Andy Thompson Started as an Albion midfielder and, over a decade later, was hailed as an outstandingly consistent Molineux full-back – one who despatch a mean penalty. This double lower-division title winner was also a Sherpa Van Trophy hero and is a Wolves fan to boot.

Graham Turner As if winning successive lower-division titles and a Wembley cup final aren’t enough, this boyhood Wolves fan also happens to be the man who brought Steve Bull to Molineux. Very much one of those who led the club away from the 1980s brink.

Dave Wagstaffe A whole generation of Molineux loyalists were thrilled when a Hall of Fame place was found for the winger who lit up the club for well over a decade. What a provider he was for Derek Dougan, John Richards and co! And sometimes a spectacular scorer, too.

Dennis Westcott The tag ‘goal machine’ aptly fits a no 9 whose rampaging spanned the war years and those before and after. His scoring tally of 124 in 144 peacetime games included a then club-best 43 in 1938-39, the highlight a Cup semi-final four-timer against Grimsby.

Bert Williams The best and most famous goalkeeper Wolves have ever had – full of daring, agility and poise. Not for nothing was he nicknamed The Cat. Won 24 England caps as well as FA Cup and League Championship medals and was awarded an MBE in his 90s.

Dennis Wilshaw He was never full-time at Wolves but won two League title medals, was close to a place in Stan Cullis’s team of 1949 FA Cup heroes and scored ten goals in 12 England games. What might he have achieved if he hadn’t devoted much of his working life to teaching?

Billy Wright The most golden Wanderer of the lot. Immortalised for winning 105 England caps – the vast majority as captain – and a Wolves first-teamer for 20 years. Utterly loved by all who knew him and has a statue and a showpiece stand in his honour at the stadium.

1954 conquerors of Honved Molineux’s most famous ever game was not a League blockbuster, nor a big cup-tie. It was a friendly – in name at least. This titanic clash was a matter of national pride, followed avidly by the whole country and brilliantly won by Stan Cullis’s men.

2003 Play-off Final Winners For many fans, May 26, 2003, was a day without rival; the Bank Holiday afternoon on which Wolves blew Sheffield United away to reach the Premier League for the first time. Three first half goals, then a Matt Murray penalty save – could it get any better?
