TOWN UPSET THE ODDS!


Dee Road Rangers 2 – 3 Wycombe Town FC. Wycombe Town FC travelled to Reading to play high flying Dee Road Rangers, in their quarter final, Berks & Bucks Intermediate Cup match, with a bare eleven, due to late injury calls on key players. Town were on the offensive from the start and after 25 minutes Vinny Cuva fired in to make it 1-0, The powerful Andy Nicol and Michael Butcher combination up front caused Dee Road Rangers all sorts of problems and 5 minutes later Andy Nicol slotted the ball into the net to make it 2-0 at half time. After 60 minutes Rangers got one back but shortly after, Cuva cut in from the wing to see his shot parried away but Nicol slammed it into the net to make it 3-1. With Town tiring, Rangers got one back to make the final score 3-2 . Town defended the remainder of the game resolutely with Alan McKie & Alister Nicol solid at the back and captain Darren Crane driving the midfield, the whole team deserved the ‘Man of the Match’ award for this Cup upset!
Wycombe Town FC Reserves 4-1 Hithercroft FC. A great 4-1 win for Wycombe Town Reserves over Hithercroft on Sunday propelled them to the top spot in Division two; goals were scored by James Hall 2, Blake George and Steve Perry 1 each.
