If they hadn’t have gone up this year I genuinely believe they would have had a relegation battle in League 1 this season. Amazing how bang average their squad is, even for league 1.

Already looks like they are in for a long hard season.

Just watched the half time with that bloke on it moaning about a foul, he should look at himself when he plays he fouls every time they kick it up in the air for him. The only benefit him being on the tv is that I don’t need to watch him waddle around the field.
They are going to get some real thrashings this year and I wouldn’t be surprised to see them go down again next year.

Ainsworth looked like a beaten man when he came out after half time. He has been worked out already

To be fair I don't think they expected anything else and being in the Championship this season will keep their finances in order for longer than it may have otherwise. Helps our survival prospects no end though

I agree but if Oxford couldn’t beat them they don’t deserve it either. Truth is the gap is too wide anyway

It's a 44/46 game season, I completely understand why the others were annoyed with the decision.

I think Rotherham may have stayed in it, although I do think Fleetwood were the team to watch. Would they do any better than Wycombe are now?
Clubs that size just don't have the budgets required, nor the potential growth in the clubs to survive. Wycombe fans will enjoy this season because if my friend is anything to go by, this is their Premiership. Fans my age (26), literally used to watch Wycombe when they were in the Isthmian League.
Undoubtedly, Wycombe deserved to go up. They beat the two in-form team (minus ourselves) in the league to go up. They shouldn't have made the playoffs as the unweighted PPG wasn't the fairest outcome, the EFL probably chose unweighted PPG to spite Peterborough. As for Rotherham, they were pretty much in the top 2 the whole season, so I don't think anyone can be too aggrieved at that.

Just a shame for them they can't go to any of the grounds. We're about the only club in the world glad that nobody can go!

My mate is actually gutted, someone who does around 40 games a season in the league. As for us, it's our equaliser. Personally, the good thing about the rugby season being delayed is being able to watch all the games.
I did really want to do our Yorkshire away days, especially Barnsley. I have a uni mate who supports them and my uncle lives up there (and another in Huddersfield) - we planned to do all the Yorkshire away days when we can.

Makes me sad to think of what might have been in an alternate universe where we won the title on the pitch, got a Ricoh return and bumper crowds in the Championship.

We can have our fingers crossed around June/July 2021 where we await the deadline to tell the EFL where we’ll be playing next season.
Only to be let down, again.

The owner of Fleetwood has a few quid from memory he spent £7 million on the training ground

True, but this is the same club also has less than 300 away fans at most games.
They’re a well suited League 1 outfit, Championship is just that one step too far.
It does look bleak for Wycombe.... But given that we are not even 1/15th into the season we should probably hold our tongues before writing others off.
We could just as likely end up adrift in the bottom three, as be in a playoff battle (admittedly both would be unlikely).

The record for the lowest points total is 23 I believe, does anybody think Wycombe will beat that?

I think Wycombe got promoted into football league in early 90's. Well run club.

They did, Martin O'Neil was their manager back then. They'd not long been in the league when we beat them over two legs in the league Cup in 93

Once they have that big lump back the press will be saying how unlucky they are and how good it is to see him in the higher leagues, when in reality he brings nothing to the game a bit like his media work.
