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]
