      Tranmere Rovers
      Apr 19, 2009 12:21:42 pm
      Well, a 3-1 defeat to Leeds yesterday, but Tranmere still in a decent position to reach the play-offs. In 6th place with two games left. But Scunthorpe have two games in hand which, with wins, would take them above Rovers. And Tranmere's last league game is? Yep, Scunthorpe away (preceded by Yeovil at home - who could still go down). Should be an interesting end to the season. I'd like to see them in the play-offs!

      COME ON ROVERS!!

      Aren't their fans just as bitter as Everton's?

      I didn't know they had any fans! ;) But the Aldo link always makes me look for their results.

      I used to have a season ticket when I was about 14.  Used to love going down to Tranmere with the lads for a good day out.

      But when it comes down to bitterness, you can't get any worse than a full blooded Tranmere fan.  They could try and brag for hours, don't know why they brag though!  :D

      I can still see them making the play-offs though.  But I don't hold out much hope if they get through to the Championship, they've got no money, and I can't see that slag Lorraine Rogers opening her purse from all the gold digging she's done in the years.

      They need financial backing otherwise they may as well forget it.

      I used to go back in the 70's when Liverpool played away. Crowd 6,000. Nearly 40 years later crowd 6,000. You cant produce a championship team with gates like that. I think they cant afford to go up.

      As i live not far from T.r.f.c i used to go on fridays when i was a kid with me mates and more often than not ended up bunking out!! Only time ive been back in there is when we play , and yes thats coz of their bitter fans. Id still like to see the team do well though, and they gave me a good laugh when they battered the bitters 3-0 at Goodison in 2001 ;D

      So, Tranmere are 7th and Scunthorpe are 6th. Scunthorpe play Cheltenham at home and they're 2nd to bottom. Tranmere play Yeovil at home and they're 17th. So, odds are that both will win. The last game of the season is Scunthorpe vs. Tranmere. Should be a, erm, thrilling climax. *cough* :)

      Half-Time. 1-0 to Tranmere. A win and they're in the playoffs. Looking good so far!

      Think there are better matches to watch then these!

      Just simply dont understand why people like watching the lower league teams, poor quality I reckon.

      Anyone enlighten me why?

      Yeah just heard it on Radio City. Last minute goal wasn't it? Apparently Scunthorpe kept knocking on the door though.

      Ah well.

      They're over the water mate, so a few Liverpool fans like to look out for them.

      EDIT: over the water means other side of the River Mersey

      Because they're city rivals. And one horrible state of a club.
