That's one thing that I wish the English teams would get better at: audio streaming of the broadcasts. The "world" site that most teams are affiliated with require payment, and thus the local stations can't stream it online because of "contractual obligations".

Here in North America, we've got it pretty good because you can usually listen to the home and away feeds, for free, on your PC, iPhone, etc.

Just a little rant... carry on.

Down 2-0 now. This could be grim.

That's one of the problems over there imo; they nickle and dime you on absolutely everything. It seems like there's no such thing as a free app, a free stream.. even free highlights are hard to find.

Rovers in action again right now in League One.

They're up 0-1 at Notts County after 25 minutes on a goal by Welsh.

It's 'supposed' to be on Merseyside Radio in the 2nd half *fingers crossed*

Rovers went down 2-1, then Ladabie tied it up at 2-2 with 10 minutes to go.

Then what looks like total chaos, a last minute penalty against Tranmere and TWO rovers sent off. 8 minutes of injury time! grrrrr

Useful point today against a good Sheffield United team who had won their first three matches.

Pretty good start to the season, all things considered.

Tranmere advanced from the 1st Round of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on penalties against Port Vale.

Rovers level the scores at 1-1 in the 88th minute than won 4-2 on penalties.

No love for the Rovers anymore? Saving this from the third page...........

Anyway, they've been doing pretty well recently. Up to 6th in the league. (Playoff place!)

They've won their last three league fixtures and are unbeaten in five straight. That's good going for a team of Tranmere's stature.

And they're doing it with great defense. Of the 15 Leagues matches they've played, they've had 9 shutouts. Or more appropriately, 9 CLEAN SHEETS!
