Over and out
As we head to Anfield hoping to spoil Jürgen’s farewell I thought the timing was right to announce that the Liverpool game is also going to be Wolves Blog’s last hurrah.
With increasing pressure on my time outside of the site, I’m struggling to keep the wheels turning in what’s largely a voluntary solo endeavour and the end of season 15 seems like as good a time as any to call it a day.
Outside of my own commitments, thriving social media, WhatsApp groups and all sorts of video and podcast content now exist that didn’t a decade and a half ago and I’m not sure the appetite for longer form opinion pieces on an independent site are as appealing to the masses as they were back in 2009.
I’m sure this will be disappointing news to some and for that I apologise.
The doors to the blog won’t close completely. I’ll keep it active so that the vast archive of posts and comments can be accessed by anyone that’s interested. I hope it will serve as a time capsule of opinion on the club in what’s been a mostly turbulent and rarely dull period of its famous history.
I want to extend special thanks to Ben Rasmin and Paddy Day for their contributions in recent years and of course my long term friend and co-founder Ben Smallman, without whom the blog wouldn’t have got off the ground.
Most of all, I’d like to thank the community of countless readers and commenters that have made the site what it’s become.
I could go on and on believe me, but I’m not one for long, drawn out goodbyes.
Thank you for your support & UTW.
Thomas
