Best Of

The first Saturday in Jan 26 will be the 3rd not 4th Alan.

Last time Boxing Day fell on a Friday will be 11 years prior in 2014/5.

Teams played Boxing Day, then missed the Saturday, played between 28th and 30th, missed NYD and played FA Cup on Sat 3rd.

With FA Cup being ever more diminished, wouldn’t be a surprise to see them play Boxing Day, Sun28th - Tues 30, NYD and then FA Cup on 3rd and 4th Jan next year.

I am no great fan of the Wrexham story or their playing style, but fair play to the film stars their involvement has done wonders for not only WFC but more importantly the local economy.

I like others suspect they will be happy for 12 months or so in the Championship (if they get there) but if they establish themselves I can see them selling a fair percentage to one of the major US sports franchises.

There were a few charts, they made it clear ownership in the conference could probably be done on "TV star money", aiming higher needed "Film star money" but Championship and Prem needed "Oil money", "Nation state money" or both , can see them flogging a good percentage of it should they go up this year.

Sorry Shev...no they discussed the eye watering costs that being in the Championship brings.

It was my opinion that being a yo-yo club would suit the excitement/jeopardy of the documentary.

Of course, they may decide to sell to a New Orleans lawyer keen to own a Championship club.

It has been a truly transformative year for the club.

We have seen Matt Bloomfield go from a large percentage of fans calling for his head to being loved pretty much by all & being mentioned as a possibility for every L1/Championship managerial vacancy.

The style of football & squad have been upgraded to something that we would all like to watch every Saturday & any other day we play.

Lomtadze & his team have come in & that is instrumental in where we are & where we might end up.

Off the field we have seen the move from Marlow to Harlington with the impact this has had on training, training injuries etc. as well as the changes to the recruitment, data analysis & medical/sports science teams.

We have also seen huge strides being taken in creating an Academy structure to support the ambitions of the ownership group, but also to support the club both in terms of player development as well as financially.

So far all of this has been achieved whilst still hanging on to the core values & ethos of the club which is phenomenal - long may it carry on; because we are different, we do things our way, we are the Chairboys.

He'll be ours for good soon

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,

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?

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
