Tranmere

Post by Methuselah » Wed Aug 02, 2023 10:15 pm

Hand on heart are we going to turn Tranmere over on Saturday?We have a lot bigger players up front and we seem to have a more direct style of play.We still seem to be a bit vulnerable at the back.Hopefully Pete Wild has picked a team with a stronger defence.If he has done I can,t see why we shouldn,t beat them as long as they don,t start time wasting and feigning injury like last time.
I think if we come out of the blocks fast,they will try every trick in the book to slow the game down.
Let's hope we get a good referee who keeps a tight rhein on the game.I.ll be there cheering them on
wiil you be? :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:

Under the new referee guidance that should no longer be a problem :|

2 - 2

We have only beaten them 3 times in the last 14 outings

Last being in 2017 in the National league. Bit of a bogey team... having said that time to look forwards rather than back.

Fancy a 3 - 1 win with us bagging 3 in the first half

I always love your optimism Phil, we are definitely stronger than we have been since we returned to the league - but sadly most other teams are as well.

The new rules on time may scupper that!

At a £2 pound increase. Which means it’s £25 a ticket. Absolute joke at this level. We should charge them £30 for the return game

We as a club should 100% charge the away fans the same amount as they charge our fans.

Depends how you’re travelling but a lot will be drinking in Liverpool before a swim across the Mersey in time for kick off.

There’s a few pubs by the ground that serve away fans, not sure if there’s a designated away pub.
