WYCOMBE Wanderers have been drawn a home game in the fifth round of the FA Cup after their historic 2-1 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.

On February 17, the Blues will play the winner of a match between Middlesborough and Wimbledon.

Speaking after Sunday's draw at the FA headquarters, Wycombe player Steve Brown said: "It's probably not the draw we would have wanted. We would have wanted Arsenal or someone like that."

But the home tie will be another big day for Blues fans to enjoy, even though an away tie at a big Premiership club would have proved more lucrative.

Reaching the fifth round is an unprecedented achievement for Wycombe Wanderers and a tribute to the management skills of coach Lawrie Sanchez.

Wycombe player Jason Cousins, who was also at the draw, said of Sanchez: "He's been tremendous for the football club. He's turned us around from a side that struggled against relegation for a couple of seasons to a side that are looking for a play-off spot. And obviously, we're having a great cup run."

FOURTH ROUND MATCH REPORT:

Wycombe Wanderers 2 - Wolverhampton Wanderers 1

SAM Parkin headed Wycombe Wanderers into the fifth round of the FA Cup for the first time in their history in front of a sell-out crowd at Adams Park.

The on-loan Chelsea striker, who hadn't been allowed to play in the previous rounds, steered in an 83rd minute winner from Steve Brown's cross to put Wycombe into the last 16. It was a magnificant reward for the 100 fans who responded to an appeal on local radio to clear overnight snow off the pitch.

In front of the first ever Adams Park sell-out, manager Lawrie Sanchez kept faith with the 11 that beat Grimsby in the previous round.

But they were under the cosh as Wolves began brightly with Michael Branch, Andy Sinton and Adam Proudlock looking dangerous. And indeed Branch struck the bar in the 24th minute.

But Wycombe took the lead against the run of play from their first corner. Martyn Lee swung over the cross in the 37th minute. Paul McCarthy's header was saved but Rammell was on hand to pick up the pieces and force the ball over the line for his 13th of the season.

Wolves started the second half like a house on fire and hit the woodwork again when Ludovic Pollet smashed a header from Branch's cross against the bar.

The Midlanders got the equaliser they fully deserved in the 56th minute when Carl Robinson converted Lee Naylor's cross.

But Wycombe broke away to snatch the glory and a place in tomorrow's draw with Parkin's late winning header.

Prior to the match, manager Lawrie Sanchez urged his players to emerge from his shadow and write their own piece of FA Cup history.

The Blues boss, who is best remembered for heading Wimbledon's winner past Liverpool keeper Bruce Grobbelaar in the 1988 final, told his players to 'step forward and be a hero'.

He said: "I made my name in the cup. That goal is my tag line. The FA Cup is built on glory. People talk about the competition being about finances or being a route into Europe but it is about players and glory.

"Scoring winning goals puts people in the history books. The club has never got this far in the FA before. This is someone's chance to indelibly write their name into the club's history."

That name is Sam Parkin.
