Tranmere (H) Match Thread

I think he has got us now where he thought he could get us and where we needed to be about 6 games ago - solid, clean sheets, harder to play against. Now we need to find a way to start turning the 0-0 draws into 1-0 wins but it's just going to be a bit too late unfortunately.

Your out of order. Pauls a good bloke

no he's not. perfectly legitimate comment about a bloke that cant manage to get us a win

Its ok singling The Shop out for missing chances- all strikers do inc players like Kane, Salah etc. The difference is they get 4 or 5 chances every game and only need to score one to keep people happy, I think Shop has had 4 decent chances over 5 games and scored one. No worse than any other striker generally (Note he is exactly the sort of player we will need in the conference next season). We just lack ambition going forward. Thought Jackson did well from the bench, and our current back 4 look really good at the moment.

That was the best I've seen town play in the last 5 months. They weren't great 1st half but they hung on in there, whereas before we would have collapsed.game changed with ira coming on and we actually looked a threat for the first time in god knows how long. Loads of positives and I'm heartened by that.no lack of effort and looked much more like a team
I will add the caveat that's its probably 2-3 months too late, but let's give credit where it's due.well done hurst and the players.that was more like it

You are watching a different game to me. Nowhere in the first half .Tranmere ran out of gas in second half probably because they played a Wembley final; three days ago. We had one chance in the game and fluffed
It.

Hurst’s comments a few weeks back were that we first needed to start keeping clean sheets, as Stevenage had done, and build up from there so albeit a bit late maybe we are starting to get there.

If we got this result when the game was originally planned to take place we probably would have been delighted with a point and half decent performance. Trouble is we are allowing the gap to get wider each week and games are starting to run out but hopefully a win at Mansfield on Saturday and we can all suffer for a bit longer before the inevitable happens.

I don’t give a sh.it if he is . He was hired to get us out of this mess unfortunately for him and he’s failed . His signings have been shocking and his results even more so . We’ve just slid into the NL with a fooking whimper

Forza, as usual is the voice of informed reason on here.

Lewis has cost us 6 points over the last two games ffs

4 points actually!

Paul may be a good bloke but he's not doing it for us. Played 13, 7 points out of 30 tells it as it is.

It's fine margins again. Should have won at Carlisle and had 2 great opportunities to pick up wins against Colchester and Tranmere. 1 late goal conceded and 2 good chances missed and what could have been 9 points is 3.

I doubt Barrow are playing any better than we are but are getting those crucial goals at the right time.

We now need to turn these tight games into wins as Stevenage did. I think Hurst has done as good as anyone could have expected given what he walked into. I'm not his biggest fan but I think some of the stuff posted about him tonight is out of order.

We looked a team tonight. Not a great team but a team nonetheless.
