Good News And Goodbye!

No Gentle Letting Down For Colin

Colin Brazier has revealed how his six-year Wolves stay came to a sudden and premature end – in a way that somehow summed up his career. It was a case of one door opening and another shutting firmly in his face when the club’s 1980 League Cup final substitute was greeted with the fateful news by Ian Greaves 15 months later.

Way Back When

How The Major Shamed Cup Flops

Disappointed that Wolves didn’t put Crystal Palace away at the first attempt in their FA Cup meeting at Molineux yesterday? Mick McCarthy’s mood, it would appear, was much lighter than that almost 80 years ago of one of his predecessors, Major Frank Buckley, after a third-round defeat against Mansfield.

Kindo On Menu For Spice Night

Steve Heads For Lancashire Hot Pot

Steve Kindon has been booked as the ‘aperitif’ for corporate fans at next week’s spicy encounter between Bolton and one of his former clubs, Burnley.

Beach Boy Loving Life Out West

Pee Wee’s Contented Glow

There are surely worse jobs than being head coach of the San Diego Sea Lions from division two of the Women’s Professional Soccer League. That is the ‘fate’ of Paul Dougherty, remembered fondly as Pee Wee, the tiny midfield dynamo of mid-1980s Wolves – and he is clearly very happy with his lot.
