Personalised Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Books

Enjoy a Newspaper History of Wolves

Wolverhampton Wanderers FC was formed as St. Luke’s FC in 1877. The team emerged at St. Luke’s School in Blakenhall and they later merged with the Wanderers Cricket and Football Club. Wolves became founder members of the Football League in 1888 and won two FA Cups by the First World War. Stan Cullis took over as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers in 1948 and he led the team to great success. Wolves won the FA Cup in 1949 and 1960, and the side won three First Division titles during the 1960s. Wolverhampton Wanderers took part in a succession of European floodlit friendlies in the 1950s. The club’s victory over the highly rated Honved was a particularly famous occasion, which contributed to the formation of the European Cup. Wolves enjoyed a great European campaign in 1972, reaching the UEFA Cup final. The club lost on this occasion, but Wolves won the League Cup twice during the next ten years.

He is a life long Stoke supporter and he was surprised and very happy with the book.

Fantastic 60th birthday present for a man We purchased this Chelsea football book for our friend who was turning 60, and we had no idea what to get him. We chose this item because he has been a football fan for years, plus we are able to add his name together with an inscription inside for a small fee. We ordered and paid for it, a short while later I received an email to tell me that the order had gone through and the item would be despatched soon. It arrived within the week, which was excellent. The item was 'tracked' so hopefully no danger of it getting lost in the post. A truly excellent experience and will certainly use this company again. 08 May 2013
