Gareth Ainsworth said it made no difference to him who Wanderers ended up facing in the play-off semi-finals.

Before Alfie Mawson scored with the last kick of the game against Northampton on Saturday, Wycombe were going to be playing Stevenage but his 97th minute winner handed Blues fourth place and a tie against Plymouth.

The Chairboys have beaten each of the three other teams in the play-offs with their only defeat in six meetings against them coming against the Pilgrims at Adams Park in February.

“You’ve got beat all the teams in the play-offs, so it didn’t matter who we were facing,” Ainsworth said.

“If Plymouth are the best side in the play-offs then they will be at Wembley and they would have been at Wembley if they’d have played Southend.

“If we’re the best side in the play-offs then we’ll be at Wembley. You’ve got to turn up on the day and beat what’s in front of you. It’s not in me and it’s not in my players to settle for a draw. I’ve got a bunch of boys in there (the dressing room) that I believe in.”

The Blues boss was cheered by the return of defender Joe Jacobson to the substitutes bench after injury and he was hopeful of having more bodies back for their play-off campaign.

Home Park is the venue for the first leg on Saturday evening before Wanderers will look to finish the job in front of their own fans on May 14.

“We’ve got a week to get ready for Saturday against Plymouth, who’ve had a good result against Shrewsbury today so we know we’re in for a tough couple of legs,” said the Wycombe boss.

“If we can get through them everyone knows what’s waiting then, and what a fantastic season that would be. There’s just real pride coming from me today (Saturday), and the fans at the end.

“They (the fans) were brilliant. This club has turned round in so many different ways, and I’m so proud to be the Wycombe boss today (Saturday).”
