A stadium with real heritage, Bloomfield Road has been the home of Blackpool since 1900. It boasts a capacity of 16,000 and has seen the highs of the Premier League and the lows of League Two. People may consider Blackpool a fallen giant, but throughout history, Wycombe Wanderers have faced Blackpool throughout The chairboys EFL History.

The Chairboys have had a good run of results at Bloomfield Road, picking up several wins in the early 1990s before suffering defeats in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The first result came in November 1993 in Division Two, where Martin O'Neill's Wycombe Wanderers side, sitting 4th in the table, faced off against a Blackpool team led by a 40-year-old Sam Allardyce, who were 6th at the time. Wycombe Wanderers managed to secure the win as Paul Kerr scored on his debut to bring all three points back to Buckinghamshire.
