You all do realise this is Tranmere Rovers we're talking about. Losing 4-0 to Boreham Wood I can understand people's frustration but we lost 4-0 to a big ex-league club. As Jay has put on Twitter, goals change games. We had 2 brilliant opportunities to get us back in game. Believe me today's performance was much better than Tuesday. I'm starting to think that some people just expect us to walk into the play offs just because of the run we'd be on. Get real, we're not there. I've said this from day one. Get 50 points and stay in the league first. Some of you (not all of you) really need a reality check.

A real shit week on the back of a brilliant season so far. I think everyone's minds are on stadium MK. In my view at the start of the season we were a mid table team and we are still a mid table team. It's so so tough to be at our best twice a week all season at this level. Now roll on MK and COYS. 👍 I don't think it is anything to do with the upcoming match against the franchise team. I think the signs that things are not right have been there for a while. I wasn't at the game but assume our midfield was non-existent again and Worgs spent the whole game constantly hoofing long aimless balls, nearly always to his left, into the other end of the pitch to no effect?

Not the reason for the defeats. We miss Alex Wynter very very badly. We are nowhere near good enough. The only good thing is those starry eyed stats obsessed posts about what if we make the play-offs will cease. Well, if you don't like the "starry eyed stats", you're going to like these even less: Last season we won at Torquay and went 11th - our highest position of the season. But, following that game, we started a disastrous run of form, starting with being knocked out of the KSC by Bromley, and then shipping 4 goals at home to Solihull, and losing 3-0 away in both the next two games. We won only once in the next 14 league games. This season we won at Torquay and went 5th - our highest position of the season. But, following that game, we have drawn at home to the bottom team, and lost 4-0 in the next two games...

We need to play Torquay in the last game of the season as I agree with the previous post !. Jay mentioned that he has a couple of loan players up his sleeve , as it stand and our recent form we could do with them for next week in the FA Cup just to get us through and a bumper tie against a big team to help our owners with the forthcoming ground upgrading !. It may be said that we have ridden our luck in this year topsy-turvy league as the results from everyone else seem to prove , but let's not undo the good results gained so far !. We can redress the situation and need to have a positive attitude as us fans to transmit it to the players on the field. No need to panic yet Mr. Mannering !!. COYS

Wouldn’t comment on the performance without being there! Assume makes an ‘ass out of u and me’ You can 'assume' what you like about the midfield being non-existent, but according to Jay Saunders we were not good enough at the back or the front. in other words we are shipping goals far too easily and once again making goal scoring look like an extremely difficult trick to master. obviously, good players have not become bad players overnight, with the real problem being a mix of injuries, suspensions and form, which have affected the whole pattern and performance of the team. Seth suspended now, serious doubts about Hare, Wynter and Muldoon and still both Hines and Loza seem some way from fully match fit sounds like we may be hearing about one or two loan signings over the course of the next few days

COYS Difficult to find loan players who aren't cup tied, or their clubs don't want them cup tied Jay may well bring in a couple of loanees this week but we'll be lucky if they are eligible to play against MK Dons

How many more goals does Worgan have to ship for him to be dropped? Theres 10 players in front of him as well it could have been a lot more if not for him. Perhaps you were not there to see it ?

This is getting embarrassing. The squad needs a freshen up especially in midfield. I bet we were just playing long ball all game again. you were not there then ?

It's not all bad...
Gillingham drew and are in the relegation zone.
Both Wrexham and Dover lost - and Macclesfield drew.
We are technically 7th, as we're bound to win our game in hand...
We are still in both the FA Cup and the Trophy (and the KSC, for that matter).
We've only lost 4-0 twice.
Our home form isn't worse than our away form.
We're not Leyton Orient.
We're not named after a railway station.
We don't have to mow our pitch.
Or feed it.
Or water it...
