...in 2007 (18 years ago) Matt Bloomfield came on as a half-time substitute (replacing Jermaine Easter) for Wycombe Wanderers in a 2-0 League Two defeat to Stockport County at Edgeley Park.

In 2024 (one year ago) Matt Bloomfield was manager of Wycombe Wanderers in a 2-2 League One draw with Fleetwood Town at Adams Park. Highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zR0L6HKuOY0 (includes Richard Kone's first league goal).

NB: one year on, Fleetwood Town are in 15th place in the League Two table, Wycombe Wanderers are in second place in League One.

Kone starts and scores tomorrow, kissing the badge before putting on his crown. He's going nowhere this month.

It would have to get to at least 10m for us to consider selling this month. I'm assuming if he had a release clause, it would already have been triggered.

100%.

Steadying the ship is one thing, going with the players they know.

But integrating these 4 newbies and making tough selections from a squad of 30, where quality players might not even get in the 18 is quite another thing.

Newly discovered carpark footage confirms MB and DR fell out

Exactly, and I think the quality that has come through the development programme (Mehmeti, Forino, Pattenden...) would suggest he's very good at that role.

What I can’t get my head around is why Kone would choose to move to Luton now, rather than wait 6 months and have his pick of the bunch in summer? Luton could go down and Kone would be stuck in L1 next season, but Kone would have many Championship suitors if he waits until summer. Bloomfield’s opportunities were much lower in supply, so I understand his decision. I don’t really understand why Kone would move now instead of summer.

it would be nice to hear from the club on what is happening with the head coach situation, Grace seems like a top man but we need to win games and if Saturday was a HUGE opportunity missed , if the club are serious about promoting then they need to act and act quickly....these 2 home games are not a free hit....and announcement should be made even if the new head coach just watches from the stands tomorrow

This is no disrespect to Sam Grace, but I only see him as an excellent youth / U21 manager because I think he has the personality to nurture and get more out of someone who is developing their skills rather than driving 1st teamers to achieve more and make his feelings known when they haven't met that standard.

I've never met him but that's what I see from him

So you would have a possibly fit Westergard in place of the Leahy who has set up a few goals and scored one or two?

What if Westergard is a complete bag of poo for the first few games until he is fit enough, or gets injured pulling a hamstring because he isn't fit enough to yet be included?
