Brighton - Tranmere 0-1 (0-1)

Most of the games I report here, is through the eyes of Derek Jones. This game was no exception and I thought we sounded so comfortable for most of the game. It was almost a worrying sign that Brighton hardly ever caused us trouble. Especially in the first half it seemed like we were very much in control. It sounded like we could have been 2 or 3 up according to Mr Jones. Still Greenacres goal on 20 minutes was the only we should get. There was a mixup between two Brighton defenders, Greenacre took advantage and ran into the area. One Brighton player came sliding in, but he missed Greenacre with a mile. Chrissy poked the ball behind the Brighton keeper, 0-1

The second half also started quite comfortable. But I always had the feeling that we couldnt get away with it that easily. It was silent before the storm. The last 20 minutes we were hanging on. In injury time our penalty area sounded like a warzone with bodies everywhere. Blocking shots, clearing whatever it took to keep that ball out. Even though there were a lot of pressure, they only had one or two chances. Great battling performance in the end there, but it sure was a torture to listen on the radio.
