We've had joy, we've had fun
We've had a season in the sun!

Congratulations KJ, the team and the the back room staff - normal service (and pride) has been resumed. Now can we please offer Stearman and Edwards new contracts before somebody else muscles in on them.

Here's to another great season next year - although don't really want this one to end.



Amazing achievement by Kenny, his backroom staff and our brilliant team. To turn the ship around Kenny had to make some tough decisions along the way. Also the way Kenny presented himself was a credit to Wolves.

Well done to all at Wolves FC especially Kenny Jacket and the Team. let's now hope that after Kenny has turned this graet Club around that Manchester United don't come after him to be thier new manager as they search for someone to turn their club back around. Even if they did, I can't see Kenny leaving now he has started something special, Also, Jose needs to watch out, there are 2 new special ones now, Kenny Jacket and Brendon Rogers (Stragely enough both used to be at Swansea).

Not Manchester United with their big budget clubs know what he is capable of. Hopefully we are bigger than any other club wanting him.

I wonder if we will get enquiries for Ikeme. We could sell him for millions but our board I think isn't looking to sell. I am glad we are a well funded club.

Found this from the start of this season in the Daily Mail. The headline was "Griffiths the key for Wolves. " by the way

So Orient were the surprise package, and Sheffield the big disappointment (well, they did lose a key midfielder). Bristol City got off to a bad start.

Wolves 11/10 (7/2)

I am now eating my humble pie after at the beginning of the season I said "Jackett wasn't the man for Wolves" boy was I wrong and it actually feels good to be wrong, this humble pie tastes quite good after yesterdays results.



Say something negative about next season ;)



Might try it lol with my track record i'll say something negative, then Wolves will go and win the league haha.



I am afraid that KJ was not my front runner but for once JM and SM made the right decision and I am not ashamed to admit I was wrong. After this season we should able to attract a few quality young players to enable KJ to build a side capable of progressing to the Prem in a year or two. Barry.

Well last summer I thought Kenny was the right person to get us out of League 1 but I didn't think he's the right person to get us into the Premier. I think he is now. He's not been at a club as big as Wolves before so he has something to prove too.

Going up in style. A tremendous performance -
Firstly of management - great management from Kenny Jackett and Joe Gallen, gentlemen, and Kenny in particular, I salute you. That is what can only be called a magnificent recovery from last season.
Nextly, because secondly doesn't sound right in the circumstances, to the players for a fantastic campaign, not yet over, for making that turnaround happen, for going through barriers which previously would have yielded disappointment and frustration to create a new belief in the club. That takes some going lads - take the plaudits, take the honours, take the title - champions. wolfshead.

This recovery would have been impossible with last season's squad. Ikeme, Stearman, Edwards and Sako have survived and done fantastically, their own games much improved. The youngsters were available last season but weren't selected. Kenny has done well with them, especially Batth, and has brought in some fantastic players.

We are 1 point off 100 now, and 3 off beating the League 1 record. Lots to enjoy.



Well done KJ and the lads superb season, you've put some pride back in our club! Over to u now 2M's release those purse strings and back KJ. We must never fall into this division again! Paul Tamworth!



Even at such a glorious glass-flowing-over time as this, you just can get beyond it being half-empty, taking a sly side-swipe at the 2Ms, can you Tamo! Come on, let's all enjoy this wonderful season - even you.



Lol, I'm over the moon were back in Championship but there is work to be done, we need more quality additions for our assault on the Championship so KJ needs financial backin! Paul Tamworth



I don't think it is about spending vast amounts, Burnley haven't.

But Burnley had Kightly.

You have to buy success (like Chelsea and Man City) or make success (like Burnley). With Kenny we have made success because the players we have bought haven't been superstars, they have been young, up-and-coming players with the right attitude. And Clarke. If Kenny can continue like that at the next level we will do very well.
