Agree, I thought Proctor was very good. Not a goal threat, but his all round play was excellent.

Lost 1 in 16 now in the league is how I like to look at it.
Re: Tranmere Rovers FC (H) match thread
There was me thinking Proctor had one of his better games, particularly in terms of link-up play, some clever passes, and closing people down. Ah well, just shows how opinions differ!SayitagainSam wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 5:38 pm Good performance, we deserved to win, but can someone please tell me what Proctor brings to the team?

Same here, I think he brings something different from Acquah.olefogey wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 5:49 pmThere was me thinking Proctor had one of his better games, particularly in terms of link-up play, some clever passes, and closing people down.

Thought Proctor battled well against two good centre halves (Davies we know about from Kelly's team), and linked up well to get Whitfield and Newby into some decent positions.
Great win, and Campbell was tremendous, performance capped by an excellent strike.

FORZA BLUEBIRDS, Buon Anno all you Bluebirds. Great win against against an in form team who always give us a hard game. Fantastic to see us get another 4000 plus gate, good turnout from Tranmere, it’s all looking good! Bluebird per sempre.

Re: Tranmere Rovers FC (H) match thread
Not a fantastic game on the eye but a great result with them being the in form team and us riding on the back of that Wrexham result.
The Proctor debate, I personally thought it was his best game for us, poor first ten minutes but grew into the game with some clever moves, flick-on’s and link up play.
Great diving punch off Farman towards the end of the game, he needed to be fully committed to that - which he was.
I didn’t think the attendance was that great when you remove the away support, but just after Christmas and all that.
Great to get back to winning ways.

We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Re: Tranmere Rovers FC (H) match thread
It’s squad rotation. He has a wealth of experience and plays the role well. The goals are spread across the team and that can only be a good thing. No sense whatsoever in picking in one player when we are where we are.SayitagainSam wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 5:38 pm Good performance, we deserved to win, but can someone please tell me what Proctor brings to the team?

Re: Tranmere Rovers FC (H) match thread
Fair play to mazeed I don’t think he’s really a full back and he’s definitely not an attacking wing back but didn’t look too bad today. Proctor brings something different and will be a valuable asset this seasonMain Stand SeasonTct wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 5:51 pmBoth Proctor and

Re: Tranmere Rovers FC (H) match thread
Personally thought Mazeed was MOTM today.
Poor game especially first half.
Couple of annoying thoughts when leaving ground, 1) why don’t they open both gates onto car park on popular side to make getting out easier and 2) which [SwearFilter] either let a car through today that couldn’t get out so people were held up or which knob in his supposedly posh car parked blocking the pathway.
