Waddock has faith in Lewis

Manager Gary Waddock has backed Stuart Lewis to regain his place in the Wycombe team.

Lewis has been a regular pick in midfield for Wanderers since moving to Adams Park on loan from Dagenham last season and then signing a permanent deal in the summer.

The 24-year-old made his debut from the bench in November 2010 but has since started every game - barring injury or suspension.

However, he found himself in the unfamiliar surroundings of the substitute's bench against Tranmere on Saturday

Following the 2-1 home win over Rovers, Waddock said: "Stuey is a very good player and I rate him very highly so he has no worries.

"In many ways, he is unfortunate. He had an illness early in the season and he played very early on after that. He took a whack last week and I just wanted to give him a rest because he puts his body on the line every week."
