OPINION
After winning the Championship last season, where do Wolves go from here? It would be interesting to know what the ambitious are from within the club, but the fans certainly think that they can do something special in this upcoming season. When most clubs get promoted to the Premier League, the first and only target is simply staying in the division, but the Molineux faithful are aiming higher than that because of the way they got promoted and the signings they’ve made so far. Will they avoid a relegation battle completely? Finish mid-table? Or even challenge for Europe? The sky is the limit for these supporters, hopefully they don’t aim too high or they could be in for a shock next season.
