Description

You might think you know all there is to know about Wolves, but what if they're disguised in sheep's clothing and take the form of 1,000 tricky quiz questions that could give you a nasty bite? Your brains will certainly have to adopt the role of wanderer as you try to cast your minds back well over a century to the very beginning of the club's long history. Questions cover every imaginable aspect of the club, from memorable managers and players, through transfer fees, opponents, scores and awards, to every competition you can think of, and they are sure to trigger vivid and treasured recollections of the colourful characters and nail-biting matches that have made the club what it is today. With a fitting foreword by John Richards, this book is bursting at the seams with interesting facts and figures and is guaranteed to challenge even the most ardent fan as well as provide hours of entertainment for the whole family.

FOREWORD

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like a good quiz. Even better when the quiz is about a favourite topic, such as football, and better still when it’s about your favourite club. Wolves supporter, Phil Solomon, and football quiz compiler, Chris Cowlin, have put together a quiz book which will have the most ardent of fans racking their brains. Phil will be known to many of the Molineux faithful from his regular columns in the Wolverhampton Express & Star, he’s gold and black through and through. If you reckon you know everything there is to know about Wolves, well, you might have to think again. There are some questions about the club which go back before my time, and that’s saying something! There is something here for Wolves fans of all ages. It will resolve a few issues amongst friends but it is just as likely to create a few arguments. It’s great fun and a great way of learning more about one of the world’s most famous football clubs.

Enjoy yourselves!

INTRODUCTION ByPhilipSolomon

I must place on record my thanks to those who have helped me with my research for this book, particularly all the local newspapers, and librarians and of course other fans. Also, my wife Kath, for her constant assistance and support. My friend and the man known as King John to the Wolves fans, John Richards, is thanked for his foreword, as are ex and present players at the club who have helped with many personal statistics and records. I first started to support the club in 1960. That year they won the FA Cup and I have been a fervent fan ever since, whether cheering them on in the old Fourth Division or the Premier League, there has only ever been one club for me. I didn’t hesitate by joining forces with Chris Cowlin to write this book when asked to by Apex Publishing Ltd. I consider it an honour and a privilege that I have enjoyed immensely, getting even closer to the football club I consider to be the greatest in the world, Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Up the Wolves! Philip Solomon

INTRODUCTION ByChrisCowlin

I would first of all like to thank John Richards for writing the foreword to this book. I am very grateful for his help on this project and was truly delighted when he agreed to write a few words. I would also like to thank all the past legends of Wolverhmapton Wanderers Football Club for their comments and reviews (which can be found at the back of the book). I would also like to thank John Hendley (who has extensive knowledge of the club) and Peter Pridmore at Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club for his help and advice during the book’s compilation. I really hope you enjoy this book. Hopefully it should bring back some wonderful memories of this fantastic club! In closing, I would like to thank all my friends and family for encouraging me to complete this project.

Best wishes Chris Cowlin
