Squad2 Nov 2026

A row about effort at Tranmere Rovers

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Harry McKirdy was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match27 Oct 2026

Crawley Town take the points off Tranmere Rovers

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Matt Ingram gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Rodrigo Cabrera in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Tranmere Rovers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market2 Nov 2026

Still no ink between Tranmere Rovers and Janoi Donacien

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Tranmere Rovers, another week without a signature from Janoi Donacien.

Squad2 Nov 2026

“I want to play”: Matt Ingram speaks

“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A place in the month's best eleven for Josh Eccles

Four or five weekends of consistency, judged against everybody in the division doing his job. Josh Eccles has come out of that comparison in the side, and Tranmere Rovers have had the benefit of every one of those afternoons.

Match31 Oct 2026

Honours even between Tranmere Rovers and Chesterfield

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Josh Eccles was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 14. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Age has not caught Joe Ironside yet — 7.99

At 33 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.99 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Tiago Machado gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Tranmere Rovers

Rodrigo Cabrera was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match24 Oct 2026

Joe Ironside rescues a point for Tranmere Rovers

It needed Joe Ironside to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Gillingham, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Luke Lawrence chose the glass-half-full version of 1‑1; the supporters left with the other one.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Tranmere Rovers keep their word to Lewis Warrington

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

Squad26 Oct 2026

No place for Santiago Martínez in the new shape

He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation Tranmere Rovers are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Tranmere Rovers pick somebody else ahead of James Plant

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Looking ahead26 Oct 2026

Harry McKirdy goes back to face Crawley Town

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Harry McKirdy’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Tranmere Rovers needing him to play as if none of it matters.

Squad12 Oct 2026

The step up is real for William Tamen

At 20 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Harry McKirdy in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Tranmere Rovers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Michael Reindorf is a square peg at Tranmere Rovers

The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Words at Tranmere Rovers training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Sol Solomon is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Kristian Dennis

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Kristian Dennis, and the manager let it.

Market12 Oct 2026

Rodrigo Cabrera brings the grey hairs Tranmere Rovers lacked

At 37, he has seen every situation this season can produce, twice. The legs will be managed; the head is the purchase.
