It’s Matt Bloomfield

He got celebrated when he left the first time - he's not going to get that again, especially if it was an acrimonious exit.

Can’t say I have, but my understanding is that he is incredibly on the button with majority of day to day affairs.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we had something from him in media very soon based on recent events.

Who is to say that his short term ambition is Championship football and he can’t achieve that with us? If we do go on to win promotion, he may well sign a new contract.

He’ll earn a better contract in the summer the better he plays until then, so it’s in his own selfish interests to do well even if he doesn’t care about Wycombe.

The last paragraph is the Trump playbook.

MK Dons owners in trouble next for fraudulently pretending to have a real football club?

Isn't 33/1 his collar size?

I'm not so sure the links between Luton and Wycombe are going to be a happy conga line.

I don't think it should be considered a stretch to say that many people are simply mourning the end of the "culture" era, and concerned about what might happen to the atmosphere at the club now that one of the main agents of that culture has been made to feel extremely unwelcome.

Yes, of course we will have money, and may get to go to places we have never dreamed of on the pitch. I know we will all be behind a new manager and enjoy the wins. But there are some things people value beyond/besides success itself, and our club culture was very special.

Don't get me wrong, I think we had already peaked in this regard, simply because there was a point where Ainsworth, Dobbo, Bayo, Blooms and JJ were the five guys heading up the footballing side of the club, and I can't think of five finer human beings to combine for culture creation! So that is not to knock any of the excellent characters (such as Grimmer) who have remained from that era, or the great new faces (Kone, Lubala, Udoh, Leahy, etc.) who are characters in their own right.

For anyone banging on about the ownership being within their rights, I don't think anyone is disputing that - for me it just raises massive questions over their wisdom and foresight, to want a very successful club legend to leave. Birmingham were "within their rights" to sack Eustace, and hire Rooney, but no-one would call that a brilliant decision.

Hopefully it all works out for Blooms and for Wycombe, but I think there is a massive amount of risk and hubris being shown by the regime to constructively evict Blooms, though they have played a blinder in the way they did it - they have managed to get many Wycombe fans to turn against him immediately! Not only that, but if the season goes well they take the credit, whereas if it goes badly they blame him for walking out the door and sabotaging it.
