It is with great sadness that I share the news that our Club President, John Dennet, passed away today at 1:15pm. John was a true legend of our club and a proud World War II veteran. His lifelong commitment, dedication, and passion for the club were second to none. From youth football right through to the senior team, John played an enormous role in shaping the club into what it is today. On behalf of everyone at the club, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for everything he gave over so many years. His presence, wisdom, and unwavering support will be sorely missed by all who knew him. Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with John’s family and friends at this difficult time. Rest in peace, John. Your legacy will live on in our club forever. Well holding a minutes applause this Saturday 28th March at 3pm, at our last game of the season to remember John. 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤

@RicciTRFC Sweepstake on where Norman ends up next year? I’ll go Brackley Town

That one hurt. There was far more commitment and desire today. Unfortunately a certain player switched off again and it's proved costly. Need to figure out something to try & score a goal, Ironside like playing with 10 men #trfc #swa

@RicciTRFC Someone in the JK clapped on 45 when the CB let the ball run through to Marosi. I’d love to take whatever they are on.

Again, the fans are extremely tolerant but that's because the fight has been beaten out of us. I imagine there would have been uproar at most other grounds #trfc #swa

Supported the club when kingy was appointed, been season ticket holders, home and away most weekends, brother played for club, and I can say with all honestly this was the worst half of football I have ever witnessed at PP, my club is rotten to the core, these players and owners don’t care, we are not a professionally ran club, and by end of season we won’t be in a professional league. #SWA #TRFC

@SirQuinno No no no, the kangaroo only had to bounce into the park to achieve a knockout.

@leonlen 3-0!

Read the replies. If anything, understated. Can’t get the basics right, on or off the pitch. Who would buy such a shambles? #trfc #swa

Considering the circumstances, that might the worst 45 from a Tranmere side I've ever seen. Can't run, pass, tackle, head. Don't look arsed, absolute gobshites these players. This is the Palios legacy, he deserves to be relegated, club in terminal decline #trfc #swa

Seven Subs!

@FootballCliches @CDEccleshare @D_C_W Nice variation here “orange blood”

Recording FOOTBALL CLICHES with @CDEccleshare & @D_C_W on Monday... Let's have your questions, observations, pleas for football-linguistic investigation, footballers' names in things & anything else at all for the Adjudication Panel Cheers!

At the same time, we are bludgeoned by signs and audio requests – known as ‘Tannoy spam’ – that tell us how to behave, particularly when we travel. Don’t smoke, stand on the right, let passengers off first, don’t run in the rain, don’t swear at our staff. It’s as if the more we’re shouted at, the more chance we’ll remember something we didn’t learn as children. Is there a passenger in the country who doesn’t dread being told ‘See it, say it, sorted’? ✍️ Anthony Horowitz Article | spectator.com/article/the-in…

Britain's net zero national suicide pact is about to kill off another great British (and great Derbyshire) company. Denby Pottery @denbypottery goes into administration because of "soaring industrial energy costs" and of course "escalating costs of employment in the UK". itv.com/news/central/2…

@SirQuinno @seethelizards @CarpeZytha Bigger stakes than me, but glad to be in profit!

@leonlen @seethelizards @CarpeZytha Luckily I went to a physical bookies before the race. Each way bet! Just picked up the winnings.

Almost 15 years since I last did Nottingham city centre so let's put that right today. Not a great start at the nearest Spoons to the station. Bland place with long pour ale. Luckily there are another two Spoons a few mins away.

Clearly a Saints top 3 but good luck deciding in what order. 😉 Probably Wright given how many times that play fails.

@SirQuinno Missed TRFCs one and only visit to Rushden & Diamonds on a Weds night (they did the double over us naturally) for a uni night out here.

Canalhouse It's a smashing venue. Staff not that bothered about the wares. My half of Verdant Lahamva is decent. Feels like the effort is for students and dining.

@SirQuinno @seethelizards @CarpeZytha You can recoup your outlay in the 5.20 at Cheltenham

@seethelizards @CarpeZytha Amazing info sir, not that my wallet feels much better though.

Fancy.

Today's piece is on Tranmere Rovers and what happens when everything gets stuck

You are being misinformed about the state of English rivers. All the evidence points to vast improvements. Please watch (now with audio).

@SirQuinno @CharFoster3489 Yeah. Newport were crap. We are in a vortex, never mind sucked in. Was considering Fleetwood away a week Sat, but might do a @StymieSi and swerve the actual match.

@leonlen @CharFoster3489 Saw them grind out a 0-0 at Fleetwood on Saturday. They didn't look like they knew where the goal was. You're getting sucked in just at the wrong time.

Newport County 3-1 Tranmere Rovers Text @CharFoster3489 to say we’d scored too soon & lo and behold, we had. Daft sending off, daft tactics, daft players, hello National League. #trfc #swa
