August – Wycombe Wanderers 3-0 (H) 7.42

We start with one from this season, the big fixture against Wycombe. Many saw this as an indicator of what we might be able to achieve this season, as Wycombe were expected to be in and around the top ten. We blew the Chairboys away with a comprehensive second-half performance, a tasty little nod to what might be, if our players stayed fit.

It was 0-0 with 30 minutes to go, and Mark Kennedy brought on Jack Burroughs, Tyler Walker and Ted Bishop. Reeco Hackett opened the scoring with 22 minutes to go, Bishop added another five minutes later, and the influential Mandroiu capped off the scoring with a third ten minutes from time. The latter might be the villain of the hour now, but with a rating of 8.9 he was your overwhelming Man of the Match.
