How can we get the Wembley daytrippers into the Hall ?
We have such a huge following for the big occasions, but they rarely seem to visit the hall for your typical home league match ? Any suggestions how we can entice them in, or have we tried and found it's pointless ?- Supa Shrimpa

Ref Watch ...... Swindon H
The referee for tomorrow's match is the very experienced Andy Woolmer from Northampton. This short referee with even shorter hair had the capacity to be slightly officious but he is usually reasonably steady - a safe pair of hands.

Another fictional short story based on fact. Yes we did take 2,000 fans to Gillingham in 1921, yes we did take seven boat loads etc, only the names of the individuals are fictional. Not for everyone I know, but for those that wade through it this story is a tribute to your parents...- DoDTS

Have some respect for Barry Corr
Absolutely disgusted to see some of the comments about Corr following yesterday's performance. Some of our so called "fans" should be ashamed of themselves.

Tranmere have definitely had the better of the matches between the two clubs that have taken place on a fairly regular basis since the abolition of Div 3 North and South.

Ref Watch Cup Refwatch .... Chester H
It's just a few weeks short of 10 years since we last hosted Chester at the Hall; a late, late goal from substitute, Laurie Dudfield was the only score of the match.

From the very gracious Chichester Observer
Nonetheless, the manner of Pompey’s defeat says infinitely more than the 2-0 scoreline at Roots Hall suggests. The Shrimpers were poor, lacking spark and creativity, certainly a shadow of the team which reached the play-offs last term. Andy Awford’s side were worse. Not considerably worse...- jaffa1
