Wycombe Wanderers
Four years ago, Wycombe finally made the Championship for the first time, then their fans couldn’t see them because of the pandemic. They were relegated on the last day and remain in League One, but they are still a fun day out.
LOCATION: High Wycombe, about 35 minutes west of London’s Marylebone Station. “High” in the UK, by the way, is like saying “Main” in the U.S., so there’s no Low Wycombe. There is a West Wycombe, but let’s move on.

NICKNAMES: The Chairboys, because High Wycombe has been known since the 16th century as a center for furniture manufacturing, especially chairs. Their particular claim to fame is the Windsor chair. There’s even a Chair Making Museum in town, if you’re interested.

Stadium
Pictures of Adams Park (capacity 9,448) make it look as if it’s surrounded by trees and fields. And it is—on three sides. On the fourth side is the industrial estate you’ll probably spend 15 minutes walking through to get there. Bit of an odd place in that regard, but a nice one once you’re there. Just over half the seats are in the main Frank…

Going to a Game at Wycombe Wanderers
GETTING THERE: If you’re walking from High Wycombe Station, plan for an hour. You can knock about 30 minutes off that by taking the 32 bus from Stop S just outside the train station.
