Molineux Stadium - Wolverhampton Wanderers FC
Molineux Stadium is a football stadium situated in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, England, has been the home ground of Premier League club Wolverhampton Wanderers since 1889. The first stadium built for use by a Football League club, it was one of the first British grounds to have floodlights installed and hosted some of the earliest European club games in the 1950s.
At the time of its multi-million pound renovation in the early 1990s, Molineux was one of the biggest and most modern stadia in England, though it has since been eclipsed by other ground developments. The stadium has hosted England internationals and, more recently, England under-21 internationals, as well as the first UEFA Cup Final in 1972.
Molineux is a 31, 750 all-seater stadium, but it consistently attracted much greater attendances when it was mostly terracing. The record attendance is 61, 315. Plans were announced in 2010 for a £40 million redevelopment programme to rebuild and link three sides of the stadium to increase capacity to 38, 000 seats. The first stage of this project, the Stan Cullis Stand, was completed in 2012. The next two stages were postponed because the club prioritised funds for development of the youth academy. There are provisional plans for a longer term redevelopment of every stand that could create a 50, 000 capacity

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Molineux Stadium, home to Wolverhampton Wanderers FC since 1889. Situated in the heart of Wolverhampton, West Midlands, England, this historic ground holds a special place in football history. Molineux Stadium was not only the first stadium built for use by a Football League club but also one of the pioneers in British grounds to install floodlights. In fact, it hosted some of the earliest European club games back in the 1950s. Its multi-million pound renovation during the early 1990s made it one of England's largest and most modern stadiums at that time. With a seating capacity of 31,750 (although its record attendance stands at an impressive 61,315), Molineux consistently attracted massive crowds when terracing was still allowed. However, plans were announced in 2010 for a £40 million redevelopment program aimed at increasing capacity to 38,000 seats by rebuilding and linking three sides of the stadium. The completion of the Stan Cullis Stand marked an important milestone in this project back in 2012. Although subsequent stages were postponed due to prioritizing funds for youth academy development, there are provisional plans for further redevelopment that could potentially increase capacity up to an astonishing 50,000 spectators. Molineux has not only witnessed thrilling Premier League matches but has also been chosen as a venue for England internationals and even hosted UEFA Cup Final in1972. This remarkable print is truly a testament to both its rich history and exciting future prospects as it continues to be cherished by passionate football fans worldwide.
