Enoch Powell was MP for wolverhampton.
They are also the only club to have won five different league titles; they have championed all four tiers of the professional English league, as well as the long-defunct northern section of the Third Division.
Tyre production came to an end in Wolverhampton in 2004. Goodyear? No the worst. <diva>
There were over 200 cycle manufacturers in Wolverhamptn. now none. Think about that.

1 Natives of Wolverhampton are called 'Wulfrunians'.

2 Wolverhampton was given city status along with Brighton and Hove and Preston in December 2000 when the Government declared all three 'Millennium Cities'.

3 Wolverhampton was the first town in Britain to introduce automated traffic lights in 1927 in Princes Square at the junction of Lichfield Street and Princess Street.

4 The Sunbeam motor car, built in Wolverhampton, became the first vehicle to hit 200mph when it broke the land speed record in 1927

5 The city is named after Lady Wulfruna, who founded the town in 985AD and was the granddaughter of Ethelred I. The name 'Wolverhampton' derives from 'Wulfruna's town on the hill' (heaneton meaning town on the hill).

6 The surrounding area near Wolverhampton became known as 'the Black Country' when, during heavy industrialisation of the area in the late 19th century, pollution covered the area in black soot and left the soil black.

7 Wolverhampton's most famous sporting son, footballer Billy Wright, was the first player in the world to earn 100 caps playing for his country. Wright spent his entire 20-year career at Wolves, and played 105 times for England between 1946 and 1959, captaining the national side on 90 occasions.

8 Wolverhampton is twinned with three cities - Subotica in Serbia, Klagenfurt in Austria and Ulaanbaatar in *****lia

9 The city's newspaper, the Wolverhampton Express and Star, recorded daily circulation figures in early 2009 of 128,836, making it the biggest selling regional daily paper in the UK.

10 The gold and black colours of Wolverhampton Wanderers FC originate from the city's motto 'Out of darkness cometh light', with gold and black representing light and dark respectively.

Wolves are generally thought to have become extinct in England when Henry VIII was on the throne.

However you could still theoretically receive a Wolf Bounty if you presented a dead wolf to the Powers That Be in the East Riding during the Nineteenth Century.


Don't think many of our recent ancestors made a living out of it though.


Play 2 proper forwards.

And feed 'em.


2-1 City

There seems to be an ongoing myth about us being **** on sky, recently we've shanked it against boro, brum, Brighton and weds, can anyone be arsed to work out our sky/bt performance all season? May well make grim reading

Reading is only win on Sky I can recall this season. There have been international feed games that we've won - Bristol City, Fulham off the top of my head. QPR might have been Sky too and we won that?
 
Wow. I know you've barely put any effort in, as usual Chazz, but it does look like you have, a bit, so well done, I bet Sir Ben will appreciate it.

2 strikers up front for me too, play with no fear, it's going to be the playoffs and we need to start playing each game like a cup final to get our heads right for the forthcoming ties.

Regulation 4-0 if we do. 0-0 if we don't.

You Ull.

I agree with Chazz's team selection.

Factoid - Kevin Costner starred in the 80s film 'Dances with Wolves' - a documentary about Steve Sitting Bull's goal scoring and ballroom dancing exploits.

I think it will be...

---------------McGregor
Odubajo Maguire Davies Robbertson
Snodgrass Huddlestone Livermore Clucas
--------Diomande Hernandez

I'd also like to see Aluko start, but I don't think we will, despite Clucas being poor for the past 6/7 weeks. I don't think he'll drop Huddlestone or Livermore.
