On This Day

I want to like this but I can’t. It’s just another reminder of what we had and what we threw away.

I predicted the correct score for that one, which propelled me to the top of the prediction league.

How times have changed.

This was the day after Dan Rice sacked Scott Mitchell, can’t help wondering if those players all went out there and delivered an absolute masterclass of attacking football just to show Dan Rice what a dribbling imbecile he is. But then imagine how thick you’d have to be to watch that and think “I should get rid of all these players too, and replace them with some really expensive turds.”, let alone “I should get rid of this manager as well, and replace him with a sentient potato that I can puppet.”

There’s a lot of frauds, incompetents, thickos and dickheads in football, but some how Dan Rice manages to be all of those things, and the thickest, incompetent, dickheaded fraud of the lot.

Travelling back from that game on the supporters coach I remember thinking the apprentice has taken over from the sorcerer and we were entering into a very exciting new era. I reckon we were 75% to go up automatic failing that 100% to win the playoffs.
Oh dear, fast forward two months and I just felt depressed
Yes good people left at that time but to me that Phil C decided to jump ship at the end of the season
When a supporter decides he wants to work for a different club that says it all

First game after Harvie got injured I assume, with Hartridge as a stand in left back.

Our team today is arguably better than the team that played a year ago!

This may have been another injury, but his season ending injury came at Birmingham in March. We certainly missed him.

Definitely a weird coincidence that we play the same team at the same venue on the same date two years running

Wasn’t Franco Ravizolli great. Wasn’t that just about the best Wycombe lineup this century. Woe is me for we have been horribly undone.

The very last straw would be the constructive dismissal of Michael Duff as the result of a refusal to allow him the right of veto over player comings and goings over the next few weeks.
