He was a passenger, and if you didn't watch the game you certainly wouldnt have seen how awful he was.
As for a job after football...I recommend he goes into the building industry, as a building.

Don't forget that what goes around comes around. There will come another time when we are in Oxfords position. Im glad they didn't win, although I didn't particularly care for Wycombe, but I'm not going to rub their noses in it.
Well here is a big pile of shit, and here is an ol' boy from Botley. I am circulating his head, face-down around said pile, to make sure it's right up both his nostrils. I feel so warm & fuzzy that I am giving bamboo a virtual hug, and giving JBZ a virtual spooning!

Fair play to Adebayo Akinfenwa too for making The Championship for the first time in his career at 38 years of age. He scored his first goal against Swindon for Boston in 2003!
I always associate him with Torquay United but he was only with them for a season. I remember that strike partnership with Leon Constantine and Jo Kuffour causing us all sorts of problems (they still went down).
I believe that his goal for Boston against us in 2003 was his first in English football. I would be very surprised if they don't bin him off this summer, there is no sentiment in football. Thought his post match interview was great and nice touch from Klopp as well. Actually thinking about it, perhaps they could give him a 1 month deal so he can at least have 5 mins somewhere so he can say he played at Championship level.

If he's as popular as it looks then I imagine a player-coach role might be offered. They don't have a lot of experience in the coaching staff beyond the manager.

Popular players are great to have around the dressing room wether playing or not, his heart seems in it for Wycombe so your suggestion could well be proved correct. Its also something us fans don't hear much about, if a player is a great influence in the dressing room as its the inner sanctum, it is rarely leaked out, thats one reason a lot of managers like to have players they know wont upset the apple cart and have a positive effect on morale. Good luck to him, at 38 hes been around a long long time and he is also the sort of player you don't argue with, if he says you jump, you would say how high.

On last nights performance whatever he said, it would be higher than he can jump!

I was on-board with everything you were saying until you used the word marginally...

even with my metal back I can bench press 200lbs still, although the ability to walk a few days after may be a problem

Havent looked back.
Pox blew it...and Wycombe stuck to their guns and had a slice of luck ref the last ditch blocks etc. Actually Wycombe didnt do too much of the Shit Housery!!
Why did the Pox fella not shoot!?
Why did the Pox keeper win the race for the ball and then attempt to catch it.....should of been a Superman horizontal punch....snick the ball...clatter the lad.
Anyway...they blew it, so two cup finals next season.
Lets hope it will be full houses as the League and Plod would be happy for reduced capacity and no away fans.

Saheed Adebayo Akinfenwa has had a decent lower league career. I suspect he could still do a job in league 2.
