Wolverhampton knew they were in for a real challenge, facing a strong Stafford side including several players registered with professional clubs including Aston Villa but the game began evenly, with chances created at both ends of the pitch. Sienna Johnson tested the Stafford goalkeeper early on and at the other end, Eva Biddulph, making her debut for Wolverhampton Schools, looked confident from the start — pulling off a string of impressive and intelligent saves to keep her

Wolverhampton faced a strong South Birmingham side, who were top of the league with a 100% record, and matched them for long spells in both possession and chances created despite missing key players and having to play an unfamiliar 8v8 format. Thai created our first chance with a well-worked effort that went wide in a bright opening, and Fabien also went close after good work from Hassan in midfield, but eventually South Birmingham took the lead and we were rocked back on our

From the outset, this was a closely contested encounter with Kings Norton but Wolverhampton created the first clear opportunity when Mustafa volleyed a dangerous cross across the face of goal. Corban did well to get his head to the ball, but it was just too high for him to direct it on target and we had cause to rue this missed opportunity when our opponents finally broke the deadlock with superb effort into the top orner of the net which gave Jakson no chance. We responded p

A much-changed Wolverhampton side faced a challenging fixture against North Shropshire with three players making their league debuts and others returning after absence. As a result the team took a little time to develop into a cohesive rhythm but they nevertheless competed well in the early stages.

The Under 12s entertained East Riding in this Champions Cup fixture and for long periods there was so little to separate the two sides that our management team of Leigh and Rob could see strong evidence that our girls are making real progress across the pitch. Despite putting together some excellent passages of play, and moving the ball really well through midfield, however, we were never able to capitalise on opportunities which came our way whilst our opponents were fortuna

Wolverhampton started the game brightly with Alessandro rattling the post early on, but it was Erdington who struck first and they soon doubled their lead when a low shot slipped under Stefan to give them a 2-0 advantage. It got even worse when a lack of defensive organisation allowed them to add a third but this only served to spark us into action and Ciaran pulled one back with a precise finish into the corner. Minutes later we were extremey unlucky to see an effort come ba

Wolverhampton were caught cold against South Birmingham, falling 4–0 behind inside the first half with a mixture of unforced defensive mistakes and a series of slick, well-worked South Birmingham moves all contributing to our downfall. Just when it appeared that Wolverhampton were dead and buried, however, a moment of brilliance offered up a brief lifeline and clearly lifted our spirits. Lucas meeting a dropping ball with such accuracy that his superbly struck volley gave th

The u13 girls entertained a well-organised and competitive Swansea team and found themselves pushed back in the early stages as the Welsh girls started brightly under the lights.

Wolverhampton and Harborne served up a thrilling match, full of quality football, sharp passing, brave tackles, impressive saves, and certainly no shortage of goals but this game was to feature one of the most outstanding debuts in our long history. Few can surely have made the impact that Cairan Khunkhuna produced as he announced his arrival with a superb hat trick. The first of these goals,which brought us level after we had conceded an early penalty, was a great strike f

Wolverhampton started brightly in this league encounter, with Fabien thriving in his new role as central striker, and he opened the scoring by reacting quickest to a loose ball in the Aston defence before rounding the goalkeeper to slot home. He almost doubled the lead shortly after, connecting well with a fine cross from Thai, only to be denied by a strong save, and as the pressure mounted it seemed only a matter of time before we scored again. It duly arrived when Ollie sm

The u11 Boys had the thankless task of travelling to Bidston Leisure Centre to play a National Cup tie against a Wirral side who are one of the strongest district sides in the country.
