Great Feedback from Gary

Gary Waddock has thanked supporters at the Wycombe Wanderers Trust AGM on Wednesday night for their support of him and his team ahead of the final three months of the season.

The Blues boss was joined by keeper Nikki Bull and ex-player Keith Ryan for a Q&A session after the formalities of the meeting at Adams Park, with topics such as playing budgets, youth development and the club’s current on-field problems being discussed in the forum as reported below.

While concerns were raised about the lowly league position in which the club find themselves, Waddock was heartened by a large number of positive and encouraging comments made towards him and his side.

“I’d like to thank the Trust and their members for inviting me to the event and I enjoyed the opportunity to speak to the fans and hear their views on the situation we find ourselves in,” he said.

“We are doing everything we can to improve things and I appreciated their patience and understanding through this difficult time.

“I’m as frustrated as anyone that we haven’t been winning as many games as we would like, but we need the fans to stay on our side and work with us, and it was great to have so many positive voices in the room last night.”

REMINDER: Match Day Parking Restriction

The Club has asked us to notify members and supporters that the area outside Broadway Tyres depot in Hillbottom Road is no longer available for match day parking.

This is on the left as you approach Adams Park and is the area that until a season or two ago, used to be managed by the Independent Supporters Association as a fund raising car park for Youth Development within the Club.

WWFC has been told that any cars parked there now might get clamped. So please take care and only park in designated areas.

‘Quid a Kid’ proved successful

Although the result on the night didn’t go the way we had planned it, there was more than one successful outcome of the match with Huddersfield last Friday night.

Back in November when it was announced that this home match would be brought forward to the Friday night , the WW Trust suggested to the Club that this be designated a ‘Quid a Kid’ game.

We felt that this might encourage a good turnout of youngsters (and their parents) to experience a night game when most children would not have school to go to the next morning. Also coming so soon after the Christmas holiday period, we recognised that, for many, money might be particularly tight and this would be a much appreciated offer, hoping to boost the crowd for a televised game against one of the league’s top sides.

The Club has advised us that over 250 ‘Quid a Kid’ tickets were sold and that this brought in more youngsters than we would normally see for an evening match. This deal would also have brought in extra parents and whilst the overall gate figure was down on some previous games, this may have been due to the fact that the game was televised live on Sky Sports.

Apart from our opponents, the other party delighted with the evening were Sky Sports for whom the match was seen as a great example of football from a lower league with lots of goals and a great story for their Sports News channel to follow up on.
