Tranmere
« on: June 28, 2014, 02:35:06 PM »
I note they've now scheduled a friendly at home to Everton on the same evening we are due to host them, bit annoying as I'm not sure the youth team of a league two side will be much of a workout after seeing our youth team play them a couple of months ago...

We should try to arrange a replacement fixture. Our players need to be tested ahead of the new season, not having an easy ride against the youth team of a club one division above us.

Our youth lads were evenly matched against theirs in the FA youth cup game at prenton park, bit late to do anything about it now I suppose

I think it takes the piss to be honest. The friendly would have been chosen as part of our preparations and now it won't be as good a test for our players as it should be.

Burnley treated us better than this.

It makes Tranny look rude and inconsiderate to be honest.

Why not put OUR youths out against them - playing it at the training ground, and arrange a better test for the first team at Moss Lane?

It was Cheshire Senior Cup, and we fielded a young but mixed side......but the point remains valid.

If everton say they are playing them on a certain date you can't really expect them to refuse it annoying as it is

Quite right Phil, however me mistaking it for FA youth cup illustrates how youthful both sides involved were!

It would be good if we could find some proper opposition for 22nd as tranmere have confirmed their Everton friendly now

Some tranmere supporters aren't best pleased either, they've booked a coach to come to altrincham, and have said they are still coming here rather than watching evertons youth team, seems a poor decision although one I understand
