Tranmere Rovers 0 - 1 Oldham Athletic Match Stats


By Deadly Submarine
September 6 2008

A solitary goal from ex Rovers defender Reuben Hazell was enough to secure a win for Oldham although the result is harsh on a Rovers side that will feel they probably deserved at least a draw from the game after a solid first half but disappointing second half display.

6 yellow cards means a fine for us which isn't good.

Yeah I think it was a substantial fine too last time it happened to us if I remember rightly?

Two things, firstly, how can we have had 20% of the possession and they 42%. Who had the rest?

Secondly, nine fouls and six yellow cards just shows how poor the official was. Crossley deserved to be booked for them, Ian Moore should have been sent off for us, whilst Jenno rightly got a yellow, but there were no other cards in my opinion.

Matt, the first tackle of the game by the Oldham player, should of been a booking, because he failed to do so the referee lost control of the game.

We had 58% of the possession.

That's not what the stats say Mikey.

I can't remember the first tackle of the game, I think it might have been on Shuker, but personally I don't think you should be giving bookings as early as the first minute, as you are setting yourself a standard for the rest of the game. If it's unavoidable, then of course it has to be given, but many of the cards given yesterday were avoidable

Is the missing 38% actually Bas Savage on his own? Does his possesion of the ball not go towards Tranmere's percentage?

The first tackle was one from behind, with his feet raised on Bas Savage. If he'd of booked him for that then I'm sure many of the players wouldn't of carried on with the reckless challenges.

That probably deserved a yellow to be fair. Ref was really awful. He should have more control over the players than he did and It resulted in panic yellow cards being shown.
