Nice piece of symmetry for Harrison Male too. Last game for his old club was a certain game against Dale and here he is again on debut for his new team. |  | |  |

| Possession with progression. |

| Refwatch - Tranmere Rovers v Rochdale on 15:43 - Aug 1 with 10002 views | joecooke | Very entertaining first half.We look very good going forward and brilliant when playing out from the back ,when it works. When it doesnt it is horror show stuff. |  |

| Refwatch - Tranmere Rovers v Rochdale on 15:54 - Aug 1 with 9856 views | isitme | An awful start but then we settled and look dangerous going forward when we play it quicker. We have been a bit lackadaisical at times and invited too much pressure. Understandably we have looked shaky defensively. Hannant has looked lively and has justified his start. |  | |  |
| Refwatch - Tranmere Rovers v Rochdale on 16:00 - Aug 1 with 9794 views | tony_roch975 | As in the friendlies, good in possession but defensively vulnerable & lucky to be even; several times players at the back getting in each other's way & caught out under high balls. We gave the ball away half a dozen times in dangerous places. Gilmour and East haven't really clicked yet & Dieseruvwe hasn't won a header. Lots of possession but only 1 shot on target. Hannant & TAR most effective going forward - equally Tranmere are average and as long as they keep missing opportunities we could snatch a win. [Post edited 1 Aug 16:01]

| Refwatch - Tranmere Rovers v Rochdale on 16:52 - Aug 1 with 9357 views | ThreeLions | Think we are going to have to make some more signings. The injury list has grown significantly this afternoon with Petitt, Sherring and Hannant limping off injured [Post edited 1 Aug 16:53]

More like Tranmere lost on penalties! Some shockers there! Ebanks-Landell? |  |

The worst penalty shoot out ever. Two good saves from Ramming though. |  | |  |
| Refwatch - Tranmere Rovers v Rochdale on 17:23 - Aug 1 with 8949 views | D_Alien | Much as like last season, we were the better team, might've not taken advantage but found a way to scrape through Overall, i think we'll be fine, providing we don't succumb to too many injuries. Obviously have to tighten up at the back Yep, shocking shootout but Ramming did every bit as well as Whatmuff MoM for me: Bilongo (although only saw second half at Moody Blue). Strong and composed Starting on a positive note is all we can ask for, and loads of room for improvement all over the pitch |  |

I have been saying throughout the summer that we need a bigger squad to cover injuries, etc and especially with a difficult game next Saturday at Bradford. Can anyone answer the following questions. Why was Hendo missing today? How did Ramming Play? What was the formation, that we played? |  | |  |

Would add Ramming to that. Agree if we're playing a midfield 3 Casey has to anchor it. |  | |  |

You are allowed to move - just need foot on the line. |  |

Agreed. Another EEL/Sherring mix up and they go ahead again and they should have scored 2 more. Silcott-Duberry on for Hayes (who never quite got going) and grabs the equaliser again out of nothing. Playing Gilmour in the 10 gives more MF strength but he's not a natural attacker. Dale's fighting spirit shows through again but the biggest concern is the Hannant/Petit injuries. |  |

| Refwatch - Tranmere Rovers v Rochdale on 17:36 - Aug 1 with 8693 views | 49thseason | First win of the pre-season is an important milestone and will give them as bit of confidence particularly with such an unsettled side.... 627 passes according to the BBC , nearly 3 times more than Tranmere.. still, if we have the ball, they can't score with it! If we can get a settled first choice 11 or so with a solid defence, we will only improve. |  | |  |

We need a couple more players. We can’t keep signing people just because of an extraordinary injury list. Ramming played well. We played 4-2-3-1. Hopefully that will stop any rebellious feelings developing. I thought we looked ok, still a bit too open at the back but better with three midfielders than a forward as the 10. What pleased the most was that we had much more of the game. Better than the constant trading of the ball seen previously. Silcott-Duberry will be a big player if we can keep him fit. |  |

| Refwatch - Tranmere Rovers v Rochdale on 17:42 - Aug 1 with 8589 views | Edindale | Slightly fortunate to win on penalties despite our dominance in possession %. I was expecting us to be more direct this season but we didn't create many chances and Mani had little or no service. We need someone who can play through the lines and I suspect that was Jenkins. Tranmere were very physical winning most 50:50 balls, and we weren't. They are not a great side and will probably struggle again this year. Bilongo was good and I thought that Moss was steady when he came on. Hannant, TAR and Hayes played in little patches but without much cohesion. Ramming will be fine once he stops dribbling the ball so often and he looks a decent shot stopper especially from penalties. Will be interesting to see how Silcott- Duberry develops. Injuries now looking a problem but signings promised. Onwards and upwards. UTD |  | |  |

From what I’ve seen so far, Moss would be starting at CH. He sees danger and covers so well. Unfortunately with all the signings, can see him missing out. |  |
