Wolverhampton Wanderers fans were given very little reasons to be pleased throughout the 2025/26 Premier League season, and the club is now preparing for its first appearance in the EFL in eight years as a result.

In his first full season at Molineux, Rob Edwards hopes to replicate the club’s promotion from the Championship to the UEFA Europa League under Nuno Espírito Santo, where they won the title.

The 43-year-old has still divided opinion among WV1 fans in his first months in charge, having left upcoming divisional rivals Middlesbrough in controversial fashion just months after being appointed at the Riverside Stadium, but he will hope that everyone associated with the Black Country outfit is united ahead of the upcoming 46-game season.

It has been well acknowledged that Wolves require a substantial reconstruction, but early signs of transfer activity are promising.

Despite the fact that the club is reportedly set to lose Joao Gomes to La Liga giants Atlético Madrid for £39 million, his midfield partner, Andre, surprised many by agreeing to a new four-year contract ahead of the Premier League season’s final day, while Kieran Trippier has’verbally agreed’ to sign an initial two-year deal, and links have emerged between Wanderers and both Jordan James and Ellis Simms.

After such a terrible season, particularly at home, some clubs may be concerned about a loss of matchday revenue as well as overall support for Edwards and his players, but this has not been the case.

Wolves confirm big season ticket change ahead of 2026-27 EFL Championship season.

That’s because, on the morning of Saturday, May 30th, just six days after the conclusion of their relegation campaign against fellow second-tier newcomers Burnley, the club’s official X account revealed that 20,368 season tickets had been renewed at Molineux, despite the fact that the new season won’t begin for another two and a half months.

Existing season ticket holders had an original opportunity to renew, which concluded on Friday evening, with prices lowered by 25%, despite the fact that the Championship calendar guarantees four more home fixtures.

Due to such reductions, the most costly adult season ticket renewal cost was £699 in the centre of the Billy Wright Stand, while those who renewed season tickets will also be able to relocate between 9AM on Monday, June 8th and 5PM on Wednesday, June 10th.

The aforementioned number of renewals comes with a catch. Since Wolves were promoted as Championship champions in 2017/18, with Cardiff City and Fulham, season tickets at Molineux have been limited to 22,500.

That means 90 percent of pre-existing season ticket holders renewed during the now-closed window, and if Molineux sells out, the remaining approximately 11,000 tickets will come from other season ticket purchases, stand-alone match ticket purchases, and those travelling to the Midlands to support one of their 23 upcoming rivals.

Wolves’ average attendance during their last EFL Championship spell.

Despite finishing at the bottom of the table, Wolves had a better home record than Burnley in the Premier League thanks to wins over West Ham United, Aston Villa, and Liverpool, as well as victories over the Irons, Everton, and Shrewsbury Town in the EFL Cup and FA Cup, respectively.

The team takes pride in its dedicated fans, as seen by an average gate of 29,835 last season, despite apparent deficiencies, implying that 93.96 percent of Molineux was filled.

The average attendance at the historic, yet modernised stadium was 28,342 in their previous Championship season, so a similar figure would be expected this time around, due to a handful of supporters possibly not renewing season tickets, as well as the variation of eventual away allocations, given the variety of fanbase levels in the second tier.
