I am ecstatic - one of the proudest moments I can remember after decades of supporting
the Wolves! A team I have supported and watched regularly since I was 14 years old! And Ebanks-Blake did it - our top goal scorer returned to this game after being out for 3 games and in classic Boys Own style he and with the help of one of my other favourites Andy Keogh managed to get the ball into the net and clinch promotion for us!
We have won promotion to the Premiership! Any football fan will know how much this means to us. The
carnival atmosphere at the ground before and during hte game surely helped inspire the players! And it's Hi Ho Wolverhampton.....
Next season we will play Manchester United! :) My sons have already told me they will get me a ticket for the Wolves v Man U game (they are members of Man U) - then added they will be easy to get cos no one will want to see the game!!!!! hah! (I do of course keep on reminding them that the last time we played Man U at Molineux 6 years ago we won 1-0! )
Any way I digress.....I was at a BookCrossing meetup yesterday afternoon (with Wolves scarf and my Wolves mascot for luck!) when the game was played, checking my mobile for news - signal was bad though and it was taking ages to load, so plan B was put into action and my son Simon sent in regular texts to let me know any goals of the Wolves game and those of other crucial games like Birmingham anc Cardiff (had a good laugh at Cardiff's expense - they lost 6-0!!!!!)
Wolves are 6 points clear with 2 games to go so although Birmingham could win t
he championship - IF they win both games AND score more than 10 goals in those games - I feel in my heart of hearts that we have done something which was just a dream a season ago!
I love McCarthy (
sirroy will remember I said otherwise a few years back!) what a fabulous young team he has built up - I had wondered what would happen to the club when Jack Hayward sold out 18 months or so ago - but I have to say the new chairman has lived up to his word! Yay the Wolves!
