Re: 2024... What a year!
No more ridiculous than me reading that the new President of Georgia is an ex Man City player and wondering if that could somehow affect WWFC,
Re: 2024... What a year!
I remain cautiously optimistic, such is the nature of modern football and ownership. As a club, Wycombe has fought against the tide of modern football for a long, long time. We’ve done things our own way, with GA’s rag-tag/rock ‘n’ roll football style, Trust ownership, and even the Couhig brand of ownership a complete anomaly compared to many others. The direction being set will transform the club and it will no longer be so parochial or remain under the radar. Whether that changes how I personally feel about the club and my role as a fan, I’m not sure yet. I’m a sentimental sort and probably a glass-half empty person naturally averse to change. But there are plenty of reasons to be excited.
In terms of this calendar year, the transformation and turnaround orchestrated by MB and his team has been sensational. I couldn’t be happier for him and I hope at the very least that he is the one in control of his managerial destiny, wherever that might lie in future.

You weren’t much involved with the comings and goings at the time Nigel played for us, were you?
Re: 2024... What a year!
That will take years to achieve, hence we're laying the groundwork now. This interview set it out well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eNu8ATK5Go
Re: 2024... What a year!
There's no real evidence that "the club" is funding the academy or any increased spending on the pitch out of income which we've been told for years is too low to fund itself.
Let's be honest, it's his money, if "the academy project" is the hook to bring him in then it's up to him in which order he spends it.
Re: Other Football
Them dropping like a stone is attractive but I wouldn't be too sure that their income wouldn't also go up and additional publicity hungry investors, marquee has beens and sponsors pull them into a new bracket.
Re: Other Football
They talked about it on the docco...but surely being a yo-yo team suits the documentary.
Hopefully, we'll get two episodes (first obviously) and a season defining top of the table clash at Adams Park!
Re: Rumour Mill
I do like the carrying it out from the back...not so keen on Franco often being so far off his line though. Suspect other teams might keep an eye on that going forwards...
Re: Rumour Mill
Low and Taylor together mean we can play out from and back to Ravazolli with confidence and pace, drawing in the opposition forwards to chase shadows. When we tried that with Keogh it was slow and anxiety provoking. If we can keep Taylor then Skurra who trains in that system is worth bringing in as I think he has the fundamentals to build on.
