Re: The definitive ex-player news thread
I was just wondering today what Wheels was up to next. Another reason to follow Shrewsbury's games/results!
Re: The definitive ex-player news thread
Shrewsbury now remind me of my 'ex-Wycombe' games on football manager!
Re: The definitive ex-player news thread
I hope you stick with Gareth if you do go down. You won't get a harder working manager.
Re: The definitive ex-player news thread
Great guy. 100% committed to the team. Will play anywhere. And one of the best headers of a ball we have had in long time. The kind of player who will galvanise a team and get them to stay up.
Re: Today...
...in 2010 (15 years ago) Matt Bloomfield missed Wycombe Wanderers 1-0 League One win over Millwall at Adams Park with a knee injury.
In 2016 (nine years ago) Matt Bloomfield was an unused substitute for Wycombe Wanderers in a 1-0 League Two defeat to Northampton Town at the Sixfields Stadium.
In 2021 (four years ago) Matt Bloomfield missed Wycombe Wanderers goal-less Championship draw with Millwall at the New Den through injury.
Re: Match Day Thread: Bristol Rovers
I've been to all of these other than Wrexham. All of them are miles more accessible than AP. The only worse located EFL ground I can think of is Oxford, and they are moving in the next few years
Re: Match Day Thread: Bristol Rovers
Is the household name any good at holding up the ball and bringing other players into attack...?
Re: 24 / 25 Season Attendance Prediction Competition
After the Crawley Town Away Game - Match 30:
Many congratulations to @wwfcblue for holding onto top spot.
Congratulations to the entire top ten for retaining their places. @mooneyman @NewburyWanderer recorded the best score - [114] - of those in the top ten, a new 6th personal best and with it replacing a previous 10th best score of 200, the difference of 86 in those two numbers produces an improvement of 8.6 in this table, enough to take @mooneyman to the fringe of the sub 100 boundary and considerably closer to @ryan_w_kirkby2 in 9th position, but not quite enough to move positions. No one else in the top ten improved on their existing 10th best score.
@Glenactico's match score of 130 was a new personal 4th best and enough to climb to 14th place on this Leaderboard.
The closest match predictions this week came from those placed around the middle of the Leaderboard.
@BSE match score of 43 was the 2nd best prediction of the day and also a new 2nd best personal prediction of the season for @BSE, good enough to move from the other half of the Leaderboard into the top half.
Congratulations to Forecaster of the Week - @williwycombe - for a new personal best score of the season and congratulations to @our_frank, who was close in all of this match weeks tables and also recorded a new personal best for the season and the largest leap up the Leaderboard this week, and to a new personal highspot in the table too.
@Alexo recorded a 3rd best personal match day score and in consequence also moved up the Leaderboard.
Chat gpt made its 5th closest prediction so far but did not move on the Leaderboard.
Outside the Leaderboard there are congratulations for @tewkesburychairboy -just four predictions so far - so no position on the Leaderboard - but so far each prediction has been closer than the previous one, so a new personal best on ever occasion so far.
I hope to complete the Bristol Rovers game updates tomorrow.
Good luck to all with predicting the numbers coming to the Wigan game - that thread should be up very shortly. @railwaybeth and I are both coming so we will be in Block R rather than just me on the terrace.
Re: The definitive ex-player news thread
Excellent news for all concerned I think. Gaz is giving the Shrews some games to remember and I think he'll keep them up. Wheels will be a useful addition.
Re: Match Day Thread: Bristol Rovers
I could make several suggestions but they are all things beyond my control….cheaper admission prices, better access and parking, greater presence in the town and surrounding areas, a better relationship with the local council etc. If we do get to the Championship I’m sure attendances will improve but I can’t do much about that either.
