Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Agree with all of you above. This marks the end of an era that spanned everything GA and MB, and we will now become a completely different type of club. I does feel like the crossing of the Rubicon.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I keep refreshing the page desperately hoping this isn’t happening, but it is isn’t it.
It felt written in the stars Mr Wycombe was going to take us to the promised land, rewarding an almost unimaginable patience shown by the last regime.
And Luton? The most non-Bloomfield type fan base in the country. Seems a long time ago I was there watching MB send them out the league.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I genuinely don’t feel as if Blooms has had much option, which makes things all the more heartbreaking.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Come on lads, we don't know who the next manager is yet. Or what players are about to sign. We've still got a squad full of some really good people. Imagine being a Man Utd fan for an idea of what bad really looks like.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
The transfers IN are doubling.
We've not seen what we're like at selling yet.
Though 1.6m for Morley is suddenly ON.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
For all my jesting earlier, this is a very sad day. I notice that right now I don’t care much about our upcoming fixtures or the cup. It is the end of an era and the future feels very uncertain all of a sudden.
I suppose it may yet not come to pass but that is faint hope now.
Good luck to you Matt and family and thank you for being part of something so special.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
It's interesting how many posts like this you see on EFL forums nowadays. I always put it as "I have gone off football, but love Wycombe." But many are disenchanted with the whole thing.
Money does have a way of ruining everything, especially romance.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I think some people are forgetting that if Blooms leaves, it's a choice he's made. Everything else is just speculation.
It's very sad that a club legend hasn't stayed to finish the job - whatever the reasons may be - but a read of just a few posts here would suggest he'd been unceremoniously sacked...
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Very well said. Our successes under Ainsworth and Bloomfield have meant that bit more because of the bond built up over years by the respective managers that made us that bit more proud of what the club as a whole had achieved. The impression that Matt Bloomfield (justified or not) has been shuffled towards the exit by the new owners who want their own man in will certainly leave a bit of a sour taste in the mouth in the short term at least.
All the while huge amounts of money that the club doesn't have being chucked on massive gambles on players from Scandinavia feels pretty alien to our club, no wonder it feels so wrong that we're turning into the sort of profligate club we so delighted in doing a number on in the past.
