Wolves Captain's Armband: Former skippers to speak at dinner

Mike Bailey, Ally Robertson and Jody Craddock will recount tales of their days in old gold and black at Molineux's Hayward Suite.

The evening, called Captain's Armband, will take place on Thursday April 21.

The trio – all trophy winners during their years at Wolves – will be on stage for a question-and-answer session compered by Sky Sports' Johnny Phillips.

It follows a successful return last year when the former players' association hosted a goalkeepers' night.

"We are trying to have a theme for the dinners and think last year's worked well, with Phil Parkes, Matt Murray and Mike Stowell in such good form in front of a big turn-out," said Richard Green, of the association.

"Now we have been delighted to receive confirmation from Mike, Ally and Jody that they will go up on stage and give us some memories and new insight from the happy time they spent with Wolves.

"They were all good leaders on the field and very popular guys, with memorable experience of getting their hands on some silverware.

"The decision was taken a year or two ago to make the association more wide-reaching by opening it up to players who played 100 or more games in the illustrious past of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

"We again invite supporters now to come and join these stars for what should be a great night."

Tickets cost £55 each or £500 for a table of ten, the price including a three-course meal, after-dinner entertainment also features a comedy turn from Steve Kindon and a commemorative programme.

The function is 7pm arrival for 7.30pm start.
