FC Beaconsfield 1 v Wycombe Town FC 2

Away to FC Beaconsfield in the Premier Division, Wycombe Town picked up another valuable three points with an excellent teamwork display winning 2-1. ‘Town’ dominated the first half playing some great passing football and restricted Beaconsfield to random counter attacks. The first goal came from a corner which Beaconsfield failed to clear and 'man of the match' Gary Cook was on hand to put the ball in the net to make the score 1-0 at half time. The second half saw Beaconsfield get more into the game but the 'Town' defence held good and after a direct passing move up the pitch Michael Butcher was there to drive the ball into the net to make it 2-0. ‘Town’ held steady and even scored a third goal which unfortunately was an own goal, making the final score a very deserved 2-1 win.

SUNDAY 17th FEBRUARY

Wycombe Town FC's next fixture is this Sunday 17th February, where we play FC Beaconsfield in a Premier Division match at Holtspur. The clubs have faced one another many times over the years and the games are always close. Both teams are in a 'transition season' looking to build for the future and it will be an interesting game.

WIN FOR 'TOWN' !

In wet, windy, miserably cold and muddy conditions, ‘Town’ visited Ferny Fields at Booker to play King George V in a Premier division game. Kicking into the wind, ‘Town’ went on the attack restricting ‘King George’ to random counter attacks which the ‘Town’ defence handled well. After pressurising the ‘King George’ defence ‘Town’ got a break which James Hall capitalised on and slotted the ball into the net to make the score 1-0 at half time. Amazingly able to play some passing football in the bad conditions, ‘Town’ found themselves 3-0 up after Allison Batista drove the ball into the net and then Michael Butcher neatly chipped the keeper. ‘Town’ then let the lead slip with two soft goals and a superb shot and the score was even at 3-3. Making two late substitutions ‘Town’ went for the winner and pressurised the ‘King George’ goal mouth and substitute Craig Mant in only his second outing after injury in 10 months, latched on to a great through ball from Batista and drove the ball home, for ‘Town’ to claim all three points winning 4-3.

New Blue White and Brown kit!!!

PREMIER DIVISION ACTION!

Wycombe Town FC return to Premier Division action this week with a visit to Booker playing fields to play King George V. With key players returning from injury 'Town' are hoping for a return to winning ways.

'TOWN' YOUTH WIN 5-2!

Wycombe Town FC Youth 5 v Taplow United Youth 2

With Wycombe Town FC without a game this week our Youth team took the headlines. ‘Town’ attacked straight from the kick off and dominated play which eventually led to a great move with Dan Mason threading the ball to Marvin Taylor to score, this was shortly followed by another from Taylor and 2 from Khalil Hogan who’s pace was a threat all match. Taplow then got a well taken goal from a rare breakaway; the first half finished 4-1 and could have been much more. The second half was more even; Taplow became a bit more physical and tried to break up the ‘Town’ play, this allowed them to get some good possession and eventually to score making it 4-2. This spurred ‘Town’ to put in a massive effort and with a more open game both teams had chances but Taylor struck and finally got his hat trick and settled the match beyond doubt, giving ‘Town’ a well deserved 5-2 win.

'YOUTH TEAM CUP WIN!'

With Wycombe Town FC's Premier league match with King George V frozen off, it was 'Towns' youth team who took center stage!

Wycombe Town AFC’s met old adversaries Blackstone Kites in a Cup Match on Sunday. ‘Kites’ were always going to provide stiff opposition and a competitive game, especially in the frosty conditions. With ‘Town’ improving as the season has progressed, they were still chasing that elusive first win, the game started well with ‘Town’ in full flow, moving the  ball quickly through the opposition with neat passing and dynamic wing  play. After intense pressure from ‘Town’ forcing six or seven corners and many scoring chances, Greg O’Hara finally popped up to powerfully head the first goal to make it 1-0 at half time.  Blackstone Kites were right back in the game as the second half started, scoring almost straight from the kick off to even the score. That seemed to create a spark for ‘Town’ and attack after attack followed, eventually the pressure counted and Dan Mason weaved through their defence and slid the ball left footed past the goalkeeper. ‘Town’ continued to press and it paid off again with O’Hara getting his second to make the final score 3-1 and book ‘Towns’ place in the next round with a well deserved win. Both teams should be congratulated on trying to play good football in difficult conditions

SUNDAY 2nd NOVEMBER

Wycombe Town FC travel to the Wycombe Rye to play King George V, in a Premier Division game this Sunday, 2nd November, with a 10.30 kick off time.

Disappointing Loss!

Wycombe Town FC visited Shelly Road to play Masters in the Premier division and disappointingly lost 9-1. Top of the league Masters played some excellent football and an improving Town found them hard to contain. 'Town' had their chances but could not get the ball into the net, apart from a 'goal of the match' shot scored by 'Town's' current 'top shot' Liam Holder. Training continues at Wye Valley School Astroturf on Wednesdays 7.20 meet for 7.30 start, existing and new players welcome..see you there!!!.

FC D&B 1 v WYCOMBE TOWN FC 1

Wycombe Town FC travelled to Holmer Green to play FC D&B in a Premier Division match. 'Town' started well playing good passing football and producing telling through balls to create some good shooting chances. FC D&B who were tending to rely on the counter attacks, were always in the game and also created some good scoring opportunities. On one of many 'Town' attacks, they built the play well and Simon Bochenski found Micheal Butcher with a great through ball and 'Butch' slotted the ball past the keeper into the net to make it 0-1 at half time.

The second half followed the pattern of the first and was very even with both sides creating chances and defending well, midway through the half FC D&B managed to get a goal back to make it 1-1 and both side had late chances to win the game. 'Towns' Richard Smale made a fantasic save and Paul Godwin cleared off the line, 'Town' could also have wrapped it up late on when they had a couple of 'one on ones' with the FC D&B keeper who manged to get the ball away.

11th November 2012

Wycombe Town FC played Hare & Hounds at Holtspur in the Premier Division, it was a difficult game for 'Town' who are building their playing squad after a difficult start to the season. Hare & Hounds dominated large parts of the first half and went in at half time 3-0 up. 'Town' started the second half in a much better way, passing the ball around they got a goal back from Darren Larkin to make it 3-1 and could have had more, Hare & Hounds relied more on counter breaks in the second half and scored two more in this way to win 5-1.

Sunday 4th November

Wycombe Town FC's next match on Sunday 4th November, sees a visit from Italia Unita to Holtspur. With the return of several 'old Town regulars' to play the  'developing new faces of Town', it should be an interesting game. 

Youth share points!

Result : Naphill Youth 1 v Wycombe Town AFC Youth 1

On Sunday with the majority of Wycombe Town AFC Youth still only 16, they came up against high flying Naphill, an experienced youth side of virtually all 6 ft plus 18 year olds and creditably came away with1-1 draw.

In the first half the boys passed the ball well and took the lead with a typical piece of intricate play allowing Greg O'Hara to coolly slot the ball past the Naphill keeper. The pitch was heavy and began to cut up but ‘Town’ stuck to their task and tried to play slick passing football. Naphill sent wave after wave of long balls over the top, but ‘Town’ defended resolutely and turned every defence into an attack. Naphill had a slight piece of luck which handed them an equaliser but a change of tactics allowed ‘Town’ to put pressure on the opposition goal and only their keeper kept the score at 1-1. Late on a closely called offside disallowed goal would have given ‘Town’ victory but they had to settle for a well-deserved draw.

POINTS SHARED!

Result : Wycombe Town FC 1 v FC Beaconsfield 1

An improving Wycombe Town side started well and gave FC Beaconsfield a few scares early in the first half; playing some neat passing football they created several chances. With a few new faces in the line up, ‘Town’ moved the ball well and on one driving attack down the left, Steve Perry crossed a great ball which Liam Holder met with a flying header which powered in to the net. FC Beaconsfield began to get back into the game and equalised to make it 1-1 at half time.

 In the second half the game continued evenly matched, with each team squandering chances and 'Town' could wrapped it up in the last minute, when they broke away but the shot squirmed past the post and they had to end up sharing the points.

The season continues on Sunday the 21st October, with a home game @ Holtspur, against FC Beaconsfield, in the Premier division, 10.30 kick off.
