Given Grimmy, Evans and Coulson have all just played Accrington Stanley, I don't think that's such a good idea.

thats a shame, didnt know that. Might've affected my purchase of tonights game! Probably not though, I'm a sucker for punishment. I'll just have to look forward to Norburn's passing masterclass instead! (hopefully jinx that into actually happening!).

looking again then, maybe this!

O'Donnell
Penno Casey Hubby
Gabriel Morgan Finnigan Ashworth
Apter

[King Billy]

Looks like there’s been a crash on m55 so might be worth giving the journey extra time.

Critchley will start Norburn over Finnigan

 

[TommyHutch]

Critchley will start Norburn over Finnigan

Yes, he’ll be loaning Finnegan out to Squires Gate to get some first team experience.

 

[Insider]

I wonder if Apter will be left behind at Tranmere after the match?

 

[Hazi]

What time is kick off?

 

[BFCPaul]

Interesting choosing O’Donnell for this one ..

Why? Grimmy played earlier

 

[hills98]

Critchley will start Norburn over Finnigan

Chose him over Morgan, alas. It wasnt that I expected him to not play, just hope :)

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Square pegs and round holes with Apter again.

Morgan not on the bench so must be unavailable.

Square pegs and round holes with Apter again.

It’s a feckin friendly

Do you think he will change things massively in the league? No he won't so I think it's safe to comment.

I can't wait for the day we go back to wingers. Wingers have been a massive part of our history and this is like a throwback to when Glenn Hoddle dabbled with 5-3-2 for England and rightly so back then.

 

[Mark_GT]

My shortest trip of the season. If you're here try the Brimstage brewery Trappers Hat in the fanzone opposite the ticket office. Very nice

 

[poolfc]

Stuart Barlow starts up front for Tranmere.

Elton Welsby in the studio. Gurnam Singh is the referee and your commentators are Rob McCaffrey and Jim Beglin

 

[Sandgrown1]

Is anyone else having problems with the 'click to buy' the Tranmere game on TTV?

 

[Matesrates]

Although it’s a friendly and one aim is more minutes in legs, it’s also about tactics and confidence. Not long to go now before the season starts, so we need to start seeing encouraging performances.

 

[Lost Seasider]

It's probably a question of why it wasn't the other way round.

Every time I click on tangerine player it shuts down?

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

Does it matter if they both get 90 mins?

 

[Sandgrown1]

Has anybody managed to buy the video pass for tonights game? .. I'm getting a bit pissed off with it now but want to watch the game.

 

[Sandgrown1]

for me, there's nothing happening when I try to buy the video pass? Grrrr I'm logged in, so it's not that.

[Costero Poderoso]

Can't even get into the bfc website at the moment

 

[stbe]

Trialist brothers are on the bench for Tranmere

 

[bfcpete]

Every time I click on tangerine player it shuts down?

Working OK for me. Looks a decent quality picture as well

 

[Sandgrown1]

Got it... there's 2 different 'click to buy' buttons... dunno how TF I landed on a second button but I did. A load of hassle tho' to actually give the club some dosh.... make it easier FFS!!!

 

[AmericanTangerine]

Glad Apter is getting another chance in that central creative midfield role.

 

[bfcpete]

Minutes silence for Southport incident

 

[Lost Seasider]

Does it matter if they both get 90 mins?

Probably not, it just seems a bit odd to play your #1 in a behind closed doors game, and then your reserve in the open game later the same day.

O'Donnell copped a bit of flak for his performance in the last game, perhaps Critch want's to check that isn't anything more than an aberration, maybe it's a squad harmony thing, or is Grimshaw being a dick in some way and needs putting in his place?

I think it’s just a case of making sure both get 90 mins in. Grimmy has been injured so is further behind in terms of fitness.

 

[Loco]

Maybe he's there to help the young defence?

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Minutes silence for Southport incident

I'm sure very moving. Horrible.

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

Good move and unlucky from ashworth

 

[AmericanTangerine]

Ashworth will challenge Coulson at LWB, very tidy and energetic player

 

[SydneyTangerine]

Norburn had the ball 6 times ...played it forward 5 of them

 

[AmericanTangerine]

Apter doing better, great ball in behind to Ashworth

 

[AmericanTangerine]

Apter always looking to put his head up and drive the ball forward, think he can play that central creative role if given time

 

[TommyHutch]

Coulson’s too lightweight.

 

[AmericanTangerine]

You can tell Critch has been emphasizing attacking intent when we have the ball.

Players are looking up and forward more when receiving the ball.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Those square pegs might eventually turn round.

 

[kerrytangerine]

Coulson’s too lightweight.

Still waiting for your first positive statement on anything.

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

Husband costs us a goal far too often

 

[poolseasider]

Anyone got it on their dodgy Firesticks yet.
Sod all.
