Josh Griffiths in action for Bristol Rovers with his name and No.1 on the back of his shirt

Albion’s loanees experienced a hugely successful weekend, with all four players in action earning victories for their respective sides.

In Sky Bet League One, defender Caleb Taylor completed the whole fixture as Wycombe Wanderers claimed a thrilling 3-2 triumph away at Lincoln City.

Tendayi Darikwa opened the scoring for the hosts, but Wycombe hit back twice through Richard Kone and Fred Onyedinma to lead at the break. 

Joe Low made it 3-1 inside the last 20 minutes and although Darikwa pulled one back with three minutes remaining, Taylor’s team held out to stay top of the table. 

Elsewhere in the same division, goalkeeper Josh Griffiths kept an impressive clean sheet away from home for Bristol Rovers who won 1-0 at Mansfield Town. 

Luke McCormick scored the encounter’s only goal moments into the second period. The result pushed the Gas up to 13th in the table, six points clear of trouble.

In the Southern League Premier Central division, goalkeeper Ronnie Hollingshead and midfielder Matt Richards both played 90 minutes for Alvechurch as they secured a 1-0 home win over Bedford Town.

The game’s decisive moment arrived in the 13th minute when Archie Crowther put the Church 1-0 up. The victory lifts Alvechurch up to 15th, two points clear of the danger zone.
