The big game for Doddsy, first home match for him against informs Bristol Rovers (who are in a relegation battle) were looking to get a third straight win in the league. We on the other hand had come off a disappointing draw against 22nd placed Crawley Town and were hoping to get a win.
I was on the
terrace for this game. And for a Tuesday night match there was a good turnout
of over 4000 fans. The terrace was full and the atmosphere high we were ready
to go.
The first
half was average. Both teams had chances. A cross that seemed more of a shot
was the first of the mini onslaught from the blues. The biggest chance of the first
half when Cameron Humphreys (who played very well as always) put a delicious
ball in the box waiting for someone to get to it. Joe Low was the first to
react a header across to the back post for back in the starting line-up Caleb
Taylor to tap home, but a heroic stop from the goalie and some great defending
lead to no goal just a mass pile up.
The rest of
the first half played out with no fuss just the terrace blasting out
appreciation for Will Norris in goal and “no noise from the Bristol boys
The second half
was electric we started strong and our knocking on the paid of with Cam Humphrys
swinging a foot from a pass from Dan Harvie and it trickles into the corner.
1-0 Wycombe. The terrace exploded, people everywhere jumping, singing, laughing
closing together, all celebration the same success. It was beautiful.
The second
wasn’t that long behind eight minute later Dan Udoh grabbed a second. Will
Norris with a long ball to split the defence Udoh took it down ran a yard or so,
faked the defender and put it in the corner with the coldness of a inform striker.
Thing got better for the Blues when substitute Shaq Forde got a straight red to
send him to an early shower with “Cheerio” blasting in a chorus from the fans.
The game
finished 2-0 with Dan Udoh claiming Man of the Match. The boys played well with
holding midfielder Xavier Simons and right-back Fin Back having good debuts for
the Blues. Fin Back was my MOTM. The kid has given some competition to Club Captain
Jack Grimmer.
We need to
take this win and confidence to St Andrews to face top team Birmingham. COME ON
YOU BLUES
