Best and Worst – Tranmere Rovers F.C
Geoff Carrington, 56 years old – Supporter since 1975
Best Tranmere Team
1993/94 Aldo, Pat Nevin, Mogsy, John McGreal, Danny Coyne or Nico in goal… great team that almost got promoted, quality all over the pitch. Used to love the fact that half the team would be in the Clipper after home games.
Worst Tranmere Team
2009/10 John Barnes era… enough said!
Best moment
Whilst there’s so much this is easy for me, Norwood’s goal at Wembley to get us promoted… still sends shivers down my spine when I think about it!
Worst moment
When we were relegated from the league in 2015…
Best game
FA cup win against Southampton, 3 down and came back to win 4 – 3… I remember walking down Borough Road on the way home and some Southampton fans kicking off saying Birkenhead was a shit hole… yeah it is a shit hole but we still beat you ha ha.
Worst game
Vs FGR 2017 play off final… horrible game against a horrible team.
Best Player’s haircut
Ian Goodison
Worst
Bas Savage
Best signing
John Aldridge… what a legend!
Worst Signing
Jason McAteer
Best season
1993/94 it was just amazing to be a Rovers fan and see us genuinely compete with the 2 sides from across the Mersey.
Worst Season
2016 first season in the conference – the football was just shocking
Best goal
Andy Parkinson vs Middlesbrough worthy cup 99
Worst Goal
Not sure – any goal against us…
Best Kit
I would say the current home kit
Worst Kit
Green away kit from 1995 (for some reason I used to have one and wear it all the time!)
Best Nickname
Super white army
Worst nickname
Scousers.
Best Chant
Super white army

Cult hero
Eric Nixon – Tranmere through and through
Worst
John Barnes – awful manager who then played the race card when he got sacked.
Hard man
Steve McNulty
Worst
Vinnie Jones when he played for QPR against Rovers – horrible player to watch.
Facial hair
Danny Lloyds Beard… that’s a proper beard.
Worst
Aldo’s tash… just no!
