In RaWZ we trust....Amen.
Lost 1-5 on that Tuesday afternoon.
Dick Plumb scored the consolation goal against a very good Wolverhampton side,Dougan,Richards,Hibbert & the rest...I must admit I would not have fancied a exit from Molineux after dark with all of those subways.

Thanks Olds. I had totally forgotten that it was such a mauling. I stayed out of those subways and I remember running through stationary traffic and jumping over a barrier to get across the road. I was very innocent after the WBA game. We came out of the ground in very high spirits, singing with joy. That didn't last long! Suddenly we were surrounded by young lads in their late teens and 20's who started kicking and punching us. We legged it! A sharp lesson learned. I never got caught like that again!
