    Schumacher would be a good shout. Martin has links with Wycombe and likes to play it out from the back. Never heard of Norsgaard but excited about the prospect. Especially given Brentford’s style of play.

    We lost Schumaker in January last and it derailed our season completely. I hope changing managers or being forced to doesn't do the same to your club. Having said that Schumaker would do a job for you if you got him.

    Looking at getting a new manager, Harlington must be above a lot of Championship clubs, financially we must have less problems again than a lot of Championship clubs, the ground is modern, being at the end of a road is a pain. I would think we are a good prospect for any manager

    Speaking on his move to Kenilworth Road, Bloomfield said he was happy to join a club that has made him feel ‘feel very comfortable and very wanted’.

    He also said that he wanted to ‘work with people who want the best for their football club’, indicating there might have been some tension between the departing manager and Wanderers’ new board.

    Bloomfield exits Buckinghamshire with the Chairboys in second place in the League One table, with only seven defeats from 35 games this season.

    Speaking on his move from Wycombe to Luton, he told the club's website: “It’s a genuine honour and a privilege to be here, to be appointed as manager of this incredible club.

    “I’m really, really proud.

    "It’s been a busy few days, a very busy weekend but I’ve met the recruitment team, met Gary and spent some time with the board.

    The fact that they’re all Luton supporters and that they care so much about their football club shone through, and the fact that they had a real big desire for me to join our football club also shone through, so I’m incredibly proud and very, very happy to be here.

    That made me feel very comfortable and very wanted, which is huge for me.

    "I want to work with people who care and fans who also care – and they certainly do here.

    "I want to work with people who want the best for their football club, and that’s more than evident with Gary, the chairman and the board of directors.

    “That feeling that they gave me and the feeling of being wanted, how much research they’ve done into me and the football team that we’ve produced at Colchester and Wycombe, and the knowledge base of what I stand for, who I am and what we’ve tried to produce in our football team left me in no uncertain times that this was the right move at the right time.”

    Assistant manager Richard Thomas and goalkeeper coach Lee Harrison have also left, meaning development boss Sam Grace will take interim charge of the Adams Park side.

    Grace will be in the dugout for Wycombe’s Berks & Bucks Cup match against Beaconsfield Town this evening [January 14].

    Luton's CEO, Gary Sweet, added: "“Before anything else, I would like to thank Wycombe for their co-operation in ensuring a swift and smooth transition.

    "It may be flattering to be on the receiving end, it’s never pleasant, but we have made sure that we’ve gone above and beyond to compensate Wycombe to secure his services, along with his trusted coaching team."

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Not difficult to conclude why he left. The bits I've highlighted in red is a concern

    The club is moving in a completely different direction, Going from Marlow Road to Harlington which has got to be a good 20mls from Wycombe. You can how it has changed

    Is'nt there a rule about what miles radius you can recruit youngsters from & I mean u16s, also if they are over 16 somebody has to drive them to an academy. Also I can't remember if Marlow Road had lights either

    From what I have read, they aren't having under 16s; at least not to start with. I believe they are starting with under 18s and under 21s. Could be wrong

    Wycombe Wanderers are set to seal a deal for Viborg’s Magnus Westergaard after moving for him over the weekend.



    That’s according to Tipsbladet, who say Wycombe’s deal for the midfielder has now ‘fallen into place’.

    They explain that after reporting over the weekend that Westergaard was on his way to Wycombe, the deal is now at the white smoke stage.

    According to their information, a deal has been done. The 26-year-old has even signed a contract until 2028 with the League One club.

    They will pay DKK 7.5m to Viborg for the player. That works out at around €1m. It’s a price that will make him Wycombe’s most expensive signing ever.


    Westergaard will join Anders Hagelskjær, who joined Wycombe earlier this month. He is the current record signing at €510,000.

    The transfer is also described as a ‘really nice transfer’ for Viborg. They paid €100,000 to sign Westergaard from Lyngby BK in 2023 so are set to make a tidy profit on him 18 months later.

    It will be the midfielder’s first move outside of Denmark in his career. With paperwork now signed and a deal done, all that seemingly remains is the announcement.

    Will Kone go to Luton or Derby, or do you think he'll stay?

    Don't think much of the swap deal being suggested in order for Swansea to get Lowe. Why would we want to swap our young centre back for an older overpaid centre back plus a bit of money? Doesn't make sense at all to me

    Kone has only just signed a new contract, as we all know everybody on the playing staff has a price, as Bloomfield has proved. I am afraid that's football today

    He has signed today Ron so i think we can safely say Morley won't be returning,Westeraad has been given a 3 year contract so he better be more than decent. <whistle>

    I think this confirms it isn’t a blooms signing as surely he would have backed out if the manager who wants to sign you leaves.

    I think like a lot of the coaches/manager these days other people are making that decision, then it's the coach/manager gets the sack
