Stuart: Imagine as an eight-year-old Wolves fan and Wayne Clarke moves into your street. The kids hanging out at the end of his drive, Wolves annuals and copies of Match Weekly in hand ready to sign. Through the highs and many lows of our illustrious club, the support never fades. Wolves is like Bagpuss - ragged at the seams but we love it. It's OUR club. Once a Wolf always a Wolf!

Robert: I was born in Wolverhampton and I have supported Wolves since my father took me to my first game in 1959. During the 1970s, my father was a director of Wolves and I watched every home game from the directors' box and many away games from the directors' boxes of other clubs in the First Division. The attached picture is of the Wolves 1977 team and my father, Gerry Devine, is on the front row fifth from the left. I no longer live in Wolverhampton but still support the team avidly.

Toni: I grew up in west London. I was four, my brother was six, and we needed PE kit for school. My mother marched us down Portobello Road and into a shop that sold school uniforms... I came out with a Wolves shirt (black round collar) and my brother with an Arsenal shirt. That was it for both of us. I still support the Wolves nearly 60 years later.

Eddie: I didn't want to support the same team as my brothers and my dad so I chose Wolves and have stuck with them for seven or eight years. I'm 12 now. My favourite player was Ryan Ait-Nouri because he had the same birthday and plays in the same position as me. I love Wolves and I'll stick with them!
