Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club

Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club, commonly known as Wolves, is a professional football team based in Wolverhampton, England. They compete in the Premier League and have been playing their home matches at Molineux Stadium since 1889, having moved from Dudley Road. The team's traditional uniform comprises old gold shirts and socks paired with black shorts, and since 1979, it also features the club's distinctive "wolf's head" logo. A significant rivalry exists with other West Midlands clubs, notably the Black Country derby contested with West Bromwich Albion.

Originally formed as St. Luke's F.C. in 1877, the club adopted the name Wolverhampton Wanderers two years later and was among the founding members of the Football League in 1888. They secured their first FA Cup victory in 1893 and achieved it again as a Second Division team in 1908 after a previous relegation. In 1923, they dropped to the third tier but made a strong comeback, winning the Third Division North in 1923-24 and the Second Division in 1931-32. Under the management of Stan Cullis, Wolves became English League champions three times - in 1953-54, 1957-58, and 1958-59. The team also triumphed in two other FA Cup finals, in 1949 and 1960. Despite relegation in 1965 after 26 consecutive top-flight seasons, they successfully returned to the First Division in 1966-67. Wolves continued to achieve success, winning the League Cup in 1974 and 1980, and claiming the Second Division title in 1976-77.

In the early 1980s, Wolves faced financial difficulties during a recession, coming close to liquidation in 1982. Over the course of five seasons between 1981-82 and 1985-86, the club was relegated four times (with one promotion in 1982-83), leading them to the Football League Fourth Division (now EFL League Two) for the first and only time in their history. However, the club initiated a rapid turnaround, finishing as runners-up in the inaugural Football League play-off final in 1987 and subsequently winning the Fourth Division and Football League Trophy titles in 1987-88, followed by the Third Division title in 1988-89.
