Strange Molineux Exit Of Bully's Stand-In

A scroll through the professional staff at Shrewsbury reminds us that connections between Wolves and Shropshire's only Football League club are as strong as ever. Among those currently in Sam Ricketts' squad are Dave Edwards, Harry Burgoyne, Matija Sarkic, Scott Golbourne, Ethan Ebanks-Landell and last weekend's match-winner, the 35-year-old Leon Clarke.

But Conor's Molineux Lift-Off Was A Long Time Coming

No Wolves player for years has attracted more national exposure than Conor Coady in recent weeks - but it wasn't always like this for the Liverpudlian. I will always remember the 3-0 home victory over Huddersfield this month five years ago as the day I met the daughter of late former Wolves keeper John Oldfield at Molineux.

How Wolves Missed Out On Prized Italian

Mel Eves has revealed how his relationship with Richie Barker helped Albion - and not Wolves - benefit more than two decades ago from the free-transfer signing of one of the brightest young stars in Italian football. Eves was among the 1970s and 1980s Molineux stalwarts saddened by the news a few days ago that John Barnwell's trusty assistant had passed away.

Strength In Depth Gave Cullis Some Welcome Headaches

The end of the 1958-59 season was approaching....Wolves were about to clinch their second successive First Division title. At the same time, the second team had long since run away with the Central League and the Birmingham League title was soon to be won for the second year running by the A team.

Death Of Former Wolves Assistant Announced

Richie Barker, half of the managerial double act from when Wolves last won the League Cup, has passed away. The former Molineux assistant had been in poor health for a couple of years and his death was announced on Twitter today by his long-time friend Alan Durban.

Yes, Coady Really DID Score For England!

More amazing still than Conor Coady's pride in finding himself wearing the England armband last night is the fact he scored one of his country's goals. The inspirational leader has been many things to Wolves over the last three or four years but definitely not a predatory marksman or master finisher.....a record of two goals in 240 games for the club makes that clear enough.

Memories Of His Magical Moment Exactly Half A Century Ago

Ernie Hunt's name has again been in the news two and a half years after his death - especially around Coventry. It was 50 years to the day on Saturday since the chunky forward joined forces with Willie Carr to conjure up his famous free-kick goal for the Sky Blues against reigning League champions Everton.

Gerry Reflects On Another Wolves-To-Liverpool Move

"We were surprised when it happened. He seemed to be happy at Wolves and then Liverpool came in for him...." It could well be a comment on Dioga Jota's early-season departure for Anfield but it was equally applicable in the case of another high-profile transfer between the clubs well over half a century ago.

Doc's Call Takes Him Away

Tuesday, September 1: Sad to think we have seen the last of Matt Doherty's rampaging runs - and scoring talents - in Wolves colours. A look at our Legends section underlines what a terrific impact he made at the club.

This Time It Is About Scoring Goals, Rather Than Stopping Or Making Them

It has taken 81 years and has come 26 years after his death but a new claim to fame for Billy Wright has surfaced. Well done to lifelong Wolves fan and prolific author Steve Gordos in unearthing the strong possibility that the club's most famous player of all time is also the youngest goal-scorer they have ever had.
