Wycombe Wanderers came out 1-0 winners against Blackburn Rovers in a scrappy affair at Adams Parks on Good Friday.
Fred Onyedinma scored the only goal of the game with a header from a Joe Jacobson corner in the 47th minute.
The Chairboys' manager, Gareth Ainsworth, is a boyhood Blackburn fan and admitted that he doesn’t like to see his hometown club lose, but, three points for his side is what matters.
The Wycombe boss also complimented his opposite number, Tony Mowbray, who is coming under more pressure after Rovers continued a poor run of form.
After the game, Ainsworth said: “Tony Mowbray paid me big compliments before the game ‘saying this will be tough’ and ‘the team emulates their manager’ and that is a huge compliment from someone who I have got a huge amount of respect for.
“He has achieved a lot in the game and was a fantastic player.
“It makes the victory worse!
“Blackburn have lost and I don’t like that, ever.
“It is the first result I look for, closely followed by QPR and Preston but Wycombe will always be the main result for me and if I to sacrifice Rovers getting three points today, I’m pleased but I hope they can win the rest of their games.”
The Chairboys now look ahead to Easter Monday where they will face fellow relegation candidates Rotherham United in a must-win game.
