A Working Life Like No Other
Woodfield: Fitness Fanatic Who Travelled The World
When Wolves Heroes was launched, Dave Woodfield was one of those Molineux favourites we fretted over ever locating and interviewing. Meeting him, even more so. We weren’t to know at that point, of course, that we would still be going strong more than 15 years later.

Keeper With Magic In His Feet
Retrospective Tribute To Multi-Decorated Star
It is 35 years or more since I trekked up to the banks of Loch Lomond to interview Evan Williams for my book on Molineux goalkeepers, In Keeping with the Wolves.
