Wolves marching to the EPL

It'll be great to finally see my favorite English club back in the top flight. Hopefully it won't be like last time they got promoted.

 

I cant wait till Wolves come up. The EPL isnt the same without the Molineux. I just hope they can stay up and not get relegated again. The passion of the fans to me is what makes me hope the club the best success. Ebanks-Blake hopefully continues to flourish. I do miss Freddy Eastwood though

 

Freddy who? I don't think Wolves have missed him, and he's hardly proved us wrong at Coventry.

As for promotion, you won't catch me celebrating until we're mathematically there. Twelve points from the next six would do it (13 for the title).

 

Hopefully, they are promoted and stay up there in the EPL.

 

Nice Little victory on Friday!

 

they will make it tough on themselves getting those 3 points just so we have heart issues.

 

....AND IT'S HIGH HO WOLVERHAMPTON!!!

Wolves clinched promotion to the Premier League after beating QPR as the Midlands club returned to the top-flight for the first time since 2004.

What a day. I'm gutted that I wasn't at Molineux today, but I should be there for the last game of the season.

Well done. You've been top all season so you've certainly earned it.

Strange to think the tragi-comic own goal win for as over you at our place back in January was seen as a key match. We've only scored twice in 12 hours of football at home since then, both v Charlton, who we still let score a late equaliser.

Good luck next season. It could be tough, but it's not mission impossible.

 

Thanks. Earlier in the season I expected us to be fighting with Birmingham for second spot - thought you'd run away with it, especially after the 3:0 drubbing at Molineux. What happened? Nice avatar, by the way.

Next season will be tough - no doubt about it, but for now I'm just savouring the moment.

 

Really hard to say. We were playing some terrific stuff after a shaky start, then we played Southampton at home at the end of November, and somehow they looked like a pretty decent premiership team, completely outplaying us. We've not been the same since. That we managed to win 5 in a row shortly afterwards says more about the lack of quality in this division than anything else.

There was a comment by Coppell after today's latest appalling non-spectacle, where he was congratulating Wolves, saying that Wolves had a hunger for promotion and a desire to win that reminded him of the Reading team that won the league 3 years ago. He didn't join the dots, but the implication was that the current team didn't have it. It's noticeable that the biggest drop in form has come from those players who might be expecting to be in the premiership next year regardless of where Reading finish.

I know plenty of Reading fans who are actively hoping we'll miss the play-offs, as the prospect of such a mentally weak team going up doesn't bear thinking about.


But anyway, enjoy the summer, and with any luck you should have that nice championship trophy to parade as well. It's a lot nicer than the tacky european cup rip-off one that the premier league winners get.

 

Our goal difference should be more than sufficient to clinch the title, although a point would guarantee it. 50 years ago that same trophy was lifted by a certain William Ambrose Wright when we were league champions. Shame that the Premiership has since devalued it, but it'd be nice to have it back in our possession.

As for Wolves shirts/jerseys, the club shop will deliver overseas, but it isn't cheap. £10 delivery for one item or £15 for two or more. However, I think the exchange rate should work in your favour, plus the shirts are now on sale (since there'll be a change of sponsor next season). I don't think you can get shirts anywhere else (could try Ebay?).

on the day after my first ever Wolverhampton jersey arrived with #9 Eblanks-blake, who scores in the clincher but him.

 

I got mine from their official shop but I don't know how much they have left as they went down to 10 pounds for long sleeve and short sleeve and it is mostly super large sizes left.


I got lucky and in before the last mad rush. My #9 Eblanks-blake arrived in just about alittle over a week from when I ordered it. It is cool to see it with the Coca cola patches as next year obviously, we will have the EPL patches.

 

Yeah, I got mine when it was still 20 pounds as I thought that was a good deal but I didn't know they would shrink it down even more before end of the season.

 

I hope it doesn't say Eblanks-Blake on the back. You wasted a quid on an L and SEB might not appreciate the insinuation you are making

 

Oops, they spelled it correctly and I must have been too happy when typing my message here. To think, I don't drink so I can't blame alcohol.

 

With their history, you might think there would be a group over here. On the other hand, you know so many people are just parts of the so called big EPL groups.


A friend showed me the Fulhamusa website and it makes me think that there definitely should be a Wolves one now that we will be in the EPL for years to come.
