Graham Turner With Hereford Chairman Jon Hale |
Former Hereford United manager Graham Turner was back at Wolves the other evening talking about his time at Molineux with Matt Murray.
He was in charge from 1986 to 1994.
Below are a few of his comments as posted by the Express and Star.
“It was a wonderful night and one which I really enjoyed,” said Turner who is currently advising the Bulls in their search for a new boss.
“Just to come back here and speak to so many fans, and listen to their stories of what they remember about my time in charge has been really special.
“As I think everyone will remember, the club was in a really bad state when I first arrived, having gone from the first to the fourth divisions and twice almost gone out of business.
“Up until a month before I took the job, I had been managing in the top division with Aston Villa, and the only reason I agreed to become manager of Wolves was because I was a supporter of the club as a boy, and my hero was Billy Wright.
“I
know we couldn’t quite take that final push to reach the Premier League
but when I look back now, there is a lot of pride in what we achieved
together as a group from where the club was when I first arrived.”
