In the 2000's, The Musketeers fanzine was issued three times a season, edited by Terry McIntyre and Steve Wright.
The Musketeers Dec 2001
History
Yorkshire Wolves : Over 18 years of support
Yorkshire Wolves started life in February, 2000 with an article in ALOB (A Load Of Bull fanzine).
First known as West Yorkshire Wolves, the first edition of The Musketeers fanzine appeared in August, 2000.
From the initial three founder members of WYW, the club quickly grew to 29 members from all over Yorkshire.
The original committee comprised of Chairman Ron Powers, Secretary Andy Doody and Treasurer Jim Fisher.
Members met approximately every three weeks at the New Inn, Bradford Road, Brighouse, West Yorkshire.
Looking for a club representative, the committee approached Wolves iconic 1970s midfield player Kenny Hibbitt.
Ken was pleased, (as the club were) to accept the position of Honorary Club President, especially with his Yorkshire connections.
Fanzine : The West Yorkshire Musketeers review
West Yorkshire Wolves have produced the first edition of their fanzine The Musketeers. The front cover of the August 2000 issue illustrates many of Wolves all-time greats.
The gallery shows Derek Dougan, Billy Wright, Mike Bailey, Kenny Hibbitt, John Richards, Kevin Muscat and Steve Bull. Inside the yellowish gold covers are 20 pages of fascinating articles donated by their membership. The variety of pure Wolves stories and range of aspects covered makes for totally absorbing reading. The contents list is conveniently positioned at the front of the fanzine which includes : Stop Me If You've Heard this before.., How I became a Wolves fan - It's All My Dad's Fault!, The Crew Are Back, A Cautionary Tale - Only Half True, West Yorkshire Wolves Campaign For Noise, Memories of Port Vale, Programmes Through The Years - Part 1 and Alternative Chants. There are lots of interesting photos, including one of West Yorkshire Wolves watching the 3-0 demolition of Fulham on 30th April at The New Inn which is their Brighouse HQ. Two Wolves flags were held aloft, one of which is a huge St. Georges flag with West Yorks written in white across the red horizontal strip of the cross and WWFC in four separate black letters in each corner. Another photo showed how West Yorkshire Wolves had added their own tribute to all the others at Elland Road in memory of two Leeds fans killed in Istanbul. This nobel gesture was initiated by Andy Doody - The Dood. Andy was instrumental in starting the club back in February, when he placed an article in ALOB appealing for other Wolves fans in the area to come forward. The club plan to sponsor Temuri Kesbaia's kit at a cost of £265 which would give them advertising in eight to ten match home programmes with their name and contact info. The big news story reported in The Musketeers was that an old and well-loved Wolf now has another reason to be in touch with his West Yorkshire roots. Kenny Hibbitt has accepted an invitation to become their Honorary Life Present. Kenny comes from the White Rose part of the world and his mother and sister still live in the Bradford area. Although living in Bristol, he does work for Radio West Midlands (Radio WM) and suggested meeting members for a pint when they have a good turn-out for a Wolves home game. There is a special feature on Kenny which highlighted his fabulous Wolves career which at the time elevated him to cult status and now a Molineux Legend.
A couple of past memories..
Andy Doody, and other club members, attended Wolves pre-season friendly in Antwerp in July 2001.
In January 2013 v Blackburn, Sky TV cameras captured members stood in front of the Steve Bull Stand,
holding a very large Yorkshire Wolves flag to welcome new Wolves manager Dean Saunders to Molineux.
In April 2014 v Coventry City at the Sixfields Stadium, YW welcomed Erick Wolf from the USA into their ranks.
The 1-1 result of this League One game played at Northampton, kept Erick's Wolves unbeaten run record intact.
Erick, (sporting a green headband) along with other Yorkshire Wolves members, can be seen in the Gallery below..
