Tranmere Rovers at Wembley In Preview….

We don’t want to be in Division 3, we are in this competition because we are in Division 3, realistically we can only have desires on winning two trophies – the Div 3 Title, (pretty much in the bag) and …. The Papa John’s Trophy, given that we are in the final, we may as well win it.

Papa……”

We are playing well, we are winning games and we have momentum, we all know that promotion is our main aim, but we are 90 minutes from winning a trophy, so let’s get it won?

Are Tranmere Any Good…

They are doing pretty well in Division 4, (3rd or 4th), they also looked pretty comfortable against a strong Oxford team in the Semi Final, I’m not for one moment suggesting we don’t have a load more quality than them, but they are no mugs. When the EFL showed the spine of an arthritic slug, in wrapping up the league early, Tranmere had won 3 on the spin and would surely have escaped relegation, if we were aggrieved at the curtailment- they had every right to be as mad as a cut snake. Without getting over technical, they aren’t bad but we are better. SAFCBlog Predicts ….SAFC 4 vs TRFC 2

Last Season….

We beat them 5-0 at home, they were absolutely hapless,

1-0 win at their gaff on one of the coldest nights ever….

Cup Fever….

As discussed I’m on board with winning this, I’ll be honest it’s not really excited me – it’s probably the not being able to go? The whole Trafalgar Square thing is not for me, I get too nervous before big games and there’s so much to do in London it’s just not for me, although I’m an old miserable twat – so that’s probably explanation enough. The whole vibe around the club feels more positive than it has for years, I did consider doing a Wembley Push for likes, follows, shares, virtual friends etc….. but that’s not really my bag – lack of quality always beats quantity?

What else are you going to do on a Saturday?

I’m going to watch Blackpool vs Fleetwood online, predominantly as a scouting exercise on the basis we still have to play them twice and aside from us, Blackpool are the form team. I also like the idea of a Local Derby – I appreciate it’s not a huge rivalry, but on my last trip to Fleetwood I met a man who had walked from Blackpool to Fleetwood, he’d eaten eight tangerines en route and was claiming there are no bins between Blackpool and Fleetwood, surely that can’t be true? Whether it’s true or not – it’s indicative of exactly why we need to get back to football – it’s so much more than 90 minutes?

“You’ve Sold Your Soul You Lousy Bastard…”

It’s Wembley Week, SAFCBlog has of late engaged with a few responsibly sourced ethical sponsors, but I concede this preview is a bit mainstream? Fear not to the fucking loons who enjoy this blog, it’s just a Wembley Thing….

Realism Rangers FC 0 vs Analogy Athletic AFC 1, (Claypole, 66)

We’re in a final, we’re on the Big TV, it would be inappropriate to offer a cheap analogy….

Sunday = Stag Do?

yes….. we are all agreed that the destiny is the league…. it’s important this event doesn’t get in the way of the future- but we’re there now, balls deep – we may as well enjoy it. Ultimately Sunday won’t have a bearing on our future happiness, but it will remain a date that will be ingrained in our future…. so we may as well make the most of it… for riding Las Vegas Hookers and snorting Coke off their tits , (for example), think edging past Tranmere at an empty Wembley…

In Other News…..

Blue Pens Matter….

I’ve found my blue pen….
