General Very Tinpot Wycombe

[Sarge]

Sunderland will be in the West End of Wembley and have been allocated 37,480 tickets which will go on sale at one ticket per person.

Wycombe Wanderers have an initial allocation of 19,205 tickets and are allowing six tickets per person. This could be increased to 28,000 if the sell out....

Sunderland allocated the 'lucky' Green Man pub then?

Chairman's rallying cry... https://www.wwfc.com/news/2022/may/10/rob-wembley/

Properly odd. Reads as though it was written in a foreign language and been put through google translate a few times.
They really are not doing themselves any favours...

"We will again be the underdogs to those who “know football”. The supporters of the team that is a Netflix show will try to intimidate us with their superior number off fans."
"I am hearing from groups throughout the UK looking to get their maximum allotment."
"We will also be utilizing our secret weapon: the WorldWide Wycombe Wanderers Phenomenon."

Amended for him

I can only echo sproates33 - "If anything sums them tinpot gimps up this is it.". I've never wanted the mackems to win anything ever but I'm beginning to waver.

Still struggling to give a toss either way.

 

[Grumpy Git]

Wycombe have f.a. support, money and football skill. If they lose in the final, out will go any decent talent, probably their manager and they’ll start heading south.

Come on the Mackems.

 

[Scotchegg]

The Wycombe Chairman was a horrible, classless t**t when they won the playoffs and I hope for nothing more than Sunderland humiliating them this time round with Charlie giving him this!!!

What the…..

 

[Londox]

What the…..

@Northstandboy if the Reading thread is Tinpot Reading, Wycombe are very lucky to get away with having the thread title as just "Wycombe" !

 

[uptheus]

What the…..

I think that’s normally given as a foul. The goalkeeper had the ball in his hands and the player has bumped into him, thus knocking the ball out of his hands.

If that happened to us we’d be livid!

 

[Older Shotts]

What the…..

I see the caption at the bottom - Seddon sent off.

 

[Grumpy Git]

The goalie was wasting time in the 91st minute, he hardly gets touched but went down like he’d been tackled by Adebayo Akinfenwa. His cheating cost them a point.

He doesn’t knock the ball out of his hands, the keeper drops it dramatically.
Yes it would normally be a foul but I guess even refs get fed up with Wycombe’s time wasting.

Not sure they're worth having a distinctive title. They're just Wycombe.

 

[holdsteady]

As a goalie why drop the ball? What do you gain out of that if he gives a free kick tom you anyway? Huge risk for no reward.

 

[SteMerritt]

Just goes to prove that they think of us as such 'local rivals' that they are even contriving ways to give our promotion rivals extra points in a bid to keep us down.

[nick68]

Obviously it's clearly a foul but at last there's justice for Wycombe's persistent time wasting.

 

[Londox]

I'm no fan of Wycombe, but that is an obvious foul. The standard of refereeing in this league is SHOCKING this season.

Having seen the better angle I still think it’s a foul.

We were time wasting last night towards the end! And Brannagan took an age to get to the corner flag to take the corners

 

[holdsteady]

Not actually enough contact to make anyone fall over so if he doesn’t throw himself to the ground then Barnsley don’t score. Plus why drop the ball?

Oh come one, let's not compare us with Wycombe they take it to another level

Yeah, it's funny because it's Wycombe, but plenty of referees would have sent the Barnsley lad off.

 

[SamLongSlidingTackle]

From how I see it, I think the goalie used his right arm to brace against the player (with ball in left hand), then used left arm to brace the fall and the ball got lost in translation between those moments. Keepers make those falls with the ball still held so you could say he was clumsy (while setting aside the initial push)

 

[Steve Gilbert]

Would they?! Not sure how in anyway that is even close to being a red card. A foul yes, possibly a yellow card but no way is it a red.

It's not a red card, not for a second.

Some would give it though, if he's raised his hands, he's given the ref a decision to make.

We've seen it happen.

 

[EastStandKieran]

Anyway I don't care if it's a foul or red or yellow card offence the fact is it happened to Wycombe and they lost so I think it's brilliant especially after how they behaved during the game at Wembley

There’s so little contact there that you don’t need to brace against anything, that wouldn’t knock my 94 year old grandad over, he could just stay standing up and get on with the game and High Wycombe get a point, he has thrown himself to the ground to waste (even more time).

Goalies get so much protection yet waste so much time, this one just gets his comeuppance for it.

but Darren Drysdale was the referee.

 

[SteMerritt]

Minimal contact, keeper throws himself down looking to win a free-kick and waste more time whilst taking it. Whilst falling dramatically he spills the ball and concedes.

Tough. Serves them right.
