Surely any long balls will just hold up in the mud, or is the mud just down the flanks ?

Also, I doubt it's intentional, but it's a bit of a dis to Tranmere: we take your best player and we don't even need to play him
They know different, he’s our leading goal scorer and as much as some fans may like to see him play it should give them a lift having our top goal scorer sitting on the bench where he can do them know harm.

Bloody hell. 1-0 Rochdale @ Wycombe. That really is a blip.

Seems fairly even so far at Tranmere

We always look to be a man short at the back post because of the zonal marking we have along the 6 yard box.

1 shot on target, 1 goal.

Ipswich, 7 shots, 3 on target.

Big HT chat, big 2nd half.

And seriously......, does anyone REALLY know what this goalkeeping situation is all about?

Garbage !! Tranmere are the worst team ive seen and yet atm we are as bad!!! So many pointless long balls to nobody, we are so toithless up front atm. Aside from Downes, Wilson and Chambo we've been poor, that said someone should have been marking the bloody guy who rose to head home a free header !!! Much improvement needed or we lose, simple as that.

Not very encouraging mate, just been looking back at recent results and if we don’t win today it would be seven away games since our last win on the road at Rochdale on 5 November. Well we still have 45 mins to confine that stat to history, let’s hope PL socks it to them at half time.

Currently down to 5th with Coventry and Oxford both winning away against much better opposition than us, we really do need 3 points today.

Shame that Wycombe got a last minute penalty, but very happy with a win. Well done lads on that second half
