EDITORS COMMENTS
In an unexpected and memorable start to the 2009-10 Premier League pre-season training for Wolverhampton Wanderers, manager Mick McCarthy opted for an unconventional mode of transportation. Abandoning the usual team bus or car, McCarthy chose to kick off the new campaign on two wheels, riding a bicycle through the club's training grounds. The image captures McCarthy in full focus, pedaling determinedly while keeping a watchful eye on his players as they followed suit, some on foot and others on their own bicycles. The scene exudes a sense of camaraderie and unity, as the team prepared to face the challenges of the upcoming season. This photograph, taken by Sam Bagnall of AMA, encapsulates the spirit of innovation and determination that defined McCarthy's tenure at Wolves. The previous seasons, marked by matches in the 09-10 campaign, had seen the team battle through highs and lows, ultimately securing their place in the Premier League. As the team embarked on their pre-season training, McCarthy's unique approach to the first day set the tone for a season filled with surprises and resilience. The bicycle ride not only served as a symbol of the team's commitment to fitness and hard work but also highlighted McCarthy's ability to inspire his players and inject a fresh perspective into the squad.
