my heart say we will win but my head says we will more than likely draw 0-0 or lose 1-0 , same old story same old tactics same old les ,

I'd like to see the players reaction to the Oldham game and the chatter on here (I'm presumiung many of them look on here - including Les (Lovinglesiseasycosheswonderful)) so they'll show us what they're made of and win the Chesterfield game and draw the next one.....


Fingers crossed 'eh?

1 1

1 - 2 great win for the Rovers

It`s good to know that Fon Williams thinks the defence is back up to it`s full strength and we will be hard to beat be like saying the Titanic was hard to sink from one of the lifeboats..But apart from that some how I think we may pull off a draw today if not a win.

we can hope that at last we pull off a win, 1-0 will do for me ,lets hope that the drubbing they got in midweek has shatterd them, let us hope that we concentrate for the whole 90 mins ,but most of all after the run les has got us on let us pray ,and if we get done again today its byeeee byeeee les

think we will win 2 1 today

Our record against teams at the bottom is terrible,apart from the 3-0 win at stockport we tend to lose and sometimes heavily.We are also on our worst run of form (as in wins in games) 1 in 19 since 1978-79 season where we went 1 in 24.Some terrible results I remember against rock bottom sides are:
26.1.93 Notts Co 5-1 (we were actually top when this happened)
05.10.02 Mansfield Town 6-1 (we were winning 1-0 at half time)
16.5.01
Queen's Park Rangers 2-0
Crewe 4-3
Cheltenham 1-0
0-3 Wycombe
0-2 swindon
Also recently 1-2 Wycombe.There are others I have probably erased from my memory
We really really can't afford to lose this game..

It`s not over yet but were down to 19th .

Scunthorpe 4(FOUR) up good job were not playing them four goals to us would be like half a season

Chesterfield 1-0 up sh**.

Deja Vous?

here we go again 1-0 down. and no stricker left to bring on!!!

Hey gone back up to eighteenth

We go 1-0 down and we take a striker (playing on the wing!) off and replace him with a left back.

Can I apply for the managers job? I could pick a better lineup from our squad and I'll do it for £250 a week!

Gary Jones missed a penalty for Rochdale that would have made it more interesting if that had gone in.

Back down to 19th Yeovil just taken lead

Yeovil just nicked a winner it seems! Down to 19th!

you've got the job you start on tues

1 win in 20 enough said.

Grrr Walsall just nicked a point too. 1 point of the drop zone now!

Do the decent thing now Les please! Admit that you were not up to the task of management and go quietly! You have been a great servant of Tranmere Rovers!

i think now even the hardend les fans must agree the he must go now and i mean now tonight ,he is a bloody joke , he should never have got the job in the first place ,he is totaly out of his depth ,and if not sacked today he will take us down and down till we are non league , byeee byeee les go now

Last straw for Les i'd say, I like the man, hes loves the club, but he should stick to what he knows best, and thats a sponge and bucket. Sorry Les but give us a chance to stay up, really can't be doing with League 2 next year! Time to go

Surely, i hope and pray thats enough. This is a joke, please please please make the announcment that he has gone. If the man has any dignity he will walk!!!!

just go now les your not upto the job, 1 point off the bottom 4 now down to 19th.

please les go now for the love of rovers just go tonight ,give us a small chance if you stay we drop for sure if you goi we have a small chance ,so please les just go and go now

C'mon Les, time to clear your desk. I just can't back you anymore. I was prepared to give you the benefit of the doubt 'til the end of the season but enough is enough.....

You've been a wonderful servant to Tranmere, but you've taken on a bigger job than you can handle. No-one is bigger than the club and now is time to walk.

For the greater good, just please quit.

If Les has any shred of dignity and integrity he will announce his resignation immediately! A great club man and we thankyou for all your efforts but a return to physiotherapy beckons!

thats it les you are bringing us all to tears watching your tactics byeee byeeee please go now

Having defended Les to the hilt even i am finding it hard now. if the players couldnt do it today for him it must be the last straw for him. If no one ready to replace him then Shaun has to take the job until another manager throws his hat in to the equation. Sorry Les was hoping you could have turned it round but looks like that hope has gone

Another defeat to a rock bottom team added to the list.the last 2 seasons I was confident of staying up but sadly not this time

Enough is enough Les time to call it a day! Just remember that you didn't want the job in the first place! Going now will give the new boss a chance of keeping us up! If you love the club Les please clear your desk asap!

If results go the wrong way on Tuesday we will be in the bottom four and for results to go that way it will not take much looking at Tuesday fixtures the biggest problem starts with us
first can we score a goal and if we did can we keep any lead
we may have going on the past twenty games it does not look good and with Notts County being in the top six they will be up for it.
No doubt Les will play one up front and try to hold on to the one point it`s sadwhat`s happening to our club it may be some of our players are not good enough but on the whole I think they are good enough to stay up but some were the tactics that have been used for the last twenty games have been totally wrong things should have changed ten games ago and if one of those changes was a change of manager it should have happened then but it may well be to late now those teams around us and below us have won games and in some cases have now passed us in the league those below us are now getting points on board were we are not I have supported Tranmere for
fifty eight years and going on passed records were we have had a run like we are on now history is not on our side it will take a massive turn of form and lady luck to change our fortune in the coming weeks it will be interesting to see what Les has to say and who`s fault was it today.

Time to bring the curtain down on Les Parry's tenure as Tranmere manager! One win in 20 matches tells us he is simply not up to the job of managing our great club! We are a laughing stock amongst other league clubs! our patience has well and truely run out Les! Go quickly and quietly!

It's obvious as to whose fault it was.
If Yeovil and Scunthorpe hadn't got lucky wins, we'd still be in 17th place.

The next Les quote

"We were unlucky today, but if Ronnie Moore he hadn't have been ridiculously sacked then i'm sure we'd have picked up three points today"

maybe les will blame the kit man this week he must be the only one left who he hasnt blames ,he used the wrong soap powder to wash the kit . yes you have got to laugh but its a true fact he blames everyone but himself and his cluless tactics,so comon les who is it this time ,or are you gonna shock us all and at last admit its your fault we are in this mess and you are totaly out of your depth your not a manager ,your were a funny man as a spongman but your now a joke as a manager ,please go les and go before tuesday as i fear for what you will hear from the fans , i would say 85% now want you gone and i fear you will get both barrels then so go les and save your self from total humiliation from the fans

Before kickoff a poster on The Cowswheds who's supplied some accurate info in the past claimed the decision to dispense with him had already been taken regardless of todays result.

I hope his source is reliable.

we can only hope , but even if it were not true even les mustnow face facts he is not the man for the job and go ,even johnson cant keep faith with him now or does he want to see crowds at a all time low ,i dont think so he is a money man and if les stays fans will dissapear and to johnson thats money ,so lets hope the club now sees sence and sacks les tonight ,

I belieben fowler had been touted as les,s replacement

Up till now Blackpool seems the next stop for Fowler.

Fowler stalling on signing for blackpool heard rumours he,s gunna bcome player coach til end OF season but just rumours

no chance of fowler coming here.

Woeful performance today. It was like we only had 8 men on the pitch - the entire midfield was AWOL for most the of the game. Today plumbed new depths in terms of the striker being isolated. Should have been a heavier defeat but Chesterfield couldn't shoot to save their lives.
Most fans well behind the team until the goal. Parry Out chants were being drowned out by more positive chants but once we scored it was clear we weren't going to come back.
The were filming for that league show on BBC North West and quite a few fans were interviewed. It will be interesting to see how they spin it. Unfortunately a few fans got over excited and the police came in, which will probably look worse on TV than it really was.
Only silver lining was that the drive over and back was nice.

A shocking depressing woeful performance-two dreadful teams. Goodison,Fon Williams excepted-the rest were pretty abysmal.

With Robin van Persie J Beckford W Rooney and Robbie Fowler all signing in time for the Notts County game this could be good for our fire power only trouble is Les is going to play all four in back the four replacing Goodison Taylor Holmes and Buchanan because he does not want to replace his plan of attack with players that may have a slim chance of scoring and upset his run of results.
It`s a shame that some fans have lost faith in Les and comments based on sarcasm and laughter is an outlet for our feelings I have not been an advocate to get rid of Les in a way have stood by him over the past months but backing of him started to slip away around about when then run of games got to one win in twelve games now that figure has reached 1 in 20 it can not be all down to the quality of players but the way those players have been deployed and the tactics that Les used.
We all know what a loyal servant Les has been to Tranmere but
the old maxim comes into play no one person be that a player
or manager is bigger than the club if it is possible for Peter Johnson to make that move and replace Les it has to be now while there is enough games left to turn it around or at least for Les to change tack in his game plan and blow caution to the wind and attack in every game from now till the end of season and not by using one loan front man but I think Les has used his nine(or should that read twenty) lives
up and it could be to late to change his way of doing things he may be set in his outlook and can not change it.But we need some thing to save our club slipping into the bottom tier of league football,back to the basement were Peter Johnson and John King took that ride almost to the moon.
It may be a sad day on May 5th unless things change.

Les just bin sacked

It's actually one win in twenty as of today!!!

You can't tell me that's acceptable at any level of professional football?

Nice bloke or not, anyone else would've been sacked long before now.

I wish him well though.

made a noite after 5 minutes our fans were booing our team after 8 minutes singing for 4 4 2 and after just 14 minuter the parry out singing started, some of the antics and behaviour of some of the fand today was poor to say the least ! excellent stewards and police there ! at another ground a lot would have been out ! some unable to climb the stairs !
and another point IF we were to end up on the bottom of the pile ! could we pack as many 'supporters' in as thay did today ?

Not where I was sitting they weren't.Where were you sitting?

Peter Johnson so that`s the end of the matter.

There will be a few on here who still want him to stay depsite of everything. But clearly he must go.

He has to go . Even if by some miracle he keeps his job till end of season and keep us up. He still should go he will never take the team forward.

I did ! now dreading the shambles that may follow !

It cant be worse than the shambles of 1 win in 20 games and slipping closer & closer to the bottom 4

Today was a total shambles even by the worst Tranmere standards. My guess is that we will both be playing in Division 2 next season.Even if a new man takes over,he will have a massive job to reverse our catastrophic plunge.

Beaten by a much better team - there stadium is fantastic and they have a big support base bigger club than us

Chesterfield will stay up and we will go down

The last thing we were was beaten by a better team. 0 0 was a fair reflection of the game but they took their only clear cut chance of the game whilst we barely had any.

so we barely created a chance against the bottom team, i think that says it all

Both teams were woeful-they looked as if they might occasionally score,we didn't.The whole match was totally depressing.

Don't be blaming the 2 kitmen one of them good friend of mine but on another note apart from goodie robbo and fons they were all awful mcqurk being the worst in my opinion I have defended les a lot and in past couple off weeks said he does need to go but I know think who is going to come in
