The tech billionaire rebuilding a football club from the ground up Wycombe's new owner has billions of pounds. He's choosing to spend it on a training ground and an academy to make this last forever

I went to Wycombe Wanderers, where a Georgian-Kazakh tech billionaire is aiming to defy preconceptions by rebuilding a football club from the bottom up.

This is going to be a fascinating story to follow (even before the manager leaves).

Haha .. I hadn't thought of that but thinking I may lead with a full throttle attempt as an opening gambit.

Random request. I am starting my own business in the next few weeks and as part of my sales pitch, I need a physical copy of the #yellowpages. Anyone out there have an old copy in their cupboard/garage? Ideally in #WestYorkshire but I can pay for postage.

I haven't posted in a wee while so thought I'd come back with a bang and add a weighty discussion point into the Bluesky mix. Alas, I can't think of fuck all. So,here is a pic of my border collie driving ...

As per other comments, better than evens chance of getting through to round 4, Pompey will bring a large following and, we get to give Freddie Potts a good reception. Will be interesting to him up against this season's midfield (loan recalls pending).

Only nice thing about an AM kick-off is we can sit back, enjoy the weekend and wait for the draw. And we can't get the usual Northampton away in round 3 either.

He had a real purple patch of goals when he made the first team. Other interests like dj'ing and Holly Vallance were probably what stopped him going higher in the game.

Jonny Dixon is another one from that era who I thought was gonna push on.

Wise Guy: David Chase and The Sopranos ... best two hours of tv viewing this year. Opening scene of Part One which is shot to make it appear Chase is in the Car with Tomy is spine-tingling. And the ending is perfect ... just like the series.

The intent from the new owners is undeniable. We are poaching staff from Championship clubs. Such a special time to be a Wycombe fan #upthewyc

I think Rob Couhig put an end to the torrent of free tweets in an effort to boost paid-for-content. I kind of get it but they have dried up to the point that following the official club feed is next to pointless.

It is a long arsed season though. No guarantees on Morley and Humphreys being at AP in Jan. One recall and an injury then, I am sure he will see plenty of game time. If not, you're probably right and he is farmed out end of Jan.

Anyone out there done #tramlines festival before in the steel city? How does it compare to similar fare on offer? I am considering joining the scrum for the presale on Thursday #tramlinesfestival #sheffield

Anyone else despair when you base your dog walks around the BBC app only to by confronted by a dirty big rain cloud and a rainbow? You'd have thought Michael Fish would've learned from his previous fuck-ups.

Done it! Deactivated and uninstalled X. The football crowd for #wycombewanderers has grown on here in the last week. No point logging in for bots and bile. Fuck Elon Musk.

Whilst the academy plans continue full speed ahead, its great that we're still identifying and signing the slightly older prospects. It has unearthed some real gems in the development squad to date. Long may it continue.
