The businessman and life long Wolves fan purchased the club in 1990, investing millions of his own personal finances into helping them reach the promised land of the Premier League in 2003.

Sir Jack, who was knighted in the 1980s for his charitable work, spent 17 years investing his own money into the club, improving Molineux and the playing squad, before he sold the club for £10 back in 2007.

On the tenth anniversary of his death, we look back at some of his most memorable Wolves moments in pictures.
