During the 2000β01 English football season, Wycombe Wanderers competed in the Football League Second Division.
Having barely escaped relegation the previous season, this time round Wycombe achieved survival in the Second Division by a comfortable margin. Their defensive record, the best of any team outside the top six, ensured they finished well clear of relegation in 13th place. Wycombe enjoyed their greatest success in the FA Cup, defeating First Division teams Grimsby Town, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Wimbledon before edging Premier League side Leicester City 2β1 at Filbert Street; this result caused Leicester, then sitting fourth in the Premier League, to enter a poor run of form that dragged them down to 13th. The win at Leicester set up a dream semi-final tie against Liverpool at Villa Park β Wycombe pushed GΓ©rard Houllier's men all the way before losing 2β1; Liverpool would go on to finish third in the Premier League and win a treble of the League, FA and UEFA Cups.
