Man of the Match season update (37/46)
Here are the leaders in all major categories:
Overall votes:
- Scowen = 338
- Wing = 257
- Mehmeti = 203
- Mawson = 191
- Stryjek = 189
- Forino = 174
- Wheeler = 157
Votes per start (minimum 10 starts):
- Scowen = 13.52
- Forino = 9.66
- Mawson = 9.55
- Mehmeti = 7.81
- Wing = 7.78
- Freeman = 7.35
- Wheeler = 6.54
Overall MOTM awards:
- Wing = 6
- Scowen = 5
- Forino = 5
- Mawson = 5
- Stryjek = 4 (incl. 1 shared)
- Mehmeti = 3
- Wheeler = 2
With Mawson and Mehmeti featuring on all three leaderboards, the true player of the season race is really between Scowen (the presumptive favourite), Wing (who has made up some ground), and the dark horses of Stryjek, Forino and even Wheeler.
Big Chris continues to win MOTM for a high percentage of his starts (5 of 18) - I wish we could see a whole season of him!

Men who are somewhat blessed in years are precious - especially if they are Wycombe Fans
Wycombe Wanderers need to keep every supporter they have. This thread is about my own very recent experience with prostate cancer. I thought it was important to talk about it and I consulted with @micra and he agreed and has been giving me good advice. There are no gory details or nasty surprises, in the story.
The last five weeks weeks have been busy. A health review for me triggered a PSA test and a slightly raised level triggered a MIR scan and that triggered a biopsy and I have a diagnosis of prostate cancer - I have started treatment and the prognosis is good and I feel fine. It appears fairly likely that was caught before it spread.
I want to suggest that anyone reading this who has a prostate and has celebrated 50 years or so of having one, should consider asking for a PSA test. I think if it hadn't been for Bill Turnbull I would have been more reluctant to submit to the testing regime and that was a timely decision because it looks as though for me it was caught in time to treat completely. I talked for a while to the people at Addenbrookes Hospital Cambridge and they tell me that often, as for me, that particular cancer is often virtually symptom free until it begins to spread from the prostate. I was told that consideration was being given to offering tests to all men who are over 50 as standard: I don't think funds for NHS initiatives are readily available at the moment so please don't hold your breath.
@micra told me his story, a similar diagnosis with some spreading outside the prostate itself 17 years ago. In complete remission after treatment until 2021. His treatment was similar to what I believe mine will be. I am grateful, as I know we all are, that to quote @micra he is "still alive (if not exactly kicking) nearly 17 years after [he] was first diagnosed." I think he would want me to say that he was completely in remission until 2021.
I know it is sometimes difficult to access GPs surgeries in these times. @micra would say, and I would echo, if you fit the age profile use any opportunity you have to take a PSA test. If you think an opportunity won't present itself and you are concerned, please make an opportunity.
I have been thinking about participating in Jeff Sterling's walk from Wembley but I am not yet sure when I will have radiotherapy.
If anyone has a question, I am happy to answer a direct message. Sorry about the short term delay to the attendance thread postings.
Take care. Your club needs You.

Re: Burton protest
As someone who works in the NHS and has done for 15 years, I’d argue the problem is the provision of decent social care for those who need it and public health work to improve baseline wellbeing. All health, physical and mental is moderated to some extent by one’s environment. If we take a bio-psycho-social model of health or lack of it then improving societal conditions may improve population health. Take lack of NHS bed space as one example. This is often down to lack of community care space or adequate social care to allow timely and appropriate discharge. Or hospital admissions for disease linked to lifestyle. Don’t just fund education, work to ensure people have access to affordable healthy food, safe places to exercise and work life balances to maintain mental and physical well-being.
The NHS is far from perfect and has a habit of change that isn’t always well thought through when it comes to the interfaces with social care and health education. That is where the well funded work needs to be done in my view.
As for immigrants being a burden on the NHS, I ask you to consider again the policies of the current government in housing people in hotels where there is no access to means to work and limited meaningful activity in towns where they feel under threat from the residents. The impact on their mental and physical health is profound and, of course, then requires NHS resource.
Not to worry though, we can send them to Rwanda and quietly forget about them.
Or we could treat all people with dignity and respect and work to promote ethical foreign policies.
I appreciate anecdotes mean little but in my work in a migrant hotel I’ve been repeatedly asked by migrants if they can work or volunteer safely to have something to do. I’ve also heard over and over again that they’d like to return home one day to a country that won’t shoot or torture them for working with allied forces or practising a different religion or demonstrating against the government by holding up a placard and posting something on a website. Of course they might all lying and just wanting a council house and £3k a month to sit around watching sky sports whilst they plot to blow us up. Ripping out their own fingernails and breaking all their fingers was just a ruse to fool us woke folk.
