Thelwell Believes Standard Would Be High This Season

One of the higher officials at Wolverhampton Wanderers, Kevin Thelwell, believes that the standard of football in the Championship would be very high this season as the teams involved are extremely strong.
The 41-year old also said that the Wolves will be countering big challenges in the season and they will have to counter them with distinction in order to finish in the top quarter of the table.
The last outing of the Wolves in the Championship was in 2012-13 and it was really embarrassing for them. They were believed to be one of the contenders for making it to the league that season, but, let alone the promotion to the league; they couldn’t even survive in the Championship. They finished at the second last position in the table with 51 points in 46 matches and got relegated to League One.
They are however back in the Championship now and they are hoping that they do well this season and get back to the top tier again. They know pretty well though that it’s not easy.
Talking to the reporters yesterday, Thelwell said, “We know we are up against it, but, we are quite positive in our thinking. Yes, there are some strong sides around, but, there is no point getting afraid of them.”
“A lot of guys in our squad have played in the Championship before and are well aware of the level of the competition here.”
“It’s a little bit tougher in the Championship this time around though. Most of the teams have played in top tier at some point of time in the past and they’ve got fantastic squads. Some of them are quite rich too and they have been making big recruitments of late. So, it’s going to be challenging, no doubt.”
