NATHAN Tyson increased his market value with a hat-trick in Blues' 3-3 draw at Stockport and then admitted he is glad no-one can sign him until January.

The striker says his head has been fried ever since Wanderers turned down a £300,000 transfer deadline day bid from Cardiff City for his services, and is glad the transfer window has now slammed shut.

The 23-year-old, who was last week crowned League Two Player of the Month for August, accused Wanderers of holding him back when they rejected Cardiff's bid and said that if the club didn't sell him in the January transfer window he would leave for nothing when his contract expires in the summer.

And, although he stands by those comments, he is glad that there can't be any transfer activity until the window re-opens in the New Year.

He said: "Nothing can happen until then and I am glad it's like that. Otherwise my head would be all over the shop.

"It would have been a fried egg.

"Now with this transfer window I can just get on with things at Wycombe and get my head down because I know nothing can happen.

"It is a bonus. I can keep doing my job without all the extra pressure."

Tyson showed his mind is back on the task of firing Wanderers to promotion as he notched his third hat-trick in just 19 league matches in Saturday's thriller at Edgeley Park.

That took his tally to nine goals in nine games this season and to 40 in 73 appearances since he joined Wycombe from Reading.

His latest treble, which included a first half shot and penalty and a clinical close-range finish in the second half helped keep the fans on his side.

He said: "It was nice to hear the crowd shouting my name again. I was very worried about what the crowd's reaction to me would be. It had got me down a bit realising that I have let people down a bit by saying I want to go at the end of the season.

"But I was just being honest and I don't regret saying it.

"It was fantastic to hear the crowd shouting my name and I was delighted to score a hat-trick for them."

And, even if he is not here come the end of the season, he is determined to keep on scoring to push Wycombe closer to promotion in the time that he is here.

He said: "I will work my backside off for the gaffer. He has done a lot for me with his coaching and I want to give him and the club something back even if it does mean that I end up leaving in January.

"If I do go then I would like to think that I have given them a good stepping stone to getting promotion.

"Who knows what could happen. You never know what happens in football. I could still be here until the end of the season and in Steve Hayes' managing director eyes that could happen."
