Defiant Wolves Women step into WSL 2 with aim to make dreams routine | OneFootball

Wolves Women begin their campaign in the newly revamped WSL 2 on Sunday away to Newcastle United, a landmark for the West Midlands as the region’s second professional women’s team.

According to ExpressAndStar.com, head coach Dan McNamara views it as the realisation of a dream and the sternest test of his eight years in charge, setting a theme of turning the dream into the normal.

Four months on from Charlotte Greengrass’ goal that delivered Northern Premier League victory, there has been little respite. Wolves have added 11 new players, while difficult calls were made on promotion winners who would not be part of the next stage.

The shift from part-time to full-time has brought challenges as players adapt to football becoming the centre of their working lives. McNamara recalled the final whistle against Plymouth as a long-sought moment, before quickly focusing on the work ahead.

With Wolves the first part-time side in years to climb from the third tier, he accepts they start slightly behind the curve. He has heard a pundit predict a heavy defeat in the north-east, yet relishes battling against the odds. McNamara says his squad want to shock people and are not simply here to enjoy the journey.
