Alan Cotterell, the architect who designed Molineux, looks back at 91 with warmth on Wolverhampton Wanderers. His reminiscences take in local pride, friendship and the club’s home, with moments linked to Sir Jack Hayward, Queen Elizabeth II and Christmas.
According to ExpressAndStar.com, the sit-down captures a lifetime of connection between Cotterell, the stadium and the city.
In Wolves’ long history, few figures outside the dugout or dressing room have left a deeper mark than Cotterell.
The conversation underlines how architecture and community shaped each other around Molineux, and how those relationships endured.
It is a gentle, affectionate portrait of a club and place, told by the man who helped give Wolves their home.
