Today's fun Wycombe trivia
Sam Vokes is exactly 11 years older than Jack Young.
Luke Leahy is exactly 11 years older than Christie Ward.
Sadly, Matt Bloomfield and Jaiden Bartolo are 22 years and 2 days apart. That pesky 48 hour period stopped that being the mic drop stat to crown the other two.
One more: Jason McCarthy and Nick Freeman are exactly the same age.
Okay, "fun" is stretching it.
Any other Wycombe trivia out there?

Of the 60 league goals that we scored last season, 73.3% of them were scored by players wearing even-numbered shirts, and only 26.7% by payers wearing odd numbers.
I really should get out more.
Just love those statistical facts. Preferable to the ones that are worse than damned lies.
Hope the two youngsters (Young and Ward) are able to make more of an impact next season. Wouldn’t be difficult in Young’s case !
Can’t offer any additional trivia I’m afraid.
GMac has not posted any tweets about ADT for 20 days. The longest break since he started.
that's alarming
The owner of Loakes Park prior to Frank Adams was Lord Carrington, the last member of the House of Lords to hold one of the ‘Great Offices of State’ until David Cameron was appointed Foreign Secretary last year.
When researching the official history, I wrote to Lord Carrington, asking what he remembered about the sale of Loakes Park to Frank Adams. I received a very courteous reply, but he couldn't really remember anything about it. I'm not surprised as, in 1944 when negotiations with Frank Adams were taking place, he was a tank commander in Europe, and later awarded the Military Cross. Peter Carrington was a Life Vice-president of the club.
Mentioned them in a tweet yesterday, but you have to click 'show more' to see it
Didn’t Wycombe Wanderers used to have the most different letters in its name out of the 92 clubs. Not sure if we still do.
Wolverhampton Wanderers would have us beaten, I think? I make it 14-12 in their favour.
We were the only English football league side whose name contained the letters a, b, c, d and e for a while until Cambridge Utd got promoted back into it
Bollocks - maybe it was ‘’most in the football league’ when wolves were in the premier league 😂
It delights me that an anagram of Fred Onyedinma is 'Refined dynamo'. Perfect for him during his time with us!
