There have been logistical changes at the Riverside to combat the Covid-19 pandemic.

One in particular has seen what is usually the media room become the away team dressing room, while the room next door which would normally serve as the mixed zone is now set up as a temporary press conference room for post-match manager interviews.

All that separates the two rooms is some double wooden doors that aren't exactly soundproof.

It's provided some unique moments in a season of bizarre and abnormal occurrences.

One night saw an away player crash through the double doors and into the media room as he and a teammate clowned around. He sheepishly apologised as the working press pack tapped away on their laptop keyboards and returned to the makeshift dressing room.

Perhaps the best came after a Boro win and an away manager who shall remain unnamed could be heard absolutely ripping his players. The word 'cowards' was thrown about like it was reaching its expiration date. Cut to 30 seconds later when he enters the press room to give his post-match interview and immediately spoke about how much pride he had in his players for their effort. You just can't write it.

It was a very unique atmosphere on Saturday, however.

Yes, Wycombe had just beaten Middlesbrough 3-0, but it had also meant that they were condemned to relegation.

Despite that, the rather questionable tunes were playing loud, the room was bouncing, and there sounded like an overall jovial and almost celebratory mood on the other side of those doors.

It summed up a side who, having initially struggled with the step up to the second tier, have given an almighty effort in the second half of the season to battle their way to not mathematically being relegated when they arrived at the Riverside for the final day.

That dressing room did not sound like a relegated dressing room. It was a room of pride, and so it should have been.

Manager Gareth Ainsworth then summed up the feeling in his press conference.

Asked if it was a day of mixed emotions, he said: “There are no mixed emotions – I’m just really proud of what we’ve done.

“The long-term planning for Wycombe was to get into the Championship but it wasn’t supposed to happen this season. We almost pulled off the unimaginable.

“It might sound ridiculous because we’ve been relegated, but finishing third from bottom in the Championship is one of the proudest moments in my career.

“It’s the highest the club has ever finished. Half of the team have played with me in League Two. We’ve spent a lot of time trying to get into League One, so to be playing in the Championship has been a dream really.

"I'm really proud and I can't wait to get stuck into League One next year."

It wasn't the final day of the season that Boro wanted, but what we could hear on the other side of that double door summed up perfectly why Wycombe left Teesside with all three points, and why they look well-served to make an immediate return to the second tier next term.
