Landmark: Due to injury to Sammy Burton, Jimmy Mullen becomes the youngest ever player to appear for Wolves in a League match.

After the match Mrs. Mullen says, ‘I’m pleased with Jimmy’. Leeds United’s Harry Sutherland also makes his League debut. This is also Wolves 500th Football League win at Molineux.
