Wolves’ relegation stings, 30 photos of heartbreak and hope through the years | OneFootball

For Wolves fans, relegation from the Premier League was confirmed by a goalless draw between Crystal Palace and West Ham United on Monday night, a bitter blow amid familiar turbulence. Yet the club’s past 25 years mix heartbreak with hope.

The 2025/26 campaign brought only three league wins, after a start that yielded two points by Christmas and no victory until January. ExpressAndStar.com notes that supporters have become accustomed to such swings.

Since 2003, Wolves have suffered four relegations, including successive drops from the Premier League to League One in 2012 and 2013.

There have also been brighter spells, with four promotions and three league wins. The club now prepares for the second tier for the first time since 2018.

This archive gallery charts those extremes, from despair to joy, as seen since winning promotion in the Division One play-off final that year. It spotlights players and moments that still resonate with fans.
