Hi Wolves fans. I'm writing a book, Lifted Over The Turnstiles 2, a follow-up to a book I did a couple of years ago about old football grounds (and why the experience of watching games there was better than it is nowadays). The new book is mainly about Scottish football grounds, but will have a chapter on grounds south of the Border, including (of course) Molineux.
I have some photos of how the ground used to be. I can't, however, seem to find definitive info on how long it was that the John Ireland stand was 100 feet away from the pitch. When was this rectified? And, in fixing the problem, did Wolves move the pitch, or was the JI stand demolished?
I imagine the pitch was moved, as the JI stand is now the Steve Bull Stand, isn't it?
Please excuse my ignorance guys.

As an aside, I'm loving the fact that Wolves are now back to being a force in English football. That's how it was when I was a lad, and (from my Scottish viewpoint) football in England never looked right without Wolves in the top division.
