7th... Outside Play-off places by 4 points.... Had first win tonight under new manager, Matt Bloomfield - Chairboys 2 v 0 Fleetwood.
I'd not be unhappy with a point....
Over the moon with 3...

Not expecting anymore snow until after KO tomorrow, around 4pm, up to 90% sleet/snow but.....
It's going to be down to -5° tonight... that's the worry🤔

As you say bennyboy the biggest problem will be the temperature tonight ,I assume the covers have been on most of the week ,just depends whether all parts are protected ,it was just a part of the pitch that remained frozen the over week when the game got called off.

I think to be fair to Wycombe it needs an early pitch inspection, probably 9-10am ish. By then the -5° turn into around 2°, hopefully it's not solid then. We've been here before though, I'm sure with our resources we are doing everything we can to get the game playable.👍 We need tomorrow's game and Tuesday game to be on, we're only fighting the wet possibly slushy stuff for Tuesday, temps look to be higher.👍 |

It takes hours to de frost and coming up from -7 will take a while. We’ve waited around on Sunday mornings for our pitch to thaw a bit and it’s normally not till the afternoon when it’s very playable. By that time everyone has popped off for their Sunday lunch 😁 |

Whilst Wycombe team will have probably travelled up today, leaving an inspection that late, when Wycombe fans will probably be at, or close to, the stadium, would be totally impractical. Peterborough v Charlton was called off less than two hours before kick off recently and caused uproar and resulted in Peterborough offering refunds/free entry to visiting fans for the rearranged game. Forecast is for a maximum of 3 degrees by kick off. |

Taking my eye off the footballing world a little, only just realised they have a new manager at QPR.🤪 Wonder if he'll do better than Jimmy, not had the best of starts though.🤔 More positive today about this match, hope the covers have done there job. Here in South Derbyshire it ain't too bad, the frost has gone, still blooming cold.🥶 |

Maybe they think its only news if off... But they clearly know with the weather... there're going to be doubts... Not only away fans that travel some distance to the Pirelli and need to set off early... |

As I am away at the moment with erratic internet, can anyone fill me in about Oshinawa’s sending off…. Hope I’ve got the spelling right!

Really hope we can hold onto this, it'd be one of our wins of the season, I just hope Oshilajas silly tackle doesn't cost us.

Dino really has worked miracles.
I was reminded on the radio this morning that we lost 7 of the first 8 games. That now feels a LONG time ago.
Long way to go, though. Great win today. I'm away and didn't see it - sounds like a nail biter.

HUGE HUGE HUGE win!
For about the eight time this season I'm left thinking "That's the worst referee I've seen in my life".
Oh for the days of Trevor Kettle....

Referee poor, and the lino on the popside was utter garbage
Can't believe the Wycombe players were unhappy at the ref at the end?
Joe Powell immense today, man of the match without doubt.
Gassan didn't look fit, thought Taylor and Walker were terrific.
Great win, presume Oshilaja will be a 3 match ban? Step back in Tom Helm, more of the same Tuesday please, COYB
