What's with all the anti-Tranmere feeling? I know we got relegated at their place but it was hardly their fault.


The gloating that day was bang out of order IMO. The worst day of my town supporting life - that takes some doing

Just said on BT Sport a Bristol v Town Wembley final would be tasty and a near sell out.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I think that might be a slight exaggeration. Maybe 40,000 - 50,000 though which would be fantastic. Lots of work to do before that. Banish all thoughts of Wembley at this point and leave it to BT Sport.

The delight Tranmere fans took from our demise was extremely difficult to take. I was there that day, I remember the news of the Chesterfield goal filtering through (who doesn't?!) and the Tranmere fans celebrated that more than the two goals they scored against us that day.

They were still bitter about a 3-1 defeat at BP back in March 2001 when Livvo poleaxed their keeper and the goal was allowed to stand.

They laughed, danced, jeered, stayed behind to mock us and revel in our misery. We had adults in tears. They generally took utter delight in our misery and misfortune, in a way that you might expect a bitter local rival might do.

It was my stag do - went in suits and black ties to commemorate the loss of bachelorhood.
Also remember that their youth team won a cup of some kind and we cheered their kids team more than they did - indicative of their supporters mindset.


To quote - Insanely amazing or amazingly insane. Life as a Town Fan.
