RE: [NSWolves] Can someone pls remove me from this googlegroup?
Luxury! I've been a Wolves fan since 1896!! But apart from Joe/Jack/John Tonks (ggfather) losing the cup final that year, my first excursions to the Mol were in 1974 - seeing the Doog play when we lost to Spurs and beat Carlisle. I remember my dad yelling at Sunderland to get his hair cut as several headers just slid off ineffectually in front of goal. It was great to be there for an EPL win in Dec 2009 when we beat Bolton. Can't wait to be there again... -Original Message- From: nswolves@googlegroups.com [mailto:nswolves@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of LEESE Matthew Sent: Thursday, 20 October 2011 8:48 AM To: nswolves@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: [NSWolves] Can someone pls remove me from this googlegroup? My first games going to watch Wolves were in the old 4th division (my old man's a Liverpool fan so I didn't inherit them through a family member who took me as a kid) and I have to say, those were some of my best times watching Wolves. Major disappointment watching us lose to Aldershot in the play offs, but from that point we had a few great years where we tore teams apart and Steve Bull was scoring for fun. Going to grounds where the away fans out numbered the home, paying blokes on the turnstiles a backhander to let us in and having a right laugh with my mates as we secured successive promotions were my 'halcyon days'.
