(Friday 12th January 2001)
Two second half goals from Andy Rammell turned a potentially depressing defeat into a confidence boosting victory as Wycombe won for the first time ever against Luton. Wycombe trailed 1-0 at the break after Adam Locke's 20 yarder had hit the post and then cannoned off the back of Martin Taylor's head and into the Wycombe net. Three half-time substitutions turned the game as Rammell took his goalscoring tally for the season to ten in League and twelve overall. The £75,000 paid to Walsall back in September now looks like one of the bargain finds of the season by Lawrie Sanchez.
After the match Rammell said "The gaffer gave us a roasting at half-time, we couldn't have played any worse." Rammell has now bagged 10 League goals for the Chairboys and added "It's a massive three points, we've had to work hard second-half but in the end we've deserved it." Influential second-half substitute Martyn Lee was also singled out for praise on the live SKY coverage, he said "I don't play often but when I do I enjoy it". Wycombe jump back to 8th place in the table after the victory at Kenilworth Road.

We weren't at the game and I was pleased to get in at 1-0 down." The triple substitution at half-time was a brave decision by the boss "I paid for one one thing and I'm paid to manage and managing is what you do at half-time and sorting out the team and getting them out second-half to get a result. Credit to the lads though, we should have had more. We've wasted chances and that's been the story of our season." Wycombe jump back to eight place in the table after the victory at Kenilworth Road. Sanchez added "I can relax now and watch the other teams sweating on Saturday."
