Things are still anything but smooth for the Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League. With only eight points from 24 matches, they are firmly rooted at the bottom of the table, now 18 points away from safety. However, the Wolves have now earned themselves plenty of sympathy points from football fans with a charming and honorable gesture.

At their home game against Newcastle about two weeks ago, a clip went viral showing a young Wolves fan breaking into tears after his father stole one of his chicken nuggets. Who knows if his team’s point that day was enough to comfort him.

By now, though, that annoyance is surely a thing of the past. At last weekend’s home game against Bournemouth, the Wolves made up for the father’s nugget theft.

Mascot Wolfie delivered a brand new portion of chicken nuggets directly to the young fan named Rory at his seat in the stadium—accompanied by the stadium announcer’s words: “We hope these nuggets make up for the disappointment from two weeks ago. And this time, Dad, you’re not allowed anywhere near the nuggets.”

And it didn’t stop with the culinary surprise: the club also threw in a brand new Wolves jersey for their loyal fan.

So it’s pretty certain that Rory now sees his dad’s nugget theft in a different light. Either way, the Wolverhampton Wanderers have surely created a very special childhood memory here.
