Description
12 Wolves legends have come together to tell the stories behind their favourite games from their Molineux careers, including many never before told stories from behind the scenes and bundles of photos from each match. The selected games include the 1949 and 1960 FA Cup & the 1974 and 1980 League Cup Finals, the famous floodlit friendlies against Honved and Real Madrid and tussles with local rivals West Bromich Albion. The big question is, which game will Steve Bull select as his favourite ever in a Wolves shirt? With a Foreword by Sir Jack Hayward, this book will delight Wolves fans of all ages as they relive these magic moments through the eyes of the men who made them happen
Reviews / Votes
The Match of My Life series provides a captivating collection of first-person accounts by former footballers of their careers and in particular the most memorable match they played in. There are archive pictures and statistics on each player before the players entertain us with anecdotes and memories of classic matches. The Wolverhampton Wanderers edition, edited by Simon Lowe, includes recollections from twelve club legends including Steve Bull, Bert Williams, Roy Swinbourne, John Richards and Derek Parkin. With a foreword by Sir Jack Hayward this is another worthwhile read from the Know The Score stable - Nathan Davies, The Association of Football Statisticians.More details
