😊
Except for almost very matchday thread, the Couhig takeover and most of the Championship season...I agree.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I’m not sure I can be bothered with it all any more. The likes of Dan Rice have turned modern football into a bore fest.
it won’t be long before they are moving WWFC into another identikit stadium miles from High Wycombe.
I think I might just find something else to do and leave Mr Rice to bore his way through endless meetings going through the data analysis , before putting out a bunch of identikit players tippy tapping their way through another dull game.

Really? The original gasroom existed in a state of more or less perpetual guerrilla warfare.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I don’t think I’ve ever see our fanbase and in particular the Gasroom so divided before!
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Some Luton fans on their forum already moaning that he's got a three year contract.
'We'll give you a year mate, see how it goes...'
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
So Matt wanted to stay here, but had numerous interviews and left the first one offered. The owners wanted him to go, but expressed their disappointment that he's gone.
The thing is, no one, not even the ITK's ! Know 100% everything that has gone on, so everyone is just clutching at straws whichever way they want the story to go.
Unfortunately I have (probably like many others) in life found out during very personal/family situations , that there is always two sides to the story.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I like the Couhigs. They could be bombastic (and I very much agree with @Erroll_Sims about the ruthless business streak), but you get the idea you could have a pint with them and an honest conversation about the club (as I am sure some of you did).
RC boasted when he took over that he would respond to any email within a day. I tested him on it, and got a response in two hours. I am not sure if he kept that up, but fans of most clubs would be blown away by that level of communication.
There were things to criticize - I did not like the jibes at 'idiot fans' for example - but even with that, you get the feeling it was coming from a very human place. They were around the club all the time, and behaved like absolute fanboys.
I will always think the best ever owner possible was the Trust, but the Couhigs were absolutely what we needed, when we needed it.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
TBF I didn't dislike them, I however recognised the ruthless business streak below the veneer of southern charm.
I thought overall Pete was a decent chap who became highly enthusiastic about us over the course of the enforced covid/visa sojourn in leafy Bucks and seemed to genuinely enjoy his time here.

Sounds like a very good move for him.
All the best Jason.
