Manager Comments:
Darren Moore - “This week has probably been a mental re-jig. We are building up to the final week of the season, knowing what we have achieved, but there is still so much more to be achieved this season.
“That has been a motivation in itself.”
Gareth Ainsworth - "It will be a full-house, a great atmosphere and I want my boys to enjoy it, but one hundred per cent absolutely go for the win because we would love to end the season unbeaten and on a high!”
