    You wouldn't think Akinfenwa had only been on for half an hour. Looks like he's been running for about 6 days.
    Hopefully he'll stay @ Wycombe, be great to see how he does in the Championship as he's never played about League One before
    Hope he does.

    If he does I think he will be used as an impact sub, if they are one goal behind with 10 minutes to go bring him on and lump balls down to him, not the sort of player Championship defenders will be used to playing against and they won't look forward to it
    Akinfenwa is bloody brilliant with his interview
    Damn switched it off to watch Man Utd

    Need to try and find it, he's been brilliant

    Akinfenwa: "Am sorry but where are we going?",
    Interviewer (Just casually): "To the Championship"
    Akinfenwa: "Am sorry I didnt quite hear that at the back, where are we going?"

    You can see why he's so well known, very charismatic... Reminds me a bit of Lyle tbh

    How the HELL have Wycombe kept Gareth Ainsworth

    He's been there eight years now, for years he's shown his pedigree at that club

    Why the hell have QPR of all teams ignored him

    Feel a bit sad for Parker winners league 1 medal for us last year and was released, winner again this year for Wycombe and will no doubt get released again.

    Huge shame for the Wycombe fans who haven't been able to see that in person today really, although considering it was the same circumstances that meant they made the play-offs on PPG that has kept them out of the Wembley maybe they won't feel too hard done by

    Bit like Oliver Norwood, won promotion to the Premier League with Fulham, got sold to Reading, got promoted again and got sold to Sheffield United who have kept him

    Hopefully the same will thing will happen for Josh this time round

    Really surprising that he only played three more League games for Wycombe than what he did for Charlton

    Hope we stay up, we've got a 100% record against them in the league.

    Pardon my erm... question... but the woman presenting... where on earth did Sky find her?

    I know we're bound by Diversity and Inclusion now but come on...

    What's wrong @JohnBoyUK? She's not slim and blonde?

    The Beast - what a man !

    You can feel his leadership, his extraordinary energy and all that he brings to the club. His kids go to a local school that my son deals with and the teachers there (who are not football fans) absolutely love him - what a humanoid.

    Nine players at the start of pre-season and Gareth Ainsworth leads them to promotion. That is one hell of an achievement amongst the big dogs of Sunderland, Pompey and Ipswich. Mutual respect for Robbo in his moment of triumph and very mindful of the fate of other lower league clubs in the light of Covid-19.

    Not a technically beautiful game but so much at stake and unalloyed joy at the end. Very uplifting and a great contrast to the sterility of so many Premier League games

    Pompey and Sunderland will be fighting over him, in case they're in next year's playoff final!

    Nothing wrong, was just surprised.  Wondered if she was an ex player or something.  A very un-Sky appointnent it must be said.

    She knows her stuff and has been presenting sports and football on radio for years. I'm pleased she's made it on to the telly. Refreshing change for a female Sky presenter not to be wearing a low cut top as though she is on her way to the nightclub. 

    I'll get off my high horse now. ;-)

    Hope he gets a good few games and even a couple of goals in the champ next year - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geFU0y6f-y0
  • Go the say Well done to the Chairboys - lived there for 11 years and all my in laws are Wycombe fans. BUT Bowyer better get them going for these last few games - being in L1 and below Wycombe will be a bit tough to take.

    I really like Joe Jacobson, if he was a shade younger I'd love for us to pick him up
  • Wycombe must be nailed on to finish bottom of the Championship next season.............unless we stay up and are still under a transfer embargo.

    Well done Wycombe if we can stay up it’s another weak side in the league


  • In fairness to Wycombe a lot of other sides would've done the same in their position and even if they had voted to play on it would've made no difference as i think there were about 19-20 sides who voted not to play.
  • I think Wycombe are nailed on for relegation next season.

    I think she's a really good presenter and 
    and certainly better informed than many I've seen.

    Wycombe  were bottom 3 or 4 of League One budgets and got promoted, there’s manager of the year right there , Ainsworth, rocking a bit of a pornstar look
