Tranmere Rovers v Shrewsbury Town Match Discussion
By Deadly Submarine
April 11 2014
If you can't make Tranmere's vital game at home to Shrewsbury Town on Saturday afternoon, why not join in the banter right here with other Rovers fans who are unable to attend...
Following football even at League One level is pretty expensive these days and no matter how much you love the Rovers, it will sometimes be difficult to make the games in person whether it be the lengthy away trips, or for exiles living elsewhere in the UK or abroad, the home games too. As a result, for those fans who can't make some of the Rovers games this season, we at Total Tranmere will be providing this match discussion thread for you to discuss developments with the game.

Tranmere of course, host Shrewsbury Town a vital game on Saturday afternoon in Sky Bet 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? 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 to watch the game live. 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.

Our home has caused the problem in getting results, can we win two games back to back?
The future starts now!!
SWA
2-0.
Every ball is a white ball............TRFC
Then I ate his Liver.......... with some baked beans and a can of coke.
When Brown was brought on for Koumas, my initial reaction was why has he not brought Rowe on. I actually said to the person next to me ''what the hell's he brought him on for.'' What do I know!!!

Apart from his goal,he looked much better than the other times I've seen him.
Power was clearly our best player today but I thought the battle between Ridehalgh and their little winger Taylor[number 11] was fascinating/tremendous particularly in the first half. The latter was a real pain in the butt to our defence but Liam coped really well with him. If Taylor is out of contract, we stay up and they go down, he's certainly a player I'd look at signing at the end of the season.
It was great to see Goody up as high as the rest of our bench celebrating our winner only minutes after he'd gone off injured. Hope he's not too badly hurt-Arthurworrey did well when he came on as sub.
Shrewsbury got great back up from their fans who sang much louder and longer than ours throughout.
Whoever decided to play ''You'll Never Walk Alone'' just before the minutes silence made an excellent decision-totally right in the circumstances and very moving.
Finally,very best wishes for a speedy recovery to Peter Johnson who apparently had a bad fall yesterday and whose face looked a bit of a mess as a result.

Concerning the amount of space we gave them, for me playing 442 with 2 players injured in the middle was always going to be a big ask!
Thought there should have been a change to tighten up before they got their goal but credit to J Mc for bringing brown on later on which won us the game.
Still don't believe cassidy should be starting, he works hard can't know him for effort but for me Lowe and Akpro with Brown would be the way to go, maybe even as 3 with power/jenno and koumas to tighten up against the better sides.
Bench looked a little threadbare too in terms of game changers....can't help but feel having robbo on there even for the last 10 minutes if you needed a goal would be useful...
Good performances from Max, Akpro, Ash, goodi and Ridehalgh.
We started quite brightly and were denied what looked a blatant penalty for handball but deservedly took the lead and were the better team in the first half. The 2nd half they got on top we couldn't keep the ball in their half and when they scored a draw seemed likely but a good winning goal from Brown gave us the win.
Ridehalgh Power & Taylor were the best players for me & Brown did well when he came on.
