Wycombe Wanderers left-back Dan Harvie admitted that his side were ‘sloppy’ during the opening 45 minutes in their recent win over Bristol Rovers.

The Scotsman, who joined the Chairboys from Buckinghamshire rivals Milton Keynes in the summer for an undisclosed fee, scored the equaliser with 15 minutes remaining, before Joe Low headed in a 96th minute winner for Wycombe.

Harvie’s strike was on his weaker right foot, and was his goal for the club since moving to Adams Park.

Speaking on the performance, he said: “It was a good performance overall, but I did think we started a bit slow and we weren’t getting the balls in the right areas for people to do their thing.

“Maybe around 10 minutes before half-time is when we started playing good football and at half-time, we had a discussion as we knew we had to be more on the front foot in the second half.

“We knew we couldn’t be as sloppy but we got better as the game went on.”

On his goal, which flew into the top-left corner, he added: “I’m just glad it went in! It was a great pass from Az (Aaron Morley) as he saw me do the overlap, so it got me into position, and I’m just glad we won.

“It’s always a great feeling to score in the final minute, home or away, it’s just an incredible feeling.”

When asked if he knew if his attempt was going in, he concluded: “At the start I did, but then I saw one of their centre backs backtrack on the line and I thought, ‘please don’t touch it’, and it’s funny because I’ve scored more goals on my weaker right foot than on my stronger so that’s another one for the collection.”

After the match at the Memorial, Wanderers boss Matt Bloomfield also had his say on Harvie’s performance.

He said: “Dan is a very good player.

“We did a lot of work trying to bring Dan to the club, and when he was at MK Dons, he played a lot at wingback, but he can also play as a left-sided centre back.

“He has now got both sides to his game and to get him at the snip of a price we did was a bargain.

“My old teammate Russell Martin signed him at MK and I have always kept my eye on him – so when he became available in the summer, he was on that we had to go for.”
