HARTLEPOOL UNITED lost their third successive League Two game, going down 2-1 at Wycombe. 

The Chairboys have dropped just four points to date, conceding only two goals in the process, but in this open game could have conceded more than one to Pools. 
In a lively and open start, Gareth Ainsworth’s side went close four times before they opened the scoring on 27 minutes. 
A routine long ball from the back rolled clear for Harrimon to get there first ahead of Dan Jones and crack a curling first-time shot into the bottom corner. 
But Pools levelled on 43 minutes.

Carl Magnay - sent off at the end - swopped passes with Rakish Bingham and his charge into the penalty area from right-back was rewarded with his first goal for the club via a deflection.
Billy Paynter clipped a shot against the post with keeper Matt Ingram beaten amid some hesitant home defending in first-half injury time. 
And on 57 minutes, the Chairboys won it. Harry Worley failed to challenge for a long ball, Garry Thompson won it easily, and Harriman curled in a shot high over keeper Adam Bartlett.
Pools chance to level came when Rhys Oates fired into keeper Ingram from 18 yards.
And the visitors were reduced to ten men on 86 minutes when Magnay was sent off for tangling with Ryan Sellers.
