I'm guessing the people moaning would have preferred the wolves result and performance?

No. I'd rather win. But I'm calling it as it was, dull to watch.

As much as the Slave Traders game was good todays was shit. Tranmere lined up with 10 behind the ball and were absolute dogshit. We were better but that was a pretty poor performance. How the fuck did Luongo get MOM. I know i'll get flamed but I thought JMac had a decent game today. Byrne and Pritchard were both shit. We really need someone who can take a corner. Hall just switches off. Not a great day for the Spurs boys today.
Saying that we never seemed in danger of conceding.
Its three points and they're welcome but that was a fucking awful game.  
Mason was missed today

Was a dull and pedestrian affair that
Tranmere came to spoil the game and held a high tight back line that we really didnt have much of an idea how to get thru
We played narrower than have seen for a while when width would have been our friend today
Tis a pity Storey gone out on loan as that was tailor made for his pace with a ball over the top

Still, its 3 pts and we only lose N Thompson for the JPT so thats a result in itself

Another toughie away coming up at Rotherspam

And to cap it all

That we're calling a 1-0 home win boring pleases me. We'd have taken that during preseason I know!

If Wolves was a full-blooded erection that was very much half-mast.

True, but at least we got to climax today!

We'd have murdered them if he'd been fit.

sounds like my decision to miss today was a decent one. Plymouth might be a bit more exciting

Be a good experience for them, learn how to break these Bus teams down. If there was a table of home records over the last few years, I bet we are top 3 record wise. Clubs will know that and play accordingly. Will Wolves and Peterborough come here with 4 up front? No.

10 games in is usually considered a reasonable time to take stock...not sure we can do this, because most of the away games have been against top 6 sides and then home games v bottom 6 sides...we'll need to play a few more games v middleing  teams to get a better picture of where we are...the pattern is repeated though in the next couple as we're away to Rotherham, and home to Notts County.

46 games is the best time to judge Reg. No if's and but's then mate. We're doing ok IMO. We're mid table but based on what I've witnessed this season I'm more hopeful of going upwards than fearful of going downwards. I'd have been more than happy with this situation in June.

True, but we're football fans so it's what we do...the acid test is going to be when we visit someone shit, and then entertain one of the top sides, games we need to be winning.

3rd in League One this season based on home games only.

Agreed! I'm confident we'll come through more often than not though.
