    Just said that to my lad about 2 minutes ago and we both agreed. If this club has any shred of ambition get Wellens signed up now before someone else snaps him up.

    " If we play like we did today, we will win more games "


    Hasn’t got the balls to say that they bottled it, and have done last few games to cost us a possible play off position

    They have to be given credit to getting us safe and then getting us near a play off place even with the recent dire performances but anyone who listened to that interview who is not embarrassed for the guy really doesn't understand the game, not one thing he said made sense.

    They did really well early on. Fair play. Last third of season has been poor. I hate to ask for anyone to lose their job, but can’t see them taking us any further. Let them go gracefully back to the youth team.

    I try and have a balanced opinion but that performance tonight was another dire display Tranmere looked average at best, but to then try and tell fans who watch the game we dominated it and created chances was taking the mick, also a very poor reply to why we did not bring Rowe on trying to cover it by saying Cook was doing well (I believe you mentioned the old pro Clarke had the better of the duels) and he said he brought another striker on in Donaldson (91 minutes) was a pathetic reply.
    Sorry mate for me Ryan has to make a big call, he still believes in his judgement when originally giving them the job and extending their contracts, yes to be fair they got us into a position most would never dare say was a possibility, but were unable to kick on, or he believes they are not capable of taking Bradford City up next season because that has to be the goal (even with another transfer window) and relieves them of their position and they return to their previous posts, big call both for the club and Ryan's reputation, of he gets this wrong all the talk counts for nothing.

    Cook was up against two centre backs due to our piss poor tactics, what was he supposed to do. If Peter Clarke is the best in the division then we might as well pack up now.

    Wow! There's a man talking himself out of a job!

    'We want to put in performances that the fans are proud of'. Unfortunately Trueman is out of touch if he believes fans would ever be proud of our recent performances.

    Credit to Jamie however for trying to get behind Trueman's rationale for the performance and his use of the squad. He tried hard but there was little forthcoming.

    He is definitely a good interviewer Jamie, asks the questions fans would want to ask, rather than bland interviews from the Thornton boys in the past.

    Cringeworthy but very instructive. I learned all I need to know about T&S in those nine minutes.

    If the manager has to watch a video afterwards to work out what was going on in the game that might explain a lot.
    I think that's being very kind.

    Probably a reflection of how the team has approached the last few games. We've dodged relegation, job done....apparently.

    My decision as to whether I buy an IFollow pass for this game is simple.
    Play 2 upfront, and have a go at winning the game rather than being cautious and hope to sneak a point.
    T & S need to grow a pair and get at em.

    Changed my mind, City are going to win 4-0, Hornby the inspiration.

    Im not blaming sam for that, was clearly a deflection from Pauldie. Nothing he can do about that. Really unlucky that.

    Not enough up front, a lot of passing about in non dangerous areas. Fairly toothless display

    They played OK, played well is stretching it, you’ve got to face facts, not working the keeper and you get punished.
