What We Are All About
We are dedicated to promoting Wolverhampton Wanderers nostalgia and reminiscences.
Our business is tracking down former Wolves players, legends and otherwise, and talking through both their Molineux careers and what they have done in the years since. It is the ultimate in Where Are They Now pursuits.

Upton And That Sky Blue Talent Drain
To Be Frank, The Doc Dropped Some Right Clangers
Tommy Docherty’s Wolves won only eight Second Division games in 1984-85. One of those was in late October, 2-1 over Crystal Palace, and was followed two days later by the manager dispensing with the services of his no 2, Jim Barron, and youth coach Frank Upton.

Welcome to one of the newer areas of the Wolves Heroes website.
Here, we not only list every player who has appeared in a League match for the club but also the order in which they did so.
For example, this is the place to learn that a few well-known and not-so-well-known men, such as Maurice Daly and Brian Caswell, have special niches in Wolves history that they presumably knew nothing about.
In 1975, Daly became the 600th man to be given a League debut by the club while the on-loan Caswell clocked in as the 700th more than a decade later.
Please take a slow trawl through to see the entire order but bear in mind that, if you are revisiting this area, we may have made alterations since you last looked owing to a recount and the eagle eye of our checkers, Donald Noble in Coventry and more recently southern-based Scott Pritchard, whose www.wolvescompletehistory.co.uk website is well worth a visit…
