Time for a rest. Mandy may have just taken his place for a bit.

Oldhaker? New signing?

Think he is Oldakers brother in law Oldhaker

Midfield played with more urgency and positivity today. Good to see.

Yep. Whilst striving not to exaggerate, there were large parts of the game where Dobra actually played deeper than Mandy but both further forrad than Banks. Shades of the Spanish classical formation also with 2 wide men and an intelligent CF. Get Naylor in there battling for 1 place with Banks and it might work well.

Think we played more of a 4-1-4-1 today. Naylor doesn?t need to battle for a place with Banks?. He is 3 or 4 levels better

As good as we were today and you can only beat what's in front of you. Tranmere are a very poor side. I watched them play a couple of weeks ago and my actual thoughts were, we've got an excellent chance of three points here despite our massive injury headache. Hopefully we can start to build some confidence from this showing and build some decent form again. Writing Oldaker off because of one showing against a very poor outfit is just ridiculous to say the least and shows how fickle some football fans are. I mean, many were saying Sheckleford isn't league two standard and needs binning.. he was outstanding today, though the same applies, this is one game against a poor outfit and I'm not pulling anyone down here, just being realistic and I've always been a big Shecks advocate, though let's just see how he and he rest of the team push on from here, before we start writing anyone off because we've had a poor run of form and beating a poor side. I seriously can't get my breath at times 😬

But the opposition didn?t turn up ? Were we that good, if so what happened against Accy. Only asking because I listened on radio.
