Wedding miss
Print Edition
Wolverhampton Wanderers fan Peter Abbott was to miss his first home match for 37 years yesterday when he abandons the delights of Molyneux to be at his stepdaughter’s wedding. “I’ve been trying to get my head around this for eight months but I am past that now,” he said, resigned to missing the League One match against Coventry City. The last home match the 56-year-old missed was against Tottenham Hotspur in March 1976 and since then he has missed one other game, away at Blackburn Rovers in 1985 when his train broke down on the way to the ground. Abbott, who lives in Ipswich and has a 530-kilometer round trip to Wolverhampton and back, has seen a total of 1,902 matches since March 1976.
