If you know someone who has gone to extreme levels to support the club they love, we want to hear from you.

Once again we’re looking to honour a Wolves fanatic at this season’s End of Season Awards, which take place at Telford International Centre, on Tuesday, May 8.

Our winner will receive a trophy and have their story told in front of hundreds of fellow fans – as well as the entire Wolves first-team squad – at the glittering annual ceremony.

We want to hear about diehard Wolves fans who have gone above and beyond for the gold and black cause.

Whoever scoops the prestigious accolade will follow in the footsteps of last year’s winner Dylan Stevens.

He received the award after the Express & Star judges were won over by his extreme devotion, following Wolves despite losing his sight after being diagnosed with a brain tumour 14 years ago.

Season ticket holder Dylan travels from Manchester to home games as well as going to away matches with his sister Alana.

“A lot of people used to say to me ‘Why are you going there?’ and I put it down to five things,” said Dylan. “I was seeing the football and how tactics work; meeting new people; travelling to new places; having a beer; and a great atmosphere.

“Now, because I can’t see, I have still got the other four like I always did. Even though it’s not the best, I can still rely on the things which I did when I could see.

Entries are now open and all you need to do is contact us in writing to the Sports Editor, Express & Star, 51-53 Queen Street, Wolverhampton, WV1 1ES with your nomination and reasons.

You can also nominate via email at sports@expressandstar.co.uk or contact us via Twitter and our Facebook page.

Supporters can nominate themselves or someone else.

Please include your name, address and telephone number with your suggestion and their contact details, explaining why you think they deserve the award. There is no age limit.

Nominations must reach us by March 30 and nominees must be free to attend Wolves’ End of Season Awards at Telford International Centre on Tuesday, May 8.

The prize is two VIP places on the Express & Star table that night, as well as a trophy to be presented on stage.

The nominees should also be available to take part in a short film in Wolverhampton during mid-April (date to be confirmed).
