Wycombe manager Gareth Ainsworth believes it will be ‘negative’ to look at the Chairboys’ 0-0 home draw against Rotherham United as a case of two points dropped.

Wanderers dominated the contest against the league leaders, most notably in the second half, but couldn’t find that decisive goal that would have secured their third straight league win.

The Millers defended brilliant with Richard Wood and Michael Ihiekwe throwing their bodies on the line to thwart any Chairboy attacks, as the fixture at Adams Park finished goalless.

This means that Rotherham remain top of the League One table on 77 points, whilst Wycombe drop down to eighth on 62 points.

They are now three points of the play-off places.

Speaking after the stalemate, Ainsworth said: “I thought it’s two points dropped looking at the game and I’ll be frustrated that we didn’t score, but I really never look at it like that as that’s a negative thing.

“We’ve added another point onto our total and that point could get us into the play-offs at the end of the season and that’s how I am looking at it.

“The boys know what is at stake and I have always said to judge us after 46 games and hopefully we will be in the top six.”

The 48-year-old also dismissed the notion that he and his players will be looking at other results as we enter the final stretch of the season.

On the same day as Wanderers’ 0-0 draw against Paul Warne’s side, who have only conceded five away league goals since August, Sheffield Wednesday smashed Cambridge United 6-0 to move above the Chairboys, whilst Oxford United, Sunderland, Milton Keynes and Plymouth Argyle all picked up wins.

He continued: “It’s in our hands.

“There is no way we are looking at other results to go in our favour.

“We have 27 points to play for, and if we get all 27, we could make second place and that’s how I will be billing it to the boys.

"Performances is what I am about and that was good enough for me."

The 0-0 draw against Rotherham means a clean sheet has been kept in the last five fixtures between the two sides.
