Romain Saiss cut an emotional figure after returning to Molineux for the first time in four years on Sunday, describing the place as his “second home”.
The Moroccan was a key figure in the group which took the club from the Championship to the Europa League last eight, playing more than 200 games during a hugely successful period for the Old Gold.
On Sunday he returned to Wolverhampton with his family and stepping on the pitch to greet the fans, and reuniting with the likes of Matt Doherty and Raul Jimenez, brought the memories flooding back of an era, and a dressing room spirit, which he’s never experienced elsewhere.
The 36-year-old, who left the club in 2022, has since played in Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, but watched from the stand as former side drew with Fulham and visited Compton Park in a quest to bring the good memories back.
On being back at Molineux
“It was honestly very emotional, because it’s a big part of my life, six years, so it was very, very emotional. I was so happy to come back here, because now it has been four years since I left the club. I always said I would come back one day, and I was really excited all week because I knew I would come back to see some old friends, to visit the training ground, the stadium, so I was like a kid.”

Great to have you back, Romain 💛 pic.twitter.com/L5J8rOeyKA

On a special place
“They are only good memories. We shared here an incredible moment, and it just reminded me of all the good times I had with the lads, the staff, and all of the people working for the club, because we felt here like a family, so it was really important for me, and also for my family, my wife, and my kids. It was a good, good time here, and they were very happy to come back and to spend some days here.
“They [his kids] still remember that time, the games, coming with me sometimes to the training ground, so they were really excited. I’m glad to share this moment with them also. I know this place will always be like my second home, so anytime I can come, I will do it in the future.”
On seeing some of the lads
“It brought me fantastic memories, seeing Raul [Jimenez], Doc [Matt Doherty], also some of the staff are still here, so we created something really special at that time, which helped us on the pitch to have fantastic results. We still have contact with a lot of players from that time, because it was really special. We had a dressing room that I never found at other clubs, it was really special, what we created. What we had outside of the pitch, we put the same energy on the pitch, and that’s why we did amazing things for this club.
“I cannot keep one memory in my mind, because I have so many from the Championship to Europa League, and the most important thing is this link we created between the players, and we still have today, so that’s the most beautiful things.”

On the Nuno years
“When we got promoted, we were not scared about anything, we just had confidence in ourselves to play our game, and we made sure the players who came stuck to our dressing room, to our identity, and that’s what we did.
“We got through to the quarter-final of the Europa League, semi-final of the FA Cup, we finished seventh in the league twice.  We knew we were Premier League because we deserved it, and then we just had to show our quality and character on the pitch, and it was amazing.”

Brindley Group has taken on the Chery-owned Lepas franchise in Wolverhampton, replacing the Honda dealership at the location.
The site is to be overhauled to accommodate the brand’s arrival, displaying an initial lineup of three models when sales officially begin.
Despite the switch to Lepas at the site, Brindley said its relationship with Honda was intact and it continues with the franchise in West Bromwich and Cannock.
To minimise disruption, a Honda aftersales and servicing division will continue operating directly out of the West Street location.
Che Watson, chairman of Brindley Group, said: “Bringing Lepas into our portfolio is a highly rewarding moment for the entire company.
“This progressive expansion enables us to deliver the latest breakthroughs in vehicle styling and technological capability to our client base, whilst simultaneously protecting the long-term prospects of our business and our workforce.
“The introduction of this brand highlights our ongoing dedication to shifting alongside a rapidly changing industry, ultimately presenting local motorists with unparalleled variety, exceptional value, and genuine innovation.”

England’s Aaron Rai has won the US PGA Championship, securing his first major title and becoming the first English player in more than 100 years to claim the trophy.

The 31-year-old from Wolverhampton delivered a standout final round at Aronimink Golf Club, finishing three shots ahead of his closest rivals after a composed and precise performance, News.Az reports, citing Sky News.
Rai’s victory was built on key moments, including a long eagle putt on the ninth hole and a decisive late surge featuring multiple birdies, which helped him pull away from competitors including Jon Rahm and Alex Smalley.

He completed the tournament with a 5-under-par 65, finishing at 9-under 271, and later described the achievement as “surreal” after being awarded the Wanamaker Trophy and a multi-million-dollar prize.
Golf analysts praised Rai’s accuracy and consistency, highlighting his precision-based approach as the deciding factor against more power-driven competitors on the course.

Fulham’s fading hopes of European qualification suffered a terminal blow as they were held to a draw at bottom side Wolves in the Premier League.Matheus Mane smashed Wolves in front in their final home game before returning to the Championship, following eight years in the top flight.But Fulham levelled in first-half stoppage time after the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) recommended a review when Mane caught Fulham full-back Timothy Castagne as the pair challenged for a looping ball inside the box.Referee Thomas Kirk awarded the spot kick and Antonee Robinson coolly converted from 12 yards to score his first Premier League goal – and first in any competition since January 2022.But a run of three games without a win means Marco Silva’s side sit 12th and cannot realistically finish in the top eight given they are three points and nine goals worse off than Brentford, with just a game to go.The visitors began well at Molineux and Wolves goalkeeper Jose Sa was forced into action to deny Alex Iwobi, who was left free at the back post to volley Castagne’s cross goalwards.But Wolves grew in the match with Mane drawing a smart save from Fulham keeper Bernd Leno and Rodrigo Gomes flashing a shot just wide.The goal arrived in the 25th minute as Rodrigo Gomes burst down the right and fired in a low cross.Hwang Hee-Chan controlled it before setting it back for Mane to thrash in from the edge of the box.Sander Berge should have levelled moments later but headed into the ground and over after Sa had flapped at a corner but the away side were level at the break.Mane stretched to reach a ball but only made contact with Castagne as the Fulham defender nipped ahead of him, with Robinson the unlikely scorer from the spot after the VAR review.Although Fulham dominated possession, Wolves had the best chances in the second half with Yerson Mosquera heading wide from six yards and Adam Armstrong’s dink over Leno hitting the outside of the post.Boos greeted the final whistle after a result that did little to satisfy either side.

Leeds are winless in all seven of their Premier League meetings with Brighton (D3 L4), both the most they’ve faced a side without ever winning and the most the Seagulls have faced a side without ever losing in the competition.Brighton have lost just one of their last 14 league games against Leeds (W10 D3), keeping 10 clean sheets and conceding just six goals in that run.As a top-flight side, Leeds have only lost their last home league game twice in their last 20 seasons (W10 D8), though one of these was a 4-1 loss against Spurs in their last Premier League campaign of 2022-23.Brighton won 4-1 at Spurs in their final away league match last season – not since 2012-13/2013-14 have they won their final match on the road in consecutive campaigns, with one of those victories back then coming at Leeds.Leeds have won 3-0 against Wolves and 3-1 against Burnley in their last two Premier League home games. They last won more consecutively at Elland Road between April and August 2001 (5), while they last did so while scoring 3+ goals each time between September and November 2000.Between December and February, only Burnley (1) won fewer Premier League games than Brighton (2). Since the start of March, no side has won more games in the top-flight than the Seagulls (6, level with Arsenal).Leeds are unbeaten in their last seven Premier League games (W3 D4), last having a longer run between May and November 2001 (13). They also had a seven-game unbeaten run in December/January, with this the first campaign they’ve had two such runs since 1998-99.Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored 13 Premier League goals this season, only netting more in 2020-21 (16). The last player to score more league goals in their first season with Leeds United was Luciano Becchio in 2008-09 (15).Brighton’s Maxim de Cuyper has been involved in three goals in his last three Premier League games (3 assists), more than in his first 25 appearances in the competition (2 goals).Jack Hinshelwood has scored in each of his last three Premier League games – no Brighton player has ever scored in four in a row before.

Newcastle lost this exact fixture 2-0 last season but haven’t lost consecutive home league games against West Ham since February/October 1998.West Ham are looking to complete just their third Premier League double over Newcastle, after 1998-99 and 2018-19.Newcastle have kept just one clean sheet in their last 14 Premier League games, a 1-0 win at Chelsea back in March.Newcastle have dropped more points from winning positions than any other side in the Premier League this season (27), while also gaining fewer points from behind than anyone else (3).West Ham have lost 3-0 against Brentford and 1-0 against Arsenal in their last two Premier League games. They last lost three in a row without scoring in February 2024.Newcastle have conceded a league-high 20 goals in the final 15 minutes of Premier League games this season. The only side to concede more and not be relegated in a single campaign are Crystal Palace in 2023-24 (23).West Ham have failed to score in each of their last three away league games. They last went four without a goal in April/May 2015, the fourth game of which was at Newcastle in their final away game of the season.Callum Wilson scored twice for West Ham against Bournemouth in November earlier this season. Only two players have scored 2+ goals in a match against two different former sides in a Premier League campaign – Chris Wood in 2023-24 (vs Burnley and Newcastle) and Nicolas Anelka in 2006-07 (vs Arsenal and Man City).West Ham’s Tomás Soucek has scored more Premier League goals against Newcastle than he has vs any other opponent (5). He’s one goal or assist away from being only the second Czech player to register 50 goal involvements in the Premier League (41 goals, 8 assists) after Patrik Berger (38 goals, 31 assists).Harvey Barnes has been involved in 21 goals in all competitions for Newcastle this season (16 goals, 5 assists), second only to Anthony Gordon. It’s his most goals scored in a season in his career in English football, while only in 2021-22 with Leicester has he been involved in more (24 – 11 goals, 13 assists).

Andy Burnham could end up in Downing Street — and out-of-area licensing should be worried

Andy Burnham’s name is back in the headlines as a serious contender to succeed Sir Keir Starmer, and if the Greater Manchester Mayor does eventually walk into Number 10, one of the longest-running rows in the private hire trade could finally come to a head.

ITV News reported this week that Burnham has quickly become one of the favourites to replace the Prime Minister in the event of a Labour leadership contest. The Mayor has previously signalled he would be willing to challenge Sir Keir, although his path is far from clear — he has no Commons seat, and Labour’s National Executive Committee blocked him from standing in the Gorton and Denton by-election earlier in 2026. With Makerfield MP Josh Simons standing down, the route back to Westminster may now be opening up again.

For taxi and private hire drivers, the question of who leads Labour is more than just political theatre. Burnham has been one of the loudest voices in the country on the issue of out-of-area private hire licensing — and, in particular, on the role of Wolverhampton.

In comments reported by Local Government Lawyer following a BBC investigation, Burnham said operators licensed elsewhere “shouldn’t be doing it because they’re giving plates without being able to then monitor the performance,” arguing that Greater Manchester requires newer vehicles and more rigorous checks. The BBC investigation found that around 9,000 of the private hire drivers operating in Greater Manchester were licensed by Wolverhampton — roughly a third of the region’s total.

The numbers behind the row are striking. According to figures reported by the Oldham Chronicle through the Local Democracy Reporting Service, Wolverhampton Council took in £12.3 million in licensing fees over three years, with around a quarter of its drivers actually working in Greater Manchester. Professional Driver Magazine reported that 95.5% of drivers applying for a Wolverhampton licence in one year did not live in the city.

Speaking on BBC Radio Manchester’s ‘In the Hotseat’, Burnham said: “How can you guarantee the safety of people on the streets from there? I think the reason people go there is because they don’t charge as much to licence taxis. The checks they do aren’t as stringent and it is not right.”

Wolverhampton has consistently denied any wrongdoing. The council has stated that existing legislation requires it to grant any application that meets the requirements, and that it cannot refuse an applicant simply because they live in another area. That position is rooted in the 2015 Deregulation Act, which allows private hire drivers licensed anywhere in England and Wales — except London — to operate across the country.

What changes if Burnham reaches Number 10? Greater Manchester previously sought powers to restrict out-of-area operation as part of its Trailblazer devolution negotiations and didn’t get them. A Prime Minister Burnham would no longer need to ask Westminster — he would be Westminster. National minimum standards, stronger powers for metro mayors, or full reform of cross-border hiring would all sit firmly within his gift.

Whether or not he gets that far, his consistent campaigning on this issue has already pushed it up the political agenda. For drivers in Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham and other cities watching out-of-area plates flood their patch, it’s a fight that’s only getting bigger.
