Went over to their forum to see what the BANTZ were like and was qute surprised to see that they seem more interested in the Cass Review than today's game. They seem to think the season is over.
The reverse fixture was a horrible scrappy game, we tend to not be great against teams that stick numbers behind the ball (no surprise, given our general attacking limitations) and that is them in a nutshell.
Perhaps they’re a bit more attacking at home, and whilst neither team looks likely to go down, they need the points more than we do, so maybe that could encourage them to attack a bit more.
Would like to see Vokes start this one, to give their defence something to think about and win the aerial balls - maybe Wheeler too so we have a couple of target options?
Having experienced what just a normal run of the mill tabby can do the split second it gets bored of having its belly rubbed... lion sized swan every day of the week !
I've stolen the above from an old Goon Show and now seems the only time I'll ever use it.
The Goon Show, flymofrank, was the 1950's equivalent of The Mighty Boosh. The Boosh met in Wycombe, which somehow brings this terrible post back on topic.
The team sheet graphic on Twitter has Leahy as captain even though Scowen is playing. A mistake? Or has something significant happened this week? I know it's probably 2+2=5 but that happening seconds after they dispatch Stryjek to Crewe...
If it can still fly you have no chance. It would have the high ground and there's no way you can outrun it. Even if it can't break your arm in one attack the aerial bombardments alone would ware you down
Or, he has the chance of a first-team game rather than warming the bench, giving him a better chance to earn a contract, a top performance could give him a way back into our first team and a bit of extra match fitness.

The Shrewsbury badge is a case in point for the Cass review - this is what happens when lions identify as puppies.
Would you rather fight a lion-sized Swan or three Swan-sized lions?
One lion-sized swan. They're overrated. That thing you're told as a kid about how they can break your arm? A myth.
First rule of combat - air superiority always wins. Lions blowing party whistles any day for me.

Shrewsbury should never have got rid of their old badge, a lion coming home to find he's been burgled.

If it was the size of a lion it could.
I'd still back myself to outrun it
It's a sin to tell a lion.

I went to school with someone who was in an episode of the Mighty Boosh. Minor claim to fame.
You don't need to outrun the lion, just to outrun @Chris
Stryjek to Crewe on an emergency loan confirmed.
I do think he suffered from our poor, constantly changing defence this season.
It’ll be sad if this is how it ends for him.
I hope they get to the playoff final and he gets the game at Wembley his performance in the Bristol Motors semi final deserved.

I’d imagine Leahy has been given the captaincy ceremoniously on the day of his 50th Wycombe appearance as he returns to his former club.
Or more likely a classy move by the club celebrating the career of a player thought highly of by both sets of fans!
Seems likely something has gone on behind the scenes with Max. A shame.
Given his temperament on the pitch, I’d be surprised if something hadn’t happened behind the scenes this season.
It was very odd that the club didn’t appeal the 3 match ban for serious foul play, should have been 1 match for denying a goalscoring opportunity.
Wonder if there was a fall out as a result.
It's also Leahy's 501st professional game. Making him captain for the day was a no brainer.
Crewe were starting a 19 year old in goal until he suffered a collapsed lung, following a collision, in a match early February.
Shame to see Max fall from favour so quickly but it happens in football all the time. Wish him well for today and hope he keeps a clean sheet.
Max starts in goal, wearing no. 42, for Crewe v Grimsby today. Surely the end of his tenure with us?

Not if I hide in a cave
Max v Curtis.

Theres bears in Caves.
And little food. Swans are devious and patient.
