Countdown On Among Excited Canadians
Feeling indifferent about a major tournament that is taking place in our season? Not happy about the choice of location? If the answer to the above questions is ‘yes’, you will by no means be alone. But stimulus has come our way, as it so often does, from a very good friend on the other side of the Atlantic.
Tales From The Couch
Toby Adds To The Party Spirit
Toby Andersen’s healing fingers and palms – among the key ingredients behind the Molineux scenes around 50 years ago – have been busy once more; this time shaking the hands of many of the players he was paid to nurse back to fitness.

Following A Familiar Pattern
Wolves Still Looking To Foreign Fields
For almost 70 years, Wolves appointed only English managers. Now, for a decade and a half, they have exclusively installed men either born beyond our border or at least those who pinned their colours to another flag. The football affiliations of the club’s bosses since Glenn Hoddle departed in the summer of 2006 makes increasingly cosmopolitan reading – Ireland, Norway, Wales, Wales, Italy, Scotland, Portugal, Portugal and now Spain.
A Notable Throw Of The Dice

“I didn’t like taking throw-ins at Highbury. There was so little room between the touchline and the step down to the terraces. I liked a few steps before my throw. It was okay for Malcom Macdonald, who threw from a standing start.” Bobby Woodruff was talking of the battle for who could take the longest throw-in. Older Wolves supporters will recall the thrill on the Molineux terraces from 1964 to 1965-66 when the Wiltshire man hurled missiles into the penalty area, often with devastating effect on the opposition defence.
