Most football fans will do anything they can to watch their beloved team play, and this Wycombe supporter is no different.
Thomas Davidson, who is also known as the ‘Wycombe drummer’, made it his mission to attend every competitive Chairboys match this season.
An Adams Park regular who is known across the fanbase, the 29-year-old has not missed a single fixture since the opening day victory over Burton Albion back in July.
However, this aim for the 2022/23 campaign was in doubt when Matt Bloomfield’s side travelled to Bristol Rovers on March 14.

Originally penned in for Saturday, January 21, the fixture was called off due to a frozen pitch.
Re-arranged to a Tuesday night in March, Thomas realised that he would not be able to catch the supporters coach at Adams Park due to work.
So what did he do?
He decided to book a taxi from Aylesbury to Bristol that cost him an eye-watering £180.
And amazingly, the cleaner only missed the first 15 minutes and managed to arrive at the Memorial Stadium in time for Brandon Hanlan’s opener 60 seconds later.
Wycombe went on to win the match 2-0.

Thomas told the Free Press: “I went straight from work to Bristol by taxi as I said to myself ‘I can’t miss any games from now till the end of the season’.
“It was down to my love for the club as I wanted to make myself heard for the players.
"I feel like if I am not there I let the team down.

“My life is Wycombe and the players need our fans to really get behind them.
“You only have one life and my one passion is Wycombe.
“I love Wycombe and yes, I stand out from most people and yes, I am a bit different on matchdays but I love this club in every aspect.”

Collectively, Thomas spent £225 on his trip to the Memorial Stadium (£180 on a taxi, £20 for the coach home, and £25 for a ticket).
And it was an evening to remember as the 2-0 win over the Pirates was Matt Bloomfield's first away from home.
As it stands, the 'Wycombe Drummer' has attended all 44 competitive matches this season.
