Thierry Gale's winner raised the roof at the Toughsheet Community Stadium and earned the goalscorer a major Bair hug.
Thelonius Bair delivered the perfect cross for fellow substitute Gale to mark his 50th appearance for Wanderers in perfect fashion with a last-minute header which secured a 1-0 win over Cardiff City and got the Whites moving again with a first win since the opening day.
