Hartlepool Utd v Tranmere Rovers Match Discussion
By Deadly Submarine
October 24 2011
If you can't make Tranmere's game away at Hartlepool United on Tuesday 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 travel to Hartlepool United on Tuesday evening 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!

Good game, good chance to pick up three points and continue our good form against a side who before Saturday had lost three in a row. Really hope we take the game to them and get the large crowd on their backs.

I think it's winnable. I just hope Tranmere can overcome their past Tuesday night form, to bag 3 in a row.

We need to overcome our Hartlepool form as well to be fair!

Like that Friday 0-0 game about 18 months ago, when Moore admitted he should have scored.
Hartlepool, on reflection do seem like a bit of a bogey side.

How much does Robbo want his place back? He's only been on 5 minutes and they can't get the ball off him.

When you look at the league table tonight and look at the teams below us who probably have double the budget we have (although preston's and MK Dons is probably 3 or 4 times bigger!!), it's absolutely staggering that were are where we are.
I know it's very early to get excited but seriously, Les is working absolute miracles here. 6th in the table, the lowest goals against at home, joint lowest goals against in the league and were missing probably 3 of our better players, it's absolutely amazing.
If we can get a good result at Scunthorpe, people are gonna have to start sitting up and taking notice of us and that goes for you Maniche and your idiots at the BBC!!!!!
Well played boys, keep it up!!!

How do you pick a man of the match out of that? Welsh probably edges it but everyone put in a full shift. Including the subs. I think we'll do Scunny on Saturday then Les will be a shoe in for Manager of the Month.

I would assume Lucas Akins with his two goals may be a candidate.

The football league show did actually give us a well done on Saturday so that's a bonus, with us now unbeaten in six and only conceding 2 maybe that bald headed guy will pay les a visit

From what I could tell the two main candidates for the MOM were Akins and Fon Williams.
Good to hear Robbo was being hungry for his return when given a little run out. There could have been evidence of him looking rusty and off key a bit, but it sounds like he started where he left off, looking solid and at times fairly imperious.
Then I ate his Liver.......... with some baked beans and a can of coke.

Magnificent second half performance earned us a comfortable and well deserved victory.
First half was sloppy, lackluster and lethargic. We let them have too much of the ball, gave them time and space to pass it around and couldn't pass it ourselves.
Second half we got ourselves an early goal and our confidence just soared. We played brilliantly and passed it around so well, creating chance after chance after chance.
Akins' goals were, in a sense, easy for him, but it was great to see him in the position to take them. We haven't been doing enough gambling on balls in the box and he benefited from it twice tonight with two good goals.
Disappointed that the scoreline wasn't more and Weir and McGurk both had great chances to score but failed to hit the target from close range.
The defence was tight, solid and tidy leaving Fon Williams with very little to do whilst it was magnificent to see the return of Robinson who looked fit and hungry when he came on.
Tiryaki didn't have too much of an impact on the game but when he got involved more second half he looked good whilst Akins and McGurk were constant threats in the second period.
Absolutely delighted with a win that is our third already away from home in the league and lifts us up to sixth! Superb stuff. Keep it up lads.

Just watched the extended highlights of the match on the Tranmere player. Looked like we could have had more goals and that the defence worked tirelessly for the clean sheet. The weather, at times, looked terrible too. Well done to Les, the management team and the players for getting us in to the position we're now in. To be back in the play-off zone with 3 of our best players out and only one loan signing is a brilliant acheivement.
I've not seen any mention of Lucas Akins being our joint top scorer after his brace (along with Ash and Robbie Weir) I made a joke about him probably missing an open goal in the re-arranged Accrington game if given the opportunity. I'm very happy to eat my words on that one! He's already scored more than he did last season and if he continues like this might end up our top scorer for the whole season.

For the first time ever I've looked at another football network site to get the Hartlepool reaction to the game. In a very fair review of the match by 'The box of Kippers' I absolutely loved the headline 'Pools Nowt Tranmere two'. If we get our 9th clean sheet against Scunthorpe on Saturday I'm stealing that one!
I noticed that there's no Bournemouth site. Is that why bmb appears to have dissapeared?
Also ecstatic that the 3 wins in a row hoodoo is no more. Woohoo!

What a great and unexpected win that was from the lads. Bit late in my praise but I was delighted on tuesday night. You have to give massive credit to Les and the players. Especialy the defence.
It would be brilliant if we can carry this on at Scunthorpe on Saturday.

.. Yes sorry Matthew. Really liked your article on Jose Baxter by the way.
Looking at the other sites was eye opening. Most of them have tumble weed blowing through them compared to Total Tranmere!
