Hanlan, who Wanderers signed from Rovers in the summer of 2021, told the Free Press: “For me, a goal is a goal regardless of who I play against.
“I’m not the type to really care if it was against a former club or not as I’m happy to score.
"Hopefully we can push on from here.
On starting alongside De Barr for the first time in his Wycombe career, he added: “I think Tjay has been class every time he has played.
