For info: The website was put together by good friend Phil Ball a few years back, initially calling on stats passed on by Dave Finch and press cuttings left by Steve Maguie & others. It has since evolved to capture more material, with this latest release being the most accessible.

The evidence supporting the 1887 date is in the Wycombe Wanderers history book by Dave Finch & Steve Peart. It is fairly clear, with the exception of the final paragraph. I suspect my find is a different 'Wycombe Wanderers' but it was a shock to discover. I'll post more as I find anything related.

Following on from the first recognised game for 'Wycombe Wanderers' [1887], the first game with a recorded line-up was v Wycombe Rovers on 22nd October 1887. The press referred to the team as 'North End Wanderers'. Line-ups of only 7 of the 14 games in 1887/88 have been found to date🔎

On the day we note the first widely recognised game of the club now known as Wycombe Wanderers, my research has revealed the name was first used a full 11 years previous in 1876, 1️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ years ago! This club later received a significant donation from Colonel Carrington M.P.

Yes, Phil entered all the line-ups into a database but it was the late Dave Finch who spent hours down High Wycombe library noting all the early line-ups. He really should be credited too

#OTD Saturday 24th September 1887 1️⃣3️⃣9️⃣ years ago The first game of the Wycombe Wanderers F.C. took place on The Rye and ended 0-0. It was against the wonderfully named 'Nose Club'. But who were they? The local press asked the question too, and they had no joy either...

4️⃣0️⃣ years ago I had begun preparing the first edition of the Wycombe Wanderers fanzine 'Chairboys Gas'. I'd splashed out £399 on an Amstrad PCW 8256. This would be used for the text. The actual layout would still rely on physical 'cut and paste', plus Letraset for headings ✂️
