Rammell commented to The Citzen newspaper "I'm gutted because I only signed for Forest Green a week ago and was really looking forward to the season.

A heavily experimental Wanderers side went down 2-1 to Beaconsfield SYCOB on Friday evening in the opening pre-season friendly of the 2004/5 season.

There was a blow for Keith Ryan on 30 minutes when he was forced off with an ankle injury following a late challenge. More details
Tony Adams FIFA RESTRICT SUBS
(Friday 9th July 2004)
Tony Adams originally said he would be taking a squad of around 22 players to the match at Beaconsfield. However, a new FIFA directive limiting substitutes in all matches to six scuppered his plans. The Wycombe told the BFP "I can work around the new rule. I've got enough games arranged. At this stage of the season, training is more important than the games anyway. I will go down and look at the pitch and if it is not a decent surface I may take out the big guns altogether."
Scott Marshall MARSHALL TO RETURN?
(Friday 9th July 2004)
Rejected centre-half Scott Marshall has joined Wanderers for pre-season training and has impressed Tony Adams so much so that the Wycome boss says he may feature in his plans next season. Adams told the BFP "He could be the player up my sleeve. If we can get Scott through pre-season we will talk again but if he breaks down I think he will call it a day." Marshall was released by Adams at the end of the 2003/4 campaign after an injury blighted six month spell at Wycombe.
