(Tuesday 24th September 2013)
A relatively strong Wanderers side eased through to the Quarter-Finals of the Berks & Bucks Senior Cup on Tuesday evening following a 4-2 victory at Chalfont St.Peter. Jon-Paul Pitman opened the scoring on 13 minutes when he angled a low shot home into the corner of the net from Jo Kufour's back-heel. Kuffour then doubled the lead three minutes later when he finished from close range after Junior Morais's shot had been parried. Former Watford, Brentford and Wimbledon striker Scott Fitzgerald pulled a goal back for the home side on 30 minutes with a low shot past goalkeeping coach Lee Harrison but Josh Scowen, on his return from injury, fired in on the stroke of half-time to restore the two goal lead. Paris Cowan-Hall made his return from injury during the final 15 minutes and saw Wycombe hit a fourth goal on 82 minutes when Anthony Stewart powered home a header from Matt Spring's corner. Fitzgerald hit his second of the evening in the 88th minute to provide another consolation for the non-League side. Wanderers now await the draw for the Q/F to be played during the middle of November. Wanderers: Harrison, Arnold, Stewart, Dunne, Angol, Spring, Bloomfield (sub 75 Kretzschmar), Scowen, Pittman, Kuffour (sub 75 Cowan-Hall), Morias - subs not used: Ingram, Morgan - Att:142

Matchday WYCOMBE 1 YORK CITY 1
(Saturday 21st September 2013)
Wanderers had to settle for a 1-1 draw with lowly York City at Adams Park on Saturday and had to come back from a goal down. David McGurk had given the visitors the lead in the 64th minute when he headed back across goal from an unmarked position to beat the dive of Matt Ingram. However, Wanderers responded and were level five minutes later when Matt McClure's shot from the left of the area struck the far post and Dean Morgan was on hand to tap in from close range. Wycombe then looked the more likely side to take all three points but a draw was probably fair on the overall share of the play. Wycombe are now 6th in the table.

PHILLIPS SELL-ON SHOCK
(Wednesday 11th September 2013)
Wanderers Chairman Don Woodward has revealed that the Club had sold out early the sell-on clause associated with the transfer of Matt Phillips to Blackpool. Phillips moved to QPR on 23rd August 2013 for a reported £5m fee and it was estimated that Wanderers would bag at least £700,000 in sell on fees. However, Blackpool began negotiations with cash strapped Wanderers in January 2013 to buy out the clause and a £200,000 payment was eventually agreed at the start of August 2013 just days before the QPR move came to light.
