With the return of fans to stadia this season, Wanderers have returned to doing something they were so good at before the pandemic, scoring late winners at Adams Park.

The games against Morecambe and Crewe this month have both been won at the death by the Chairboys, who made a habit of ending home matches in this way during the promotion seasons of both 2017/18 and 2019/20.

The never-say-die attitude of Gareth Ainsworth and his players means they’ve been able to salvage points from nowhere, even when Wycombe haven’t played at their best.

As Wigan, Sunderland and Rotherham are likely to be around the 90-point mark come May, Wanderers will need every boost they can get, so any more last-gasp deciders at Adams Park would be more than welcome.

Ryan Tafazolli’s winner against Crewe on Saturday wasn’t the first time Wycombe have snatched it in the final moments against the Railwaymen, with a late turnaround courtesy of Michael Harriman and Nathan Tyson really sparking the 17-18 season into life.

Arguably the most famous moment in that campaign came when ten-man Wycombe trailed Carlisle 3-2 in the 92nd minute of the League Two meeting, needing a win to remain 2nd in the table with several teams hot on their heels.

Paris Cowan-Hall grabbed an equaliser, before Marcus Bean’s first goal for the club sparked delirious scenes behind the goal.

After winning promotion, Wanderers ended the following season 17th in League One, but despite that, the Adams Park faithful were treated to more late theatre.

Craig Mackail-Smith completed a comeback from two down to beat Scunthorpe, and Cowan-Hall was involved again in a 3-2 defeat of Doncaster where Wanderers’ three goals all came in the final 15 minutes.

Although the 19/20 season was ended abruptly because of the pandemic, Wycombe still squeezed in three more memorable last-minute victories on the way to the historic promotion to the Championship.

After falling to a 3-1 deficit against Southend, a brace from Scott Kashket and a goal from Anthony Stewart helped preserve the Chairboys’ unbeaten start to the campaign.

Despite a wobble over the Christmas of 2019, it was those home wins that made the difference in the end in getting Wycombe into the play-offs.

Without an away victory between November and February, two late Joe Jacobson penalties, against Doncaster and Rochdale, proved vital in getting the Chairboys to where they are now.

Wanderers are flying high once again in the third tier, and five of their six home victories this season have come by a solitary goal.

There will be sold-out away ends at Adams Park for the next two home league games against Ipswich and Portsmouth, so another couple of wins with a third 90th minute winner of the season wouldn’t go amiss.
