Wolverhampton Wanderers Round-up
Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C. Crest
The Wanderers are an old club, founded in 1877 by a pair of students attending St. Luke’s school before becoming the Wolverhampton Wanderers two years later. In 1888 the club was one of twelve that formed the English Football League.
The most dismal period in the history of the Wolverhampton Wanderers began in the early 1980’s. Serious financial difficulties almost resulted in the club’s extinction. The Wolves endured three consecutive relegation’s, sliding into the lowest tier – an embarrassing first in club history. For nineteen years The Wolves played in the lower tiers, emerging into the Premier League just one season before being relegated.
Wolverhampton Wanderers Manager
Mick McCarthy was brought on as manager of the Wolves in 2006 and has propelled the club to the Premier League.
Wolverhampton is the third club McCarthy has managed. His first was Midwall, where he managed from 1992-1996. McCarthy led the Lions to a third place finish on 1993-94, and though the club was 14 points clear of the relegation zone in 1996, he left the club for the Republic of Ireland manager vacancy.
McCarthy guided Ireland to the 2002 World Cup finals, but a clash with ManU midfielder Roy Keane created bad press. The fallout was enough that McCarthy walked in October of the same year, despite propelling Ireland from a Aworld rank of 54 to as high as 13.
After Ireland, McCarthy managed Sunderland and in three short years took the Black Cats from relegation back to the Premier League. The year in Premiership was tough, and with little money to improve his club, McCarthy was sacked with just 10 games remaining.
Now Mick McCarthy has managed the Wolves to the Premier League and has the tools to stay there, with the signing of current striker Sylvan Ebanks-Blake through 2013, as well as signing of Reading star Kevin Doyle.
Stan Cullis, himself a former Wanderer, became manager in 1947. For the first time in forty years, the club earned its first major honor with an FA Cup Final victory. Wolverhampton went on to be the top club of the 1950’s, winning titles in 1953-54, 1957-58 and 1958-59.
Wolverhampton Wanderers Stadium
Molineux Stadium has been home to The Wolves since 1889, when it was rented to the club by a local merchant name Benjamin Molineux. The first league game hosted 4,000 people; fifty-years later the record for attendance was set when 61,315 people watched The Wanderers beat Liverpool 3-1.
The Wolves installed lights in the stadium in 1953, the first club to do so, and that summer Wolverhampton played games against foreign clubs called "floodlight friendlies." Hungary had been embarrassing England in recent World Cup play, so when a Hungarian club visited Molineux for a match under the lights, The Wolves made the most of it and won, prompting manager Stan Cullis to anoint his club "Champions of the World."
In the early 1990’s, Molineux Stadium underwent redevelopment. Neglect and financial difficulties of the previous decade resulted in three sides of the stadium decaying and inaccessible. Today, the grounds have a capacity of 29,000 and there is talk of expanding the stadium to seat 40,000, dependent on the club’s ability to stay in the Premier League.
A once-proud club has made a return to prominence with a new manager and promotion to the Premier League for 2009-10.
On 18 April, 2009, The Wanderers were promoted to the Premier League with a 1-0 win against Queens Park and clinched their first divisional title in twenty years the next week.
Fulham Football Club – A Brief Summary
Fulham F.C. Crest
Craven Cottage – Fulham FC Stadium
Fulham FC makes its home at the stadium known as Craven Cottage, one of the oldest English football grounds still in use in the present day. The original building was constructed in 1780 by the nobleman William Craven to serve as a residence and a hunting lodge. The building was lived in by a number of people over its lifetime, which was brought to a close by a fire in 1888. It was left abandoned after it burned, and was not used again for any purpose until Fulham’s early members scouted it out while searching for space in 1894. After two years of work clearing out overgrowth and re-purposing the site, it was made a viable football ground in 1896. A series of renovations and additions lead eventually to the modern incarnation of the field, a still small but well-maintained ground with segmented seating areas arranged in rectangle formation around the pitch. Craven Cottage holds 25,678 at top capacity.
The 1997-98 season was the beginning of a new start for Fulham, and the team steadily gained momentum until at last breaking into the elite ranks of the Premier League in the 2001-02 season, where it has remained since, and seeing its greatest success in the club’s history by finishing close to the top of the Premiership table in ‘08-’09.
The Fulham team is the oldest professional football team in the British capital, and presently play in the English Premier League, finishing in 7th place in the ‘08-’09 season.
They are also known as the Cottagers after their stadium, Craven Cottage.
The team won a number of amateur trophies in its early days, including the West London Amateur Cup in 1887. Fulham FC turned professional shortly thereafter, joining the second division of the old Southern League in 1898.
After success in the Southern League the team was admitted into the larger Football League in 1907, where they remained and enjoyed success until 1949, saw them promoted to first division, the top flight of English football at the time.
Fulham’s home colours are white and black, and the team crest is a simple black and white shield containing the angular abbreviation FFC.
Fulham F.C. Manager
Fulham’s current manager is Roy Hodgson, known for leading the Swiss national team to qualify in the 1994 world cup and 1996 European cup, and has previously coached such noteworthy teams as FC Copenhagen, Blackburn Rovers and Inter Milan. Hodgson became Fulham’s manager in December of 2007, and although the team absorbed a number of losses in the initial few months of his tenure a late rally toward the end of the season saw the club escape relegation, and go on to higher standing in the 08-09 season than they had ever previously achieved.
Fulham FC is an English football club based in the borough of Hammersmith and Fulham in southwest London.
The club was founded as an amateur team in 1879 by members of the congregation of the Church of England on Star Road in West Kensington.
The Cottagers fared poorly in their first stint in the top flight, and their third season saw them in last and relegated back to second division, where they remained until promotion saw their most successful season yet, finishing 10th in the first division in 1959-60. The next few decades saw ups and downs, including a stint down in third division a few years later and then again in the early seasons after the creation of the new Premier League, which marked their lowpoint.
