As fellow founder members of the Football League back in 1888, Wolves and forthcoming Carling Cup opponents Notts County have done battle on plenty of occasions down the years.
But not for almost 15 years since a goal from Steve Bull secured a 1-0 win against the Magpies in December, 1995.
The Third Round tie with County has been fixed for Tuesday, September 21 (kick off 7.45pm), bringing back memories of a particularly memorable night - also involving Bull - in the Sherpa Van Trophy.
It was back in 1988 that Wolves, on the verge of the Fourth Division title, were also on the brink of a Wembley appearance in the Sherpa Van Final.
After a 1-1 draw in the first leg of the semi final at Notts County, it all made for a tense Molineux night in front of 8,413.
But there was little need for such tension as two more goals from Bull, and a third from former County midfielder Keith Downing, earned Wolves a comfortable victory and the chance to go on and lift the trophy by beating Burnley in front of over 80,000 at the Twin Towers.
The forthcoming Third Round tie may not yet have the same prize at stake, but the Carling Cup does offer a Wembley final at its conclusion and victory for Wolves against Notts County would take them into the last 16 for the first time since being beaten by Arsenal in 2003.
And there are discounted tickets on offer for fans wishing to play their part in trying to help Wolves make further progress in the competition they won in 1980.
Tickets for the clash are now on sale online, via Telesales on 0871 222 1877, and in person at the Ticket Office.
The Notts County supporters will be occupying the lower tier of the Steve Bull Stand and the Steve Bull Upper Tier will be closed.
