The Wycombe Wanderers Chronicle
Player ratings20 Aug 2029
Solly March, 35, rolls back the years — 8.29
There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.29 at 35, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Wycombe Wanderers say no — this time
The offer from Plymouth Argyle for Edwin Ody was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Chrysolite Ogbu: that is not what I was promised
“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Wycombe Wanderers have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.
Transfer targets20 Aug 2029
An offer of $450.0K for Rodrigo Soria
Wycombe Wanderers have gone to Milton Keynes Dons with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Newport County tell Wycombe Wanderers: Lewis Jamieson is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Too dear: Wycombe Wanderers walk away from Gabriel Salguero
$100.0K was the most the club would pay and Port Vale were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.
Boardroom20 Aug 2029
7 academy players handed senior numbers at Wycombe Wanderers
The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

A falling-out at Wycombe Wanderers
Fin Back and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
The terraces20 Aug 2029
Wycombe Wanderers supporters have found a favourite in Michael Laffey
There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Michael Laffey has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.
