 It`s that time of the year again when fans from various teams meet in the "Rivals Challenge" - Its on Sunday as Wolves try to wipe away the memories of last year and claim the title.

 The Rivals tournament is a competition arranged by fans from four teams, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Sheffield Wednesday, Walsall and West Bromwich Albion as the teams battle it out to earn the pride of the fans - a competition nobody wants to lose.

 The tournament like last year is for the "Everyman Charity" - a charity who fight against Testicular Cancer and fans will hope to raise a four figured sum, similar to that raised last year again.

 Last years event was won by West Brom, Sheffield Wednesday came in second place (Wednesday and the Albion managed to score more goals on that day than their respective clubs managed all season) with Walsall coming third and Wolves, the hosts, slacking in fourth place - but this year we hope it will be different.

 The event takes place at East Park, Wolverhampton near Manmore Green greyhound stadium and the first game starts at 11 am.

 The event, as backed by the Midlands very own Radio WM is free to enter, however spectators will be expected to donate a little to the Charity.

 So, if you would like to support the event or show the other three teams how nice the Barclaycard Premiership logo on your new shirts looks then come along.

 We look forward to seeing you there, Afterall, We Are Premier League, Remember?
