Wycombe Wanderers have confirmed that a guard of honour will be conducted for the departing Adebayo Akinfenwa in their home match against Doncaster Rovers.
The fixture on April 2 will see the 39-year-old say his formal goodbyes to the Adams Park faithful after six years at the club, bringing an end his 22-year career in the sport as a player at the end of the season.

The guard of honour will start at 2.50pm, 10 minutes before the match against the League One strugglers will kick-off.
Out of his 194 EFL goals, Akinfenwa scored his first four coincidentally against Doncaster in a sixth month spell back in 2004, where he played nine times for the Yorkshire side.
