Play-off pride for Gaz

Burton Wycombe 2

GARETH AINSWORTH was proud as his Wycombe side sealed their play-off place with victory at Burton.

Goals from Sam Vokes and Jordan Obita secured the win for the Chairboys.

“It’s job done and a new job to come,” said Wanderers boss Ainsworth (right), reflecting on a semi-final tie with MK Dons.

“I am so proud of the boys. The players stood up to the task. It’s not easy playing a team with nothing to lose.

“Wycombe Wanderers – we are in the play-offs.

“People wouldn’t have said that they fancied us to do that but I never stopped believing, the players never stopped believing and the fans didn’t stop believing either.”

Gassan Ahadme briefly levelled for Burton, but Brewers boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbain­k said: “It is a defeat that we have cost ourselves.

“I thought we were really good in the game but there is a reason why they are up at the top and we are only down in 16th.”
