Wolves fans have poured more than £4m worth of promotion hope into the Molineux coffers.
That's the final total from more than 12,000 Early Bird season ticket sales and a display of remarkable loyalty from fans who have been left largely frustrated by the team's performances this season.
But, with a promotion play-off push still on the agenda, a buoyant chief executive Jez Moxey led the rallying calls which he hopes can help Glenn Hoddle's team over the finishing line.
With about 100 more renewal applications still to be processed, Early Bird sales are slightly down on last season's figure of 12,900. But Wolves targeted breaking through the 12,000 barrier and officials are delighted with a response which has seen more than £4m of promotion dreams pour into the club.
And, with three more fixtures against Coventry, Watford and Brighton to come at home, Moxey has urged the Molineux faithful to put the disappointments of earlier in the season behind them and back the team for one final push.
"We have now got to concentrate of nothing else but making Molineux as noisy and intimidating as it possibly can be," said Moxey.
"We need as much support as we can possibly get in the home games we have got left before the play-offs.
"We are in with a shout and now is the time to get behind the team as much as we can. Our fans turn up in great numbers and I really want us to make as much noise as we can and make Molineux really intimidating for our visitors."
Wolves chose to freeze Early Bird prices at last season's levels because of the team's disappointing form before their current eight game unbeaten run.
Moxey thanked the supporters for backing the club once again and said he was still hopeful of rewarding their loyalty with Premiership football.
"We are really thrilled to have got this support and reach our 12,000 target," he said. "It is an indication of what makes this club special. We will need the support of our fans and this offer was one way of locking them in for next season.
"Hopefully, if we can go on and get promoted we will have rewarded them with a fantastic deal."
