Six pointer on Thursday when Orient go to your place. You're unbeaten at home, we're unbeaten away and have scored nine in two games since Lee Steele came back into the side. Cue much cursing when you and Grimsby both scored late on today...

Haha! You'll be lucky!



Hang on, we're shit at home... I meant "we'll be lucky!"

As you were

 

[JTG]

4 wins from 5 now for the Gas. Good results at Mansfield and Rushden (both crap) and Wycombe (evidently on the slide now ) and we're right up there. Only three points off the play offs now

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Crap game of league 2 pinball this afternoon. Our two ball playing midfielders were both suspended so we decided to play a couple of centre backs in midfield and boot it over their heads. Great.

We were still better than Boston, who looked awful, but really that game was made to be 0-0.

Back at the top



4 goals against the 3rd placed team , hopefully we can put the loss and draw to Torfuckinquay behind us now

If I was a Rovers supporter I wouldn't be looking forward to tommorow

Yeah, Kevin Betsy took our left side apart and you never let us get our passing game going. Our keeper stood stock still for your first three, but that's par for the fucking course for him. Roll on Notts County tomorrow, and we'll have to do it without Steele.

We'll take care of Wycombe tomorrow, don't you worry

Did anyone go to the Wycombe-Orient game? I ask because of this email I received the other day- anyone know how it went? Fair play to Wycombe for supporting the cause.

Apologies for the large cut n paste.

Safe Standing Day

WWFC v Leyton Orient 29th December 05 KO 19:45

The ability to stand and watch a football match is, to many, a very
emotive issue with a growing number of football fans objecting to the
current national stadium regulations that prevent standing at the
country's top level matches. Wycombe Wanderers Supporters and Founders
Trusts, with the backing of the football club, have announced that the
forthcoming League Two fixture with Leyton Orient on 29 December 2005
will be designated 'Safe Standing Day'.

'Safe Standing Day' is an initiative designed with a specific purpose
- to fill Wycombe's Valley End Terrace as a statement to the
footballing authorities that supporters value the choice of whether to
stand or sit to watch the Football Club they have grown up with.
Standing at a football match is a basic right that should be available
to all football fans no matter at what level their team play. Wycombe
Wanderers are in an enviable position, compared to many clubs, of
having a traditional terrace at the 'home end' of the ground and they
want to keep it that way! The increasing number of all-seater stadia
now being built takes that right away as does the Football League
requirement for any football club to convert to an all-seater stadium
within three years of promotion to the Championship.

Wycombe Wanderers' home match against Leyton Orient will be covered
live on TV by Sky Sports. The Club and both its Trusts will use this
match to raise the issue of Safe Standing on a national level.

Since the Hillsborough tragedy and the subsequent Taylor Report, a
body of supporters have been campaigning for safe standing areas. The
aim of Stand Up Sit Down (http://www.standupsitdown.co.uk/) is to
restore supporters' choice as to whether they can stand or sit to
watch matches, by agreeing areas where safe standing will be accepted.

Campaign Co-ordinator for SUSD, Peter Caton, comments, 'Ask supporters
what they enjoy about watching football and many stress the importance
of atmosphere and the feeling that they are participating in an event
- not just spectating. They add that all-seat stadiums have greatly
reduced atmosphere and some of them have stopped attending matches as
a result.' Caton adds, 'Lord Justice Taylor conceded that standing
areas were not intrinsically unsafe. It is time to accept that the
current regulations are unworkable and that managed standing areas
should be introduced'.

In support of the aims of Stand Up Sit Down, Wycombe Wanderers and
both its Trusts are encouraging supporters to fill the club's Valley
End Terrace for this match. In recognition of the national importance
of this issue, the Club is also inviting fans of other football clubs
to come to this match and stand in the terrace. In order to meet
safety requirements, therefore, and in recognition of the terrace's
maximum safe capacity of 1,850, the terrace has been designated all-
ticket for this match only and the club encourages supporters that
want to stand to buy tickets in advance to prevent disappointment.
Tickets can be obtained either through the club's online ticket
facility at https://tickets.wwfc.com or via its ticket hotline on
01494 441118.

As a further safety consideration, supporters are reminded that only
fans taller than 1.2m are currently permitted to stand on the terrace.
It is our intention that Safe Standing Day rigorously abides by all
safety procedures in order to make its point more forcefully, and we
hope that you understand our reasons for this. Any existing Season
Ticket Holder who is affected will be relocated to any other area of
the ground.

The Trusts hope that you will choose to support this initiative by
joining Wycombe fans in standing safely on 29 December!

funniest thing I've read all year

There's a report on it here. There were 1400 people in the terrace last night (looked fuller than that to me), so they didn't quite fill it up. But as you say, top marks for supporting the cause.

 

[Termite Man]

1-2 win against rovers . I'm fairly pleased with that one

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Yet another blown lead. This time 2-0 against ten men.

Got to maintain mid table going nowhere I suppose. At least we have Yeo back and possibly another player or two joining in January.


</Clutching at straws>

 

[Red O]

Keith Alexander's been put on gardening leave: link. What's going on?

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

I'm not sure, there's lots of rumours going round. It seems very unlikely they'd have made up their minds in advance to give hime the push on the morning of a match so it looks like there's been an argument of some sort in the meeting they had.

There are also rumours about poisonous shithead bastard Dennis Wise getting the job, which I would not be happy about at all.

 

[JTG]

90th minute winner at Rushden Anne Diamonds brings us back to form and up to eighth place - only outside the play off positions on goal difference

Bring it on, I reckon we can do summat here

 

[Red O]

No word from the Wycombe camp yet? 4-5, fucking hell...

Link doesn't work bruv.

 

[Termite Man]

No word from the Wycombe camp yet? 4-5, fucking hell...

not had time to comment . I looked on teletext at about 4.15 and it was 1-3 , I was fucking shocked when I saw the final scoreline . At least Grimsby lost as well ( I think ) so we should still be top ( haven't checked the table yet )

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Well, now Keith is back, the assistant manager is gone, it looks like the chairman is staying after it was on Sky Sports that he was leaving.

I'm still totally baffled.

 

[Termite Man]

I'm still totally baffled.

Back to normality then


Wycombe have actually sold Tyson now for £675,000 to Forest so hopefully we'll have some money for some squad strenthening

 

[JTG]

We're after Andy Johnson, ex Norwich, Forest and now West Brom midfielder. Bristolian, Gashead when he was a kid.

if we can get him

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Yet another lead blown in injury time. I can't believe how often this has happened this season.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

A 4-1 win.

Even we couldn't manage to blow that one.

 

[Termite Man]

Good results for Wycombe overshadowed by the news that Mark Philo died in a car crash earlier today ( before the game ) . He was quite a promising young player as well and I'm sure he'll be missed at Wycombe

RIP Mark

 

[JTG]

1-1, then with two minutes to go, Cheltenham scored the winner















Except it wasn't cos we went straight down the other end to equalise and then scored another in the third minute of injury time

Wish I'd been there, apparently the scenes amongst the 1700 travelling fans (and the rest scattered around the home terraces) were just a little bit mental...

John Anderson hadn't played in months and then he nets in the 93rd minute!

One point off the play offs, plenty of home games to come, we can do this.

 

[Termite Man]

I hope Rovers make the playoffs at least , it would be great if they go up and then City fuck up and get relegated
