Shaw Lane record for March is three straight defeats, scored zero, conceded eight.

I suppose we'll provide the necessary Calpol on Tuesday.....

The number of signings is unimportant ...our experiences with Neil Young taught us that. Depends If they are any good and fit in with their squad, so no guarantees.

The older Scottish fella they got off Tranmere, these are the exact words of my pal who has a ST at Prenton Park;

‘He’s fcuking awful now and they’ll ship goals if he plays’

So I wouldn’t get too excited just yet about Warrington chucking yet more cash at it, even if they are trying to maintain this plucky underdogs story.

Every player in this league is sh*t by conference standards, so the fact they signing players from a conference team and we're signing players from Ramsbottom and Stalybridge is worrying for sure

Really. I'm sure Dens , Moult and Richman will be pleased to hear it.

I’ll take the word of my mate who goes up Tranmere every week as opposed to your relentless blitzkreig of negativity.

Both of those players have played in the Conference to be fair.

They've played in a team that has had two successive relegations so if the cap fits...

Messi couldn't have done anything about our predicament of the last two years.

The best response to negativity is don't respond.

people like Dens and Moult were hear when we won promotion and maintained ourselves in the conference.

It's still in our hands. Lets get back to winning ways if we can, which I am sure is what the lads want.

We can only hope that Jay McEveley does for them what Danny Higginbotham did for us.....

Don’t let Jamie’s often crude bedside manner detract from when he is making a reasonable point.

None of our current players would look good in Tranmere’s team either. Anyone who thinks they would is either deluding themselves, or attaching too much weight to past glories.

That’s not to be negative about this season, or to take away anything at all from any of our present squad, who have been successfully assembled to win the league they currently sit top of. But at the same time, the gulf between levels is massive, and I wouldn’t start dismissing anyone’s chances of success in this league based on a few ropey performances in the conference.
