Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club

Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club, commonly known as Wolves, is a professional football club based in Wolverhampton, England, that competes in the Premier League. The club has played at Molineux Stadium since moving from Dudley Road in 1889. The club's traditional kit consists of old gold shirts and socks with black shorts. Since 1979, the kit has also featured the club's "wolf's head" logo. Long-standing rivalries exist with other clubs from the West Midlands, the main one being the Black Country derby contested with West Bromwich Albion.

History

Wolverhampton Wanderers was founded in 1877 as St. Luke's FC. The club changed its name to Wolverhampton Wanderers in 1879 and became one of the founding members of the Football League in 1888.

The club won the FA Cup for the first time in 1893, and again as a Second Division team in 1908 following the club's relegation two years previously.
They fell to the third tier in 1923, but went on to win the Third Division North in 1923–24 and the Second Division in 1931–32.
The team was crowned English League champions three times – in 1953–54, 1957–58 and 1958–59 – all under the management of Stan Cullis.
Wolves also won another two FA Cup finals, in 1949 and 1960.

The club's most successful period came in the 1950s, when they were one of the dominant teams in English football. They won the league title three times, the FA Cup twice, and the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1972.

The club has fallen on harder times in recent years, but they have recently returned to the Premier League and are looking to challenge for honors once again.
