Great moment of triumph: Wolves' Paul Ince and Paul Butler lift the Nationwide Division One promotion trophy after a hard-fought victory over Sheffield United in the play-off final at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff. In this iconic image, Paul Ince, the team's captain, and Paul Butler, a key defender, proudly lift the trophy above their heads in celebration, basking in the joy of their team's promotion to the Premiership. The scene is set against the backdrop of the Millennium Stadium, the historic venue that played host to this thrilling and tense play-off final. The 2003 Nationwide Division One play-off final was a closely contested match between two determined sides. Wolverhampton Wanderers, under the management of Glenn Hoddle, had fought their way through the play-offs after missing out on automatic promotion by just a single point. Sheffield United, managed by Neil Warnock, were no pushovers, having finished third in the regular season. The game ended in a goalless draw after 90 minutes, setting the stage for a nerve-wracking penalty shootout. In the end, it was Wolves who emerged victorious, with goalkeeper Matt Murray saving the decisive penalty from Sheffield United's Chris Morgan to secure promotion for the Midlands club. This image captures the raw emotion and excitement of the moment, as Ince and Butler share a triumphant moment with their teammates and the Wolves fans who traveled to Cardiff to witness history in the making. The promotion to the Premiership marked a new chapter in the club's storied history, and this photo serves as a reminder of the team's determination, resilience, and the unforgettable journey to the top.
