Saw Kenny start a thread for in-the-moment celebrations. I want this one to be focused on collecting and preserving our best memories from this season. Pictures, stories, whatever is. Let's keep a little time capsule of these moments.
 
Think we should save this here, for a start.

And I love these two especially.

Sheffield Utd and Middlesbrough my 2 live games and what games
 
Neves goal at Hull. Proved what we had. Last minute winner v Bristol city. Turned around a loss. Ruddy penalty v Cardiff. These are my 3 defining moments
 
Took a flyer at the start of this season as I thought it might be on, bought 3 season tickets for me and my kids and stuck a few quid on us to win the league.

It's been the best gamble of my life, this season has been bloody fantastic and it's been a privilege to watch the best team and players I've seen in my 33 years of watching wolves.

Thanks Fosun and Nuno.
 
How we reacted after each defeat was huge, especially Cardiff and Villa. v Cardiff we were bullied and schooled in the dark arts...never happened again. v Villa we could have easily crumbled but took 5 wins and a draw.

The away victories at Bristol, Boro & Cardiff mentally tested me so no idea how the players coped

I had the same feeling at the season start and got my first ever season ticket. :breakdance:
 
Though it's not really gong to be official win tomorroq effectively wins the title that would beed to be one hell of a goal difference turn around

For goal difference to come into it we would have to lose every game and Cardiff win every game. If Cardiff won every game 1-0 and we lost every game 1-0 the current 11 deficit would be reduced to just 2. If Cardiff overhaul the points difference then the goal difference between us will be negligible.

It won’t happen because we are going to wrap up the league next week at Notlob.
 
Cardiff (h), Fulham (a) for me... STILL havn't Wolves win live...

Have managed 11 games this season - the bad (QPR & Fulham away) & the good (Bristol City away & Derby at home)

This has not been a procession, but has appeared inevitable from some way out
 
If I had to choose just one moment to sum up the season it would be the Bennett winner at Bristol. Batth sent off, Nuno sent off, and yet we still won in the 94th minute - with a goal from a player we signed on a free that - thanks to Nuno and his coaching staff - has had a brilliant season
 
The Bennett goal is my favourite ever moment attending a game. It was absolutely nuts.
 
The 3 aways at Bristol City, Boro and Cardiff. Not sure which one was better but the feeling of being at those games and us winning them the way we did will stay with me forever. No other team in the league would have won all of those games in the circumstances.

Agreed. It was the first time we were really being put under pressure as leaders and the swell of sentiment against us was starting to come to the fore (Johnson saying beating us would be good for the league) - things could have worked out very, *very* differently had that game gone the other way. But after that result I was convinced we would do it, even though it was only December. It was the stuff of champions, basically, and the team showed that even if they had setbacks they would find a way.
 
The Bristol game was the most emotional game I have been at - even managed the 3 mile walk back to Temple Meads station without thinking about it

The scenes at the end in the away end were surreal & incredible

Not the best game I have seen by us, but on another planet for emotion
 
Bristol last minute winner, the late penalty drama at Cardiff and Rubens worldie. That's my three favourites.

It's been great to be part of promotion on TWF, last time in 09 there was no TWF so I used 606 and there was a lot of bellends on there.
 
Seeing us win at Boro... FINALLY! turning "premier league bound Bristol City" over at the death and 2 missed pens at Cardiff. Today was fantastic
