There was something about the scenes at Ashton Gate on Wednesday night that felt different.
Not just Sean Neave’s extraordinary late double or Wolves climbing into the Championship’s automatic promotion places.
It was the celebrations afterwards. Players embracing, coaching staff united and supporters singing together.
Similarities of Ryan Bennett’s last gasp winner during the Nuno era were not lost on many.
For a club that has spent so long dealing with division, frustration and uncertainty, those moments shouldn’t be underestimated.
Because while performances, formations and individual brilliance dominate the conversation, the single biggest improvement at Wolves this season might be something far less tangible: the character of the football club.
