Another catalogue of defensive errors = another inept and embarrassing performance. I knew the writing was on the wall as soon as I heard we were unchanged from Saturday (no Mirf again, it's criminal). The same old problems that we have had all season (rubbish defensively, unable to score); we are going nowhere but down - quickly.
Town did get off to a fairly solid start though, without really creating a chance of note, but went behind on the half-hour mark. Keogh and Clarke helping tee up Paul McClaren who made no mistake with the finish. And it remained that way at half-time.
More defensive woe was to follow in the second half, as usual culprit Matt Glennon, who came to punch away a corner, only for it to land at an unmarked Shane Sherriff to head into an empty net. It was effectively game over at that point, no way back.
Even the introduction of Daniel Broadbent and a change to 4-3-3 did nothing for Town. The third Tranmere goal was also conceded from a set-piece (how many more times), when Gareth Taylor nodded home at the near post from a corner.
