Twisting My Mellon Man

Tranmere Rovers hosted Manchester Utd at Prenton Park in FA Cup 4th Round

Micky's Rovers hosted Ole's Red Devils to a sold out crowd at the Prenton Swamp.  

Following the 3rd round comeback and heroics to reach the 4th round, Tranmere were soundly beaten by a strong Utd team. First half finished 5-0. Rovers limited the visitors to a single goal after the break and Morgan, Corey and party like a Rushian all came close to levelling the final 45 during which the tequila poured from the Kop.

POTM:  Jake Caprice for showing Jesse Lingard what real pace is.πŸƒπŸ’πŸ‡

New bobble hat got an outing today along with JK statue badge.

Love the murals.  Thanks to Paul Curtis and the Tranmere Trust. 

Up the mud covered cup hero whites.
P.S. I'd get that kit in the Vanish whitener sharpish if I was you.🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

Time to leave the Swamp/Sand pit.  See you at Wycombe and hope it's a bit warmer this time.

Love Tranmerekat 🐾

The Langoustine and Winding Road



Tranmere away to Southend United at Roots Hall in League 1 

The Rovers vs The Shrimpers.
Tranmere spent 90 minutes passing the ball to Southend who used it to try and hit a barn door but missing.

The game never got going and finished 0-0. It seems wearing white is now a bookable offence.  Maybe someone got a new whistle for Christmas.

MOTM Sammy the Shrimp🦐, only one to put the ball in the net.  Surprised he wasn't booked for handball. Do shimps have hands, is claw ball an offence?

Tried out my new Prenton Park South badge today.  Won't get there this year unless we make the FA Cup final.

Time for a Gamma Ray or 2.

Love from Essex
See you at Wycombe

Love Tranmerekat 🐾

Tiny VARncer

Tranmere Rovers FC away to Watford FC at Vicarage Road  in the FA Cup 3rd round

My third premier league ground to see the Rover vs the Hornets. 

Rovers were 3 down after 35 minutes.  That scoreline remained despite the Hornets falling over and rolling around a lot.  All change when Connor's disallowed goal was re-instated by VAR, the greek god of armpits. Manny made it 3-2.  Mullin equalised from the penalty spot after VAR overuled the ref for a foul on Corey.  The sting in the tail was one of the hornets seeing red. 

The replay will be at Prenton Swamp in about 10 days.

POTM:  Paul Mullin for standing calmly with the ball waiting to take the pen with chaos whirling all around him.  Was never going to miss.  

Today I am supporting Every Mind Matters.

See you at Sarfend on Saturday. 

Love Tranmerekat 🐾

Rocky Bear Boa

Bognor Regis Town FC play host to Worthing FC in the Isthmian Premier League 

The Rocks Vs the Rebels in the South Coast Derby at the Nyecamp stadium.   An end to end New Years Day game finished 0-3.  Worthing scoring 3 with no reply against Bognor for the 2nd time this season.  

A good crowd and great atmosphere. Got to meet a lady that is a Bognor fan from Prenton.  Fantastic hot chocolate too from Doug's Tuck Shop.  Got to meet Rocky Bear.

I'd rather be a Rover than a Rebel or a Rock.

First time out in the boss new trainees I got for Christmas.

See you at Watford 
Love
