Wolves History Thread

Such a stupid challenge as well. It's Darren Bent, where do you think he's going. Just stand up.

One for the anti-VAR evangelists though, if that's a Wolves player getting booted over by some hair stroking airhead miles inside the box, I very much doubt you just go 'oh well that's ok'.

Keith Andrews was outstanding in that game. Don’t think he ever got close to that standard for us ever again.

Not a lot wrong with that team really. Branch was genuinely brilliant before strangely becoming rubbish Agbadou style.

From the E&S;

Dowman’s goal against Everton last weekend was by no means the first occasion a 16-year-old had scored in England’s top flight and a Wolves player did just that 87 years ago.
At the age of 16 years and 265 days, Alan Steen made his debut for Wolves and scored in a 3-0 win over Manchester United at Molineux. In the days when teams fielded two wide players – wingers they were called – Wolves paraded two players aged 16 in those positions against United. Steen was on the right and former England schoolboy international Jimmy Mullen was on the left.

It was the first time a team had fielded two 16-year-old wingers and Steen’s parents travelled down from Liverpool to witness his big day.
His father said before the game: “He does not know we are here. We had a letter from him this morning, and he said there might be a surprise for us. This will be a surprise for him.”

Was this the game when the ref gave a penalty because Kevin Francis fell over?

Ah, that Bully goal was such a buzz!!

Osborn's tackle and pass there was excellent.

The number of times that Bull would hit the ball first time when scoring a goal was very often his secret to the success he had . Far too many strikers take a touch first , and it can delay things far too much .

Jota was good at this too.

The time between our last FA Cup win (everyone who played in that game for us has long since sadly passed away) and Bully's Wolves debut is now about the same as the time between Bully's final game and today.
