    Common sense at last, however he’s a step up from Wright on that performance. We wouldn’t get the same mobility up front if Cook had played …..Sorry folks .

    The only squid was Smith …awful.

    He could have stopped the poor fouls (8?) on Kavanagh . If he’d have booked the first two. Otherwise Smallwoods wasn’t a booking , he got the ball then collided with their msn. The two gat should have got booked by following through on keeper Walker in the first half.

    I think he was just off but the camera angle wasn’t helpful.

    If he had 8 legs he might have scored, or is that just an octopus,

    Not really-very empty around me in upper kop. Most went to North Parade to have a few beers.

    Make no mistake Rupps open Letter isn't fooling anyone.

    As an aside there was a remarkable similarity between this match and forest green.

    Forest Green scored with a header after 40odd seconds. Tranmere had almost the exact same corner and the lad headed wide.

    Our defence hasn't been the strongest in the last 5 or 6 games. We seem to have loads of men in the box but the oppo always seem to win a header. Lucketti needs to get them working harder on the training ground.

    I dropped out of things this week Tony but was going to post midweek , but thought meh!

    We will never have a dynamic forward line and do well with a largely static centre forward . We have to face facts. Good header of the ball but technically way off pace. Yes there will be those that don’t agree but hey…defences are absolutely terrified of technical pace no matter what league a club is in. . Oddly today showed it to a T ( Bar Smith) . As long as Cookie plays from the get go then we won’t progress. I’d like to see him as a threat later in the game tbh.

    I can hear the toys hitting the floor as I type but it has to be said.

    He is in the right place to miss if you get my meaning . All season we see balls fly across the box or drop in the 6 yard box and no one is near it. Yet Smith is and will keep getting in the positions. Yes the goals haven’t flowed but like others have said I think we have a player there.
