Fans From All Over The World

[MasWolf]

I've just seen this really nice story in the E&S of an Argentinian guy who has adopted Wolves as his team after seeing us play during the pandemic. I love stories like this, and it seems his support for our club has had a positive impact on him. I'm always interested in how people started supporting the club - especially when it isn't the "'I'm from Wolverhampton and my family always supported Wolves" - which is ironically exactly why I'm a Wolves fan.

Hopefully we get a few more fans around the world like this chap!

From Argentina with love– Meet the Wolves superfan from Buenos Aires

Football is a game of passion, known to inspire outbursts of emotion both on and off the pitch.

I don't care where you live, pleasure is pleasure. If Wolves make him happy and he's gaining enjoyment from following us 7000 miles away, good on him.
Enjoy it my friend, distance matters not.

We're big all over the world.

It's funny isn't it. Live in reans and your neighbour supports Man U and he's the scum of the Earth. Someone in BA supports Wolves and it's wonderful. Never know what to think to be honest.

From Sweden..growing up in the early 70`s..we had our own version of Match of the Day.
Combined with pools betting,and trotting!(a rather big thing in Sweden)
Back in the 70´s in autumn and winter..not much to do than watch football from England(we had two channels on the tele back then..and most of it shwing was like puppy theathre from Chechoslovakia!)

I became Wolves back around 1975 i recon.

Remember watchin Franny Lee have a go at Bite your legs of...must have been 75 and I was Wolves..Peter Shilton was in goal for Stoke FFS!

BBC back then had some sort of television centre in the West Midlands.They were always showing matches involving Midlands teams..and Wolves were on alot.

Then I saw Kenny Hibbitt score for us..and that was it.

A swedish fan of WWFC for life.I still miss it you know..Kenny scoring.

It was a beauty(at least as I remember it)..

I’m sure I’ve said those exact words in the past?

Or was it about Sky?

To me, there's a big difference between a plastic glory hunter and people like this

That's a really nice interview. He seems a very thoughtful fellow. Thanks for posting it.

You're right! There's a big difference in supporting a team such as Man Utd, who are arguably the biggest football brand in the world, and teams like us, where many fans of the modern game have only recently learned of our existence.

Great story .
Oddly I almost gave up supporting Wolves having watched them during the pandemic .

I’m sure your stalker will be along soon to provide all of the relevant links from the last few years

I don't see the conundrum. The scenario you describe has solicited the logical response.

Argy Wolves fan = good

United next door = scum

Obviously duh.

I really enjoyed having a wolves Penfriend when I was abou 15. We would swap football programmes and he would send me newspaper cuttings from the E&S.

I still have the wolves shirt he sent me in 1986. Thanks Tim Nash

Whilst wolves were dropping like a stone down the league I was really enjoying being a fan, Sounds weird I know.

Just need to bring back those hooped socks.
