Just seen the goals on Points West apart from the penalty which was well taken the rest of the goals looked to be very good goals from both sides

Nicholson 22nd minute Rovers 2 - 0 Calum MacDonald 25th Minute for Tranmere Rovers 2 - 1 MacDonald and Kilgour both yellow carded 32nd minute, MacDonald for a foul no idea for Kilgour's Kilgour apparently pushed MacDonald in the chest and MacDonald went down holding his face.

Anderton picks up the first yellow card of the evening, looking at this refs record he gives cards out for fun 23 yellow and 1 red in 11 games Brandon Thomas-Asante yellow 39th minute 41st minute Matty Willock red card Donald Love yellow card 48th minute
Think we need a goal or two to kill the game off, Pitman on the bench 1/2 hour left Elliott has flattened Belshaw with a high boot, Belshaw being treated by 4 medics Ward warming up Elliott not carded
It’s all us but we need another goal to be sure of the 3 points. We were well on top even before the red card but we need that second goal.
Belshaw has to change his shirt because it is bloodied but is carrying on Hunter replaces Morris 65th minute Pitman on for Collins 75th minute Elliott yellow carded 80th minute 84th minute Nicholson replaced by Thomas Salford down to 9 men Ash Hunter straight red for catching Grant in the face 11 minutes extra time to be played Away supporter taken away in a wheelchair Whelan sprinted over with medical equipment from the dugout Asante- Thomas for Salford 1 - 1
According to Sam Frost Elliott their Scorer should have been red carded for his challenge on Belshaw Played 60 minutes I reckon the game will stop when they score again All over 1 - 1 I hope that a new striker will be a priority in the transfer window
Tomorrows match against FGR is refereed by Simon Mather who has dished out 71 yellow and 6 red cards in 16 matches, should be an interesting match
Do I get the impression this is as good as a home game for you Bluebaldee because the stadium is near by
The New Lawn is a 10 minute drive away but it’s ruddy well sold out for Gas. And to add insult to injury my eldest doesn’t have an afternoon match to be ferried to and from so I would have gone
Todays team v FGR Belshaw, Grant, Finley, Coutts, Anderton, Taylor, Anderson, Evans, Harries, Whelan, Pitman. Subs Ward, Thomas, Westbrooke, Collins, Martinez, Clarke, Spence. Jamille Matt scores 20 minutes FGR 1 - 0
The New Lawn is about 600ft up a hill. I’m glad I’m not stood on an open terrace in a freezing gale watching us get our backside handed to us by FGR.
