    I think Ainsworth speaks well here and its nice to see some of our fans on Twitter acknowledging him.

    Despite the blatant push on our player in front of him, he did really well to pass it back to Patterson:emoticon-0148-yes:

    He looks like something out of Soccer Aid - a bloke who can play, but doesn't belong on a football pitch with professionals

    Still gets my blood boiling when I think of that "assault" on Watmore down there. Just back from a serious injury, which I've no doubt whatsoever they knew about, just bagged the equaliser then their midfielder, under instructions from the management staff Ill guarantee, basically goes in to crock him again. Which they did, disgusting behaviour from a tin pot no mark club. That punch on Onein would've been premeditated too. A club I would happily see go out of business tbh.

    It was the whole package that game. I wasn't there but heard enough from people who were that their rough house, ****housery tactics was constant from the kick off. Niggly fouls, constant appeals for free kicks and bookings at the slightest of our challenges, especially from their bench, players targeted for fouls culminating in Watmore being assaulted. It was topped off by the attitude of their fans, players and management at the end with the brawl between the benches with players already substituted given red cards and the half hearted apology for injuring Watmore. Everyone I've spoken to who was there that day came away with a dislike of them as a result, which was topped off with the "our house" arrogance from them the next season down there and quite a bit of snidyness from their fans about us ever since that first game, including last year.

    It's one of those unknowns, but if Watmore hadn't been injured, would our season have ended differently? His pace would have been another option later in the season.

    One of the worst awaydays ever been on. Best part was having a quiet pint in London after.

    Hackett demands FA action as 'clear punch' on O'Nien missed in Sunderland clash

    *Insert name of Wycombe thug* must be handed a retrospective 3-match ban for his “clear punch” on Sunderland midfielder Luke O’Nien.

    That is the view of ex-Premier League referee Keith Hackett, speaking exclusively to Football Insider after Sunderland’s 3-1 win on 28 August.


    https://www.footballinsider247.com/sunderland-v-wycombe-punch-warrants-retrospective-action-hackett/

    Fair enough, he's got the player's name wrong but he's one of their clowns and a ban would be right, it might send Ainsworth a message.

    Of course the Wycombe supporters will claim O'Nien made him do it.

    Embassing that the lino missed it. Nothing subtle about it from their lad, a clear right hook. The officials should be shot with ****. Putting players in danger by having a big day out at the SoL.

    See that’s something I don’t get. O’nien is a wind up merchant. He’s great at it. Traore got sent off for boro against us but it was overturned on appeal due to “provocation”

    So that means, if someone pushes you and you smack them in the mouth, it’s ok?

    Really he should be banned for the return fixture. Other teams getting the advantage of an infringement against us.

    All O'Nien's fault according to the Wycombe fans who always think their players are blameless.

    Fair enough but it’s still frustrating. We scored 3 goals against them with 11 men. How many could we have scored playing against 10 men for a long period of the game? Goal difference could be the difference in us going up or not. Dirty bastards Wycombe.
