Wycombe Wanderers manager Matt Bloomfield said he is ‘full of pride’ in seeing the club’s supporters celebrate the recent 3-0 away win at Stevenage.

Just under 900 Chairboys made the trip across the border into Hertfordshire to witness Richard Kone score a brace and Beryly Lubala bag his 10th strike of the season with a second-half header.

The result means the Adams Park team stay in the automatic promotion places with 46 goals to their name in the league – the most out of any team in the 92.

The Wanderers fans were in full voice during their visit to the Lamex, as they also earned their first victory at the stadium in the league for the first time since August 2014.

He said: “I’m full of pride at the moment.

“We can’t always control the result but you can control the effort and the identity that we put in, and those are the bits that we keep trying to chase.

“We knew in the summer that we needed to recruit more at the top of the pitch to compliment the boys we already had – we executed that and the boys that have come in, have hit the ground running.

“I hope there is more to come.”

He added: “There is real pride in watching our supporters backing the boys.

“They’re enjoying coming to support us and turning up in numbers with full voice.

“Nothing can replicate that feeling at the end of the game when you share it with people that you think so much of, and we want to have more of them.”

The victory was also Bloomfield’s 50th as Wycombe manager, in what was his 103rd game in charge.
