Denzel Zanzibar 6,972 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 When? Tomorrow Where? Their ground. Adams Park or something What time, guv'nor? 3pm, or if you're militarily inclined, 15:00 hours. Team lineup? Score prediction? Anyone been to their ground? How crap is their badge, seriously? I'd usually make more of an effort but come on, it's Wycombe Wanderers. (Bonus footage found of a young Marcus Bettinelli whenever a football was kicked in his general direction.) 3 Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,497 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 hahaha the picture did make me LOL. i am worried about this game. I know they struggling but they seem to lose games by close margins. Plus they ground especially this time of year is one that we wont be used to. They obviously will. Betti dijk fry paddy bola morsy sav watmore tav johnson britt i will go for a 2-2. Really want the win though. Link to post Share on other sites
DurhamRed 2,047 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 It's going to be tougher than people expect this as looking at their fixtures they have only conceded more than 2 goals too Blackburn season start. In most other games they only lost by the 1 goal. So it's very important we keep a clean sheet really if we want anything out this game and be patient. 1-0 win hopefully 1 Link to post Share on other sites
AnglianRed 6,320 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 The Wednesday game was a sobering reminder that we can still switch off and be crap. Hopefully it will also serve as a wake-up call to the team. If we start the way we played the last 20 minutes or so of the last game, we should roll Wycombe over...but as we all know it depends which Boro turns up in the first half. Still cautiously optimistic this should be a 3-pointer for us, but will not be surprised by any result. Team lineup? Not sure NW can field a much stronger lineup than he did at Sheff Wed - though I'd start Tav over Wing and Stojanovic over Bettinelli. Just need to have more of an attacking mentality. We are actually better defensively on the front foot. Its when we sit back and invite pressure that we struggle. Our midfield needs to get a grip early on. Score prediction? I think as DurhamRed said, this will be tougher than we think and I'll be happy to come away with a 0-1 scoreline. Anyone been to their ground? Nope, but I've seen some photos and Adams Park, though small, looks tidy. How crap is their badge, seriously? Another one that looks like a pub sign, with the swan and crown. Much like Boro's connection with "Erimus", its due to the town's coat of arms: http://www.mayorofwycombe.com/?page_id=476 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,942 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 This is probably going to be the most grim match entertainment wise all season. Two absolute scrapper teams fighting for second balls as their MO. We still have far more quality, they're essentially a league 1 side, so should scrape by. Link to post Share on other sites
Dynamo Kev 1,558 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 How crap is their badge, seriously? its a decent badge, its relevant to the town as all badges should be. its rather insulting to diss it, you naughty boy. Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernSmoggie 4,242 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Think this will be a tough game for us. Won't be parting with another tenner, that's for sure. Link to post Share on other sites
sanddancer 1,967 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) Amazing how a lose knocks confidence. If our players can’t win this one they should beg remorse and beg forgiveness, on a knee, no both knees and NW should walk home. Wycombe are bottom of the league I expect, no demand a win and with dominance. Link to post Share on other sites

They are the bottom club for good reason and if I was still playing football I would relish the opportunity to improve my goal tally. If we can’t go to this game expecting and getting the win then all the players including NW should go. Statements like this only go to show the lack of belief in the club.

marvin 290 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I don’t know much about Wycombe Wanderers other than Martin O’Neil managed there as an up and coming manager in the 90’s before he worked wonders with Leicester and made a real name for himself. He was the manger that beat us in the cup final replay at Hillsborough in 97. Also in the 90’s, Wycombe had a player called Steve Guppy (he was lightning fast on an old computer game I had) who followed O’Niell to Leicester, then to Celtic and even played for England once. After Wycombe beating Cardiff on Tuesday and our defeat to Sheffield Wednesday, I’d say this one is tougher to call than I’d hoped it would be. However, they’re still bottom of the league and I can’t imagine Warnock will accept anything less than a bounce back with a win. Bettinelli won’t be dropped but Tav might start which will probably give us a bigger attacking threat. I think we’ll win very convincingly. Link to post Share on other sites

Old Codger 3,064 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 This will not be an easy game, it should be winnable but it is certainly not a walkover.. most of their defeats have been by a single goal and they keep going right to the end. They have a good spirit to the team and will do their best to make it difficult, so it very likely won't be flowing football. We should be good enough to get three points, but we will definitely have to work for them. Link to post Share on other sites
TheJew 2,938 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Another easy prediction is this. Let us get down to some possible facts. We need to lose this to justify Gibbo not bringing in any real quality this month. I mean, there's no point if we are just sat in midtable obscurity, right? Wycombe get a 2 nil win here. We get a realisation that promotion was never on the cards and everyone gets to look forward to a wonderful 2021 that replicates a lot of 2020. ... you're welcome. Link to post Share on other sites
