This will be Garde's chance to get a badly needed win under his belt.

I saw them play at Luton on Boxing day, and whilst they won, we may as well pack it all in if we lose to these.

I bet they're looking forward to the game a lot more than we are.

Everyone I've spoken to tells me it will take ages to get to and from the ground. How far is it from civilisation? pubs?

Its a couple of miles from the town centre. I'm planning to park there and walk to the ground.

I think that they do lay on buses from HW town centre

However, if its pissing down, I'll try to park at/near the ground and accept getting stuck on the way out


Their ground is at the end of an industrial estate. Parking is very limited. Maybe park at the Holiday Inn or Next at J4, and get a taxi down. There's a Hobgoblin pub and also The Bell (great London Pride), if you do go in to HW. Beware, there are some terrible pubs there and parking is pricey.

I just cant see a win.
The TV execs must be wanking themselves silly over the prospect of seeing us dumped out on national TV - albeit on  BTSports.

Worth mentioning, for those without BT Sport, you can watch it on Bet365 if you have a funded account.

Will us losing be a shock?

I'm going, cant say I'm looking forward to the match much.

I honestly don't think it would, I'd be more shocked if we won. We've got no confidence and don't look capable of beating anyone. Wycombe must really fancy their chances.

No shock at all although we have won the other games we have played against non PL opponents this season.

I have been offered tickets from 2 sources, one local and one from Wycombe but just can't be arsed.
