It was evident from this match that our boys are feeling the strain of their strenuous opening programme.

Six matches in nine days takes some standing particularly when the opposition turns every match into a cup-tie. Even so we could have had this match sewn up in the first half when we were much the superior team.

Our forwards were a little of target and chances that a week ago would easily have been accounted for were well off target.

Our only goal came after twenty-four minutes when David Hyde easily converted a penalty for a handling offence.

In the second half John Swannell was frequently in action and his finger tip full length saves from Paul Bates and left half Gale showed why he is England's No.1 keeper.

In the dying seconds a thrilling run down the left wing also brought us full points. Laurie Churchill's final shot trickling past the far post.

Wycombe's equaliser came in the 77th minute when Bates scrambled the ball through a crowd of our defenders. In the circumstances a well earned point.
