Tranmere Rovers faces Boreham Wood FC in the National League Playoff Final at Wembley Stadium

Wemberleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

The Rovers are back at Wembley and are this time up against The Wood in another National League Play-off final.  Prize for the winner is promotion back into the football league.

What a game that was!  Down to ten men when Liam Ridehalgh is sent off for a two footed tackle after just 48 seconds. All 3 subs used in the first half.  Score 1-1 at half time thanks to a goal by Andy Cook on 6 minutes and a Borehamwood equaliser in the 8th minute of first half injury time.  Finished 2-1 to Tranmere with a 80th minute goal by Lord Norwood of Birkenhead.  It just trickled over the line in slow motion.  The Whites are going up, the whites are going up.

Tranmerekat Rovers going back to the football league.  Ta-ra to the bin league, wer'e going back where we belong.  The band of heroes have done it.

POTM : Take bow James Norwood 🥇, grafted for every one of the 103 minutes, provide the cross for the first goal and scored the second. Special mention 🥈for Connor Jennings for coming back from the dead, literally, to provide the cross for the winner.

Hope Rides is OK. Still love him.

League 2. Sounds good. See you there..

Love Tranmerekat 🐾

Come Rain Or Come Shine

Tranmere Rovers away to Dover Athletic (again) in the National League

It's not actually raining this time.  It's a nice spring Tuesday evening.  Originally travelled down to the Crabble Ground on Good Friday  for the match to be called off due to waterlogged pitch just as everyone was arriving.

The Whites verses urrm. the Whites in a battle del bianco.

Tranmere won the match 1-0 with Andy Cook in his magic hat scoring the only goal.  Fantastic atmosphere for a Tuesday night at the opposite end of the country.  Almost felt like we could sing the ball into the net.   🎵Oh Andy Cook is magic, he wears a magic hat. 🎩

Come on Dover! Move your bloomin' arse!!

Love Tranmerekat 🐾

Second time lucky

Let It Snow

Tranmere Rovers FC Away to Boreham Wood FC in the National League

Rovers away take on The Wood at a very cold and snowy Meadow Park.  Freezing my tail off  with the temperature at -2C watching Rovers lose 2-1 to Boreham Wood. Tranmere Rovers goal was scored by Lord Norwood.

A hot drink might have been nice. Just a thought.  

Can we go home now I can't feel my feet.
Up the shivering white army 🥶

Brrrrrrr  Tranmerekat 🐾

Will It Never End?

Tranmere Rovers away to Maidstone United at the Gallagher Stadium in the National League

My first match. The Rovers away to the Stones in the Kent sunshine in the Vanarama Nation league.  

Good VFM, 110 minutes for the price of 90.  Tranmere won 3-2 with goals from Andy Cook, Alex Finney (OG) and Adam Buxton.  

A lovely (long) day out in the Garden of England and 3 points going back to the Wirral.

Quick question. How many yards is 10 yards? Answers on a postcard to the ref.  Don't tell him it's less than 15 yards or you will be booked like Ollie Norburn.

See you

Love Tranmerekat  🐾

First match and the sun in shining
