Definitely. I'm taking my eldest daughter and my son. I'd of took them regardless of price, however a couple of kids who play football with my daughter are coming too and an extra adult. Might even have more attending come matchday and I think the short distance (about an hour) and the price plays a big part in this.
As for the game I'm looking forward to seeing what team we put out and how we look. Feels like Dodds has been here for ages without playing a match. I feel it's gone from Mike Who to wow we've got a great fella who's highly respected in football etc... but ultimately it comes down to results and let's hope we get one on Saturday and I believe we can.
Yeah absolutely, I'd have been there regardless but as it is only a tenner I've convinced my mum, aunt, and two cousins to come along as well (none of whom are really Wycombe fans mind, but they'll get behind the boys). Should be a superb turnout to welcome Doddsy to the club!
Never gets old. Not just Leicester v Wycombe in the FA Cup 6th Round. This was high-flying Premier League Leicester v an absolutely decimated third tier Wycombe, replete with a bloke they’d found on the horse-drawn internet.
Definitely. The bit people might not remember is Leicester had beaten Liverpool at home quite comfortably the Saturday before, and were as high as 6th in the league?
Whilst the game v Leicester was epic, I was there at Selhurst Park for the 5th round game against Wimbledon. And what that game was. It had everything. Taylor saving a penalty, down to ten men for almost an hour, extra time and scoring in the dying seconds to force the game to penalties. And the ecstasy changing to panic trying to get the final train back to Wycombe from Marylebone. 2001 was one hell of a season. I love this tournament.
The win at Leicester was the bigger result i suppose, but if i was only allowed to watch one game over and over again for the rest of my life, it'd be the Wimbledon replay.
Yep, it was the precursor to nine defeats in their final 10 games, and was arguably the beginning of the end of Peter Taylor’s reign, which had started so well. Strange swings and roundabouts that he’d later assume the Wycombe hot seat!
No way I could go through that again! The most extraordinary game I've ever seen, but also complete torture. Everything stacked against us, there seemed no way we could win at times and yet...
I don’t know what it is, but I feel we’re going to get that new ‘manager’ bounce and some fired up Chairboys tomorrow and we’re going to give PNE a very good game. I think we’ll be scoring plenty of goals tomorrow.
I'm hoping we go strong. Bradley and Low at the back, hopefully Harvie back. Scowen and Humphries in midfield, Kone up front and I think we really have a chance. Too many debuts and I feel it could be very tough going against a strong Preston side.
I know Doddsy said he wouldn't start making radical changes off the bat, but tomorrow has got to be one for a few debuts. Ideal for a new boss to see what he's got at his disposal without derailing the season's goal. I'm sure PNE will rotate pretty heavily too - I just hope they've fed their number 28.
He's in full training kit at around the 2:30 mark messing around with the sprinkler but can't see him in the actual training bits. No idea if he's fit though!
No, and I see what you're doing here, but I wasn't aware that speculating some of our plethora of new signings might make their debuts was such a radical view.

Looks like you might be able to get a free trial of this and watch through American ESPN+ https://www.hulu.com/start/affiliate-livetv?cmp=8870&utm_campaign=brand&utm_source=Rakuten&utm_medium=Affiliate&ranMID=42392&ranEAID=kXQk6*ivFEQ&ranSiteID=kXQk6.ivFEQ-OszCABqQ_N59DeehZab9eg&siteID=kXQk6.ivFEQ-OszCABqQ_N59DeehZab9eg
Fair play to PNE for pricing really decently 🙌👏
So this is why Hulu was down this afternoon!

And fair play to Wycombe too … given it’s FA Cup BOTH clubs agree the prices.

Oh, I thought that was a new thing. Never mind - still such an incredible story.

A great signing. He certainly BAMBOOZLED the Leicester defence.HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Definitely worth making sure you cancel before the end of your 3-day trial or you'll be stung to the tune of $83
Looking at the Inside Training video, Harvie appears to be a full participant in training (as do Jasper, Joe Low, and Kieran Sadlier).
Couldn’t see Kone, did anyone?
The classic back on the grass
we really need him for the game tomorrow so that's a concern

He was in the footage, wearing a kind of headscarf type thing...
Don’t you need a US credit card linked to a US residence for this? I can’t find a way to do this.
Ah, I thought that might be an issue
At this rate i'll be doing a Facebook live from my living room on Saturday morning!
are you travelling up?
No, and I see what you're doing here, but I wasn't aware that speculating some of our plethora of new signings might make their debuts was such a radical view.
