Tranmere Rovers (A) - League 2 - Sat 24th August, 12:30pm

Thanks

1-1 I think

My away home game. Hope as many of you can make it up as possible, but get that the kick off time, it being on the telly and the not insubstantial costs might make it prohibitive.

Doesn’t seem long ago that we were walking out of there with three points. Same again would be lovely.

This is an identical start to two season ago under Flynn which as we know petered out and he was potted by Easter. But a 4-0 win at Swindon puts me in mind of the same scoreline early in Graydon’s second promotion campaign. I think that had made it three wins out of three.

Mersey Clipper opens at 11 for those interested.

What channel is it on? I’m confused. Aren’t all the games on Sky+ anyway? And if so why the early kick off?

My away home game as well these days! It was April when we played them there last season, so no surprise it only just feels like we played them and came away with 3 points!

Hopefully a decent away following, as you say, despite the early kick off and it being on the telly box. I’m bringing two along, including my Liverpool-supporting father in law, but thankfully he appreciates football at other levels too!!

With the early kick off would be great to get around 7-800 there but our support is amazing especially when we have something to cheer about so it wouldn’t surprise me if 1500 turned up on the day

Posted this on another thread. Different team to then, and potentially much better as a unit, plus more to come this week.

If true that is absolutely astonishing support.

It’s on Sky+ and Saddlers+.

The 3pm games are only available outside the UK… unless you’ve got a dodgy box or VPN.

The early 12:30 kickoffs are the ones that have been moved to televise on Sky+.

In the next few weeks we’ve got a League Cup game and 2 EFL Trophy games all on Tuesday nights which will be televised. And at the end of September our Saturday home game against Colchester is at 12:30 as that’s on Sky+.

The club website says that it is not available in our region on Saddlers+??

Just had a look at the site and it looks like the only option is Sky+ or a dodgy box/VPN.


Yeah, that’s what I thought from reading things previously. So basically, we can’t watch anything live on the club service, it is just an audio service. Unless you subscribe and then can watch replays at a later date. Not that great if you don’t have sky.

It is available for international Saddlers+ viewers.

Yes, you’re right, i was just referring to those of us in, or appearing to be, in the UK!

I think Tranmere might have abit of injury crisis at the club, from what I’ve seen online they just managed to put a subs bench together last weekend while Luke Norris picked up an injury in first half.

Note: Just noticed they are playing tonight against Everton u21 in the papa johns ldv vans bristol street thingy, something they could have done without.

Yes when viewed from the USA:

Only 3 starting for Tranmere tonight that started against Vale Saturday .4/5 on bench though .

You can watch via a NowTV subscription if you don’t have Sky+.

Tranmere conceded 2 late on and looks like Everton u21s will beat them after leading, couple of mins left. I know there are a few changes but they look terrible at the back

Now 3-1. Big lad up from for Everton Sheriff I think his name is looks a right handful. Tranmere were winning with 4 mins of normal time left lol
