League One play-offs edit

On 9 June 2020, League One clubs voted by an overwhelming majority to curtail the 2019–20 season early due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom. It was announced the same day that the play-offs would still be played and that positions would be determined on a points per game (PPG) basis. This meant that Wycombe Wanderers finished 3rd in the League One table, thus occupying the first play-off spot.[9]

Berks & Bucks FA Senior Cup edit

On 13 August 2019, Wycombe Wanderers confirmed that they would take part in the BBFA Senior Cup for the first time since 2014 having won it 29 times. Since they are a League (EFL) member, they were given a bye to the Quarter Finals. The draw was made after the 2nd round matches had been completed, with Wycombe Wanderers being drawn against Hungerford Town of the National League South.[14] Wycombe won 3–0 against Hungerford to set up a tie with Spartan South Midlands Premier Division side Newport Pagnell Town[15] On 17 April 2020, the Berks & Bucks Football Association announced that the competition had been cancelled and all results would be expunged due to the 2019–20 COVID-19 pandemic.[16]
