If Hollywood Don't Need You (Honey I Still Do)

Other than home advantage and the right to wear gold socks at Wembley, there seems little riding on Wycombe’s last two league games of the season. The sun is due to be out tomorrow so most people are excited about the Brill Hill end of April Festival, where the annual dog slaughter is promising to be the biggest yet. [Incidentally, if anyone’s lost a guide dog, they’ve got 18 hours to get in touch].

But the Meat Clinic disagrees with this two game holiday theory for WWFC, there’s something massive up for grabs. Two wins against Notts County and Bradford will see Wycombe pass 80 points for the first time as a league club.

80 points is like a Blue Peter badge or a shotgun, it’s a medal of honour. No matter what happens in the post-season jamboree, to get over 80 points means the players can enjoy the summer in the knowledge that they put a stint in. After all the years of scratching around in the 50s and 60s, occasionally reaching a 72, finishing on 81 points would be testament to the team that Lambert has constructed.

Of course, should Wycombe fail to get promoted, the Drone Army will demand his head on a china plate but they can get fucked. If they need a reason, tell them “81 points, what else do you want, get out of my sight. You stink.”
