It was his 3rd game.

Apologies I thought that was his first game in charge. Lost to Bradford away & Stockport at home previously so a really tough start.

Tranmere sack Mickey Mellon.

They always say never renew your vows or go back for a second go. But for Mellon going back to Tranmere, he was always going to be in the cantaloupe; unfortunate the honeydew period didn't last as long as his first spell... Cheesy

Tranmere might pray to the gods that they have to endure yet another season in L2 and galia goodbye to Mellon.

Apparently they’re going down the same route we are in squad assembly. Signing players for development and those dropping down from academies with a view to selling on for a profit.

Can’t understand why more clubs don’t follow this model!

Worked well for us so far!   Suspect it's used as a guise to reduce the budget.

I think many clubs do this but do it in a balanced way.   Going all out nursery has a low chance of succeeding.

Winning football matches drives revenue growth at this level.  If you do that you also showcase the talent.   A player from a shit team will never command a much of a fee.

Wouldn't surprise me if Artell went there given those comments.

But the only objective for them is to avoid relegation, then it will be new manager in the summer either way.

Its the thing with these middling PL teams, the main objective each season is just don't get relegated, they literally don't have anything else to realistically play for, I am not sure I could be arsed to support a team doing that kind of thing what is there to look forward to.

I fear we would be similar if we got to the Championship without massive investment, just a prolonged period of frantically treading water at best.

I appreciate what you are saying, survivial is a good season for about 50% of all Premier League teams every season.

As you state without serious investment they cannot ever be challenging at the top half of the table, even Newcastle with their massive investment have struggled to get into the top half at times yet by most would be considered one of the struggling 50% of teams normally.

With a squad as talented as Palace have, and they do have some outstanding players,I think they should be doing a lot better,so maybe it was down to Viera in some way

I am sure it is down to Viera but for me Woy is not a firefighter manager and not the correct appointment.

No, I quite agree mate. Might as well have gone for Sam Allardyce!
