MOLINEUX was swept by sunshine and filled with smiles as Forest were torn apart by magnificent Wolves.

Mick McCarthy's men climbed to the top of the Championship on the back of a breathtaking first half-display which brought four goals.

Forest were unpicked by wave after wave of fast, confident, stylish football. It was a carnival and amongst all the acclaim and joy perhaps one smile said it all.

SYLVAN Ebanks-Blake scored his second goal of the season as Wolves' promising start continued with an impressive win at Ipswich.

Last season's top scorer in the Coca-Cola Championship headed home in the 21st minute from a cross by busy winger Matt Jarvis, before midfielder Dave Edwards made his second consecutive goalscoring appearance as a substitute.

He came off the bench to score the final goal in Wanderers' 4-1 defeat of Sheffield Wednesday last week, and was on the mark again as Mick McCarthy's men made the most of Town being reduced to 10 men midway through the second half when Alex Bruce was dismissed for a two-footed challenge.

CHRIS Iwelumo made a memorable home league debut for Wolves by scoring twice in a deserved Coca-Cola Championship win over Sheffield Wednesday.

The summer signing from Charlton struck in the 28th minute to cancel out Dutchman Etienne Esajas' stylish opener and went on to score again early in the second half after Sylvan Ebanks-Blake converted a penalty.

Substitute David Edwards made it 4-1 in the dying minutes as Wednesday's early-season optimism was all but shattered in the space of 45 minutes.

Wednesday's collapse coincided with Esajas' half-time withdrawal through injury, and Wolves themselves had cause for concern when captain Jody Craddock hobbled off early on.

WOLVES battled their way to an extra-time victory against League Two side Accrington in their Carling Cup first round clash.

DEBUTANT Sam Vokes climbed off the bench to score a dramatic equaliser as Wolves came from behind twice to earn a point at Coca-Cola Championship rivals Plymouth.

Marcel Seip appeared to have netted a second-half winner for the home side after Michael Kightly cancelled out Rory Fallon's opener at Home Park.

But Vokes levelled the scores 12 minutes from time to cap a memorable first competitive appearance for Mick McCarthy's men since joining from Bournemouth.
