Tranmere Rovers Vs Wycombe Wanderers Match Discussion
By Mikey
September 16 2011
If you can't make Tranmere's game at home to Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday afternoon, why not join in the banter right here with other Rovers fans who are unable to attend......
For those fans who can't make some of the Rovers games this season, particularly the more 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 analysis.
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 as well as a half-time report on how the game is going for the benefit of those who are unable to make it.
Tranmere of course host Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday afternoon in NPower League One 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.
Admin staff will try and add the team and updates on the game on this thread where possible whilst there will also be our usual update service from our Twitter feed @totaltranmere so if you are not already following us it may be worth doing so!

2-0 to Tranmere. Wycombe are not scoring too many and I don't think they'll be as lucky as last time. 100% shots on target going in; not again surely.
To be honest Tranemre are ready to give someone 3 or 4 goals against, so maybe Wycombe will lose 3-0 or 4-1.
Then I ate his Liver.......... with some baked beans and a can of coke.

Just got back and I think the main thing we can take from that is the 3 points. We didn't play great, it was more of a grind to be honest, both the goals coming from set pieces probably sums the game up.
Really bad luck with the Donaldson injury, he started well I thought, was willing to run at players but looks like a hamstring injury, joke!
Positives I felt Raven and Enoch played well, Ash got better as the game went on, and AKins had a good second half. Weir was absolutely atrocious. Don't think he made one pass, and had a nightmare. Joss came on then off because he was a red waiting to happen.
All in all the result was the main thing. They were really bad and we will need to up it against better opposition. Still think scoring wise we will struggle, Muzza was poor when he came on and doesn't strike me as the type who will score. 3 points is 3 points though.

I agree, a win is a win but I have to say that was like watching paint dry. No better than the Yeovil game, we just happened to take a a couple of chances. Without Robinson we have resorted to the "hoofball"of last season. But of course, Les will say this is the only way we can play. Attendances don't lie - 4300 today and it was similar on Tuesday. People are voting with their feet. I don't expect us to play like Brazil but it would be nice if, just occasionally, we considered a short pass to another white shirt. No doubt, I will now be accused of being negative for daring to say anything against Les. I have nothing against him but I have yet to meet anyone who approves of this awful style of football he has us playing.

Getting 3 points today was definitely crucial in view of the last 4 games so as such we obtained our main objective.It wasn't pretty but we lost games like that last season at home. Wycombe were so toothless up front it was unbelieveable -I think it's a major concern the number of free kicks we give away in our own half-a better team would have punished that today.
Donaldson started very promisingly and it was a great shame for him when he got injured at the end of an excellent run with the ball.
I was shocked when the sponsors named Enoch MOM-it was good to see him get off the mark but he was often left on his own up front and found it hard going. Ash had a much improved game and his goal was expertly taken-why don't the players position themselves more often for set pieces like they did for that corner[ie run quickly at the ball as it's coming in and,when you make contact,put more power on the contact]
I also thought that Welsh and Raven played well and that Weir was nowhere near as bad as Ricci states. McGurk in my opinion was very disappointing today.
There is obviously a problem between Parry and Labadie-dirty looks and lack of communication between the two said all when the substitution was made which was followed very quickly by Labadie's exit down the tunnel.

I think the main object set by les for todays game was to try and grind out a win and that was achieved by a game between two poor sides.
You could see that while Wycombe had a much better touch on the ball than Rovers one could see from their finishing why they had gone four matches beforehand without scoring.
What I cannot understand however is why when we are one goal up at home, does Les send Labadie on to replace Donaldson and leave Muzzy who when he came on against Carlise, showed some good touches and unsettled their defence sat on the bench until the final 8 Minutes.
Like Barn Door has already mentioned regarding the last two
home matches attendances. If we continue to dish up more of what we have witnessed today we could be looking at lower ones.

we were average they were poor we scored from set pieces but the performance was nothing to shout about neither keeper had much to do.
An important win after we started to slide and with a hard game at preston next week pity about donaldson getting injured as he started quite brightly.

3 points so onwards and upwards. hopefully a good replacement for Donaldson comes in and perhaps a kickstart in the level of performances.
I wonder if Devaney will be back for next time?

Goodison is apparently having a scan on his stomach next week and,if needs be,we will be getting a centre half on loan.

goodie will be in the team with a hearnier. he likes plaing im comfortable when he plays he cant leave because he wouldnt pass a medical anywere else so he would play for pennies next year so even if he has a scan he wont be sitting out.
ash i will be one to agree i have criticesed the lad but today he was my MOM she has really put his head into the game and thats nice to see i know he is a midfielder by trade but was very pleased with him todoy he won everything in the air
wasnt a great game but at the same time we never looked like losing.
but on a sad note for yesterday its off topic cardiff let me down for 250 quid

Quote:Les quoted in a press release that he hoped crowds would increase in line with Prenton Park becoming a fortress again and home wins and results continued with performances on the field to match so word of mouth and press reports may get the floaters back into Prenton Park ok we won yesterday but we were to say at least poor the only saving grace was that they(Wycombe) were p*ss poor if we had played like that against a good team we would have been blown off the Park.Barn Door

As for Labadie Les had to pull him off as the way it was going Joss would have been yellow carded
for a second time and this would have led to a red
so I think Les was right to do this,as for our tactics perhaps Tiryaki should have been included in the action perhaps after Ash`s goal we should being at home beat teams like Wycombe well if any game on paper before kick off particularly with Wycombe form over the last few weeks this game was the game for a good win but no we shot our selves in the foot again, oh well three points is three points but it was not entertaining.Re: Tranmere Rovers Vs Wycombe Wanderers Match Discussion

Gates................. we made a great start to the season ! and then had a home game with international coming up ! no prem games no l'ppool or e'ton games ! and the gate was still poor, the Wirral Public just wont get behind their tem ! shocking, that being said I've mentioned b4 how the population has dropped and age group and ethnicity changed 1 so we're still not doin too bad

The supporters need convincing about the quality of football on view and not just over a couple of games.Population,age group and ethnicity are minor factors,times are hard and people are far more careful how they spend what little cash they've got.They want value for money.

Probably about £90-100 minimum including travel and refreshments.

Surely travel from London will cost more than that when added to a match ticket cost:p

I had a chat with some Orient fans[on their way to Blackburn for Carling Cup]who I met on a train today-told them they'd be okay because there's worse teams in the league than them and that THE worst team must be the one we beat last Saturday who would still not have scored even if we'd have been still playing now.They asked who that was-I said Wycombe-their reply ''they beat us 3-1''
