Oldham Athletic v Tranmere Rovers Match Discussion Thread
By Total Tranmere
January 20 2010
Throughout the season we provide you with a platform to discuss each and every Rovers match whether it be the build-up to kick-off or post match analysis so here we bring you the Match Discussion Thread for Wednesday evening's re-arranged Coca-Cola League One match away at Oldham Athletic in what is a vital six-pointer....
Wednesday 20th January - Coca Cola League One
Oldham A v Tranmere R
Kick-Off 7.45pm at Boundary Park
For those fans who can't make some of the Rovers games this season, particularly the high number of costly and time consuming southern away games, we at Total Tranmere will be providing a Match Discussion Thread on the Site for every Rovers game.
The thread will allow you to discuss everything from the pre-match build up and starting line-up to the game it as it progresses and the post-match anaylsis.
Where possible, Total Tranmere staff will post up the starting line-up and substitutes on the thread as soon as it is made known at the game.
Tranmere of course travel to Oldham Athletic tonight in Coca-Cola League One to play an all-important match which was originally scheduled for Boxing day but was postponed due to heavy snow, so if you're not going to the game why not join in the banter right here while the game is going on.
Maybe if you have a friend or family member texting you from the game you can post their views here for others to see as the game progresses.
You could also use this thread to discuss other interesting scores throughout the league as well as discussing this game afterwards if you have been along to the game.
What you discuss below is up to you but hopefully it can all be focused on one thread to make it easier for everyone to use.

..we need one if not two strikers who are capable of scoring or this mess just carries on and on.
I'm delighted with a point and disgusted by the boos that met the final whistle after a decent point although no-one can really argue that it was a poor game all the way through between two sides that look likely to be down there till the very end.
Thought Les could have made a sub to change things up. Would have been nice to see Mahon and Shuker on at some point, but he didn't want to take the gamble.
Will take a point for sure though. Can't complain about a clean sheet on the road
That begs the question as to why Fraughan wasn't included?
Our team just seems to be full of workers, especially in midfield. Players like Edds will give 100% but lack any quality going forward. Goals are going to be a major issue for us to stay up, we badly need an attack minded mifielder and a striker.
i personally think with all our blocks and clearances we were very lucky to get the draw.. the performance wasn't good enough and we never won one second ball all night, Oldham won every header an looked hungrier.. performance now being irrelevant the result was decent. Had we been the home team id be in tears now so surely Oldham will feel far worse off than us today. Alot rides on Yoevil now though. point is an excellent point if we can win on tues.
Zoom was immense getting forward 1st half and Logan 2nd half too. well in to the back 4 (5) who only a few months ago were the worst in the country. hopefully we can push Taylor up the pitch an lose mclaren now we have Mcready added to the gang.
I know we keep going on about it, but Daniels looks terrified every time he has to kick the ball. Hope he keeps working hard at in in training.
Goodison played another blinder and Zoum is a great addition to the squad.
We really lacked creativity, pace and spark up front though. Shuker really needs to be given a run in the team again.
