Wolves On This Day revisits all the most magical and memorable moments from the club's rollercoaster past, mixing in a maelstrom of quirky anecdotes and legendary characters to produce an irresistibly dippable gold-and-black diary - with an entry for every day of the year. From founder members of the Football League through to the Premier League era, the Wolves faithful have witnessed title triumphs in every division from One to Four, promotions and relegations, breathtaking Cup runs and European nights - all featured here. Timeless greats such as John Richards, Mike Bailey and Steve Bull, Billy Wright, Andy Thompson and Ron Flowers all loom larger than life. Revisit 25th March 1893, when Wolves won the FA Cup before an overflowing crowd in Manchester. 17th May 1972: the UEFA Cup final decider against Spurs! Or 13th December 1954, when Wolves came back to beat Honved, helping to restore national pride into the bargain!
Born in 1950, John Hendley was 15 years old when he began supporting his hometown club. In the late eighties he began to write historical pieces for the club's official programme and soon became a member of staff at the company that produced the publication at that time. In 1999, John achieved a long-standing ambition by becoming a full-time member of staff at Molineux. He is the club's programme editor, he writes articles for the Wolves website and also assists with the numerous press requests for interviews with the playing squad. He also acts as the club's historian.
