Good mate of mine is a Mackem, I was congratulating him on their play off place yesterday and we got to talking about Wycombe/Ainsworth - they played each other numerous times in League One, including the play off final which Sunderland won. My mate reckons Wycombe were the most horrible team they played against in terms of both style and attitude - time wasting, niggling etc - for years, and there was special joy in beating them at Wembley. In his words ‘even worse than us when we had Alex Neil as manager’.He talks a good talk....but he also said they'd be going for a win against Brizzle on Monday, so that's blown up in his face a bit
I haven’t listened to what Dobson has to say but I’ll judge based on what I see.
My mate would like to go to Wembley again, but knows promotion would end in humiliation for them. But they’ve had great fun under Mowbray since Neil left, playing kids and trying to play proper football even when they lose. Good luck to them.
