Phillips: 8 - another very commanding performance Dijksteel: 6 - gave the ball away a few times but has great powers of recovery Bauer: 7.5 - had his hands full with The Beast but did very well and nearly scored a second at the end Pearce: 8 - strong throughout and the unlikely matchwinner Purrington: 6.5 - solid as ever Cullen: 8 - held the midfield together and really is a cut above Pratley: 6- worked hard and did ok Aribo: 7 - some good moments, although not much came off for him on the night. Missed him a little further back in central midfield Lapslie: 6.5 - didn’t do much with the ball but got around the pitch well to deny Wycombe space Taylor: 7 - didn’t get much service but worked hard for the team Vetokele: 7 - better from Igor and had two decent efforts on goal Referee: 7 - did pretty well. A clean game
Phillips: 8.5 Very solid, kicking still too often goes awry Dijksteel: 8 Continually impressed with Dijksteel, would like to see him try and join the attack more Bauer: 8.5 Commanding detail with Akinfenwa easily Pearce: 8.5 "" Purrington: 6.5 Offers absolutely nothing going forward - we can do better than Purrington Cullen: 8.5 Excellent performance Pratley: 7.5 Solid enough Aribo: 7.5 Lapslie: 7 Taylor: 7.5 Vetokele: 8 Really good energy yesterday Referee: 8
I was at the game. Genuinely interested to know why you marked the referee far less than any player.
No big contestual decisons. Totally consistent with his decision making. After the second foul on Taylor by their number 2, who he warned, the ref cautioned him for the next and third foul on Taylor. Also rightly cautioned one of their defenders late in the game for a tactical foul on Taylor. Not sure what you expect from a referee.

I was at the game too. Let a lot of clear fouls go, completely ignored Akinfenwa constantly pushing Bauer and Pearce around. Compete failure to book Wycombe players when a couple of cynical fouls were made. Were quite a dirty team and the referee failed to book them early enough. He booked the player that fouled Taylor because it was the most obvious booking I've ever seen, not good refereeing, just a simple, obvious decision. I expect what we've had in more recent games excluding Plymouth where I've ranked the referees higher than a 5. To control the game and recognize constant fouling is worthy of a booking.
