Unfortuantly we didn't take advantage while many other clubs were involved in the FA Cup. It sounded like it was one of thos days where it wouldn't go in. Jackson and Greenacre both went just wide and Sharps hit the bar. Greenacre was also denied by an excellent save by the Bournemouth keeper. McAteer had a free kick saved well too. Near the end Goodison had a header cleared of the line too and despite a some pressure towards the end they held out. Sounded like we gave the ball away quite a lot at times. Look forward to reading reports from the people who went!

Dissapointed the way we started we just battered them and we couldnt find the back of the net. Should hav etook all 3 bourentmouth were poor they hardlky had a shot on goal.
its a point gained but I felty we should have took all 3 easily.

Looks to me as if a pattern is forming. That's the third draw in 3 games against Bournemouth. The away game in September was scoreless too.
We could have gained some valuable ground today, but we've at least got to the dizzy heights of 14th. Only a couple of places away from top half of the table and a bit more security.
Well guys it's finally time to exact some revenge on Hartlepool for last years Paly Off Semis. Let's hope we can rise to the occasion. They're only 2 point behind us so it'll be a tight fixture [-o< [-o<

bolton_hater is right when he says a point gained but should have taken all three.
It was one of those frustrating games. And whilst we didn't play badly, we didn't play like we have been in recent games. But... in all fairness, I give some credit to Bournemouth who I thought played a good away game.
They were never here to win. Their one single shot on target is evidence of this. However they frustated us in the second half and we failed to take our chances when we had them mostly in the first half.
The atmosphere was crap, understandably there were not many away fans, everybody else seemed too cold to get a song going and it was just a frustrating game.
Surprised to see O'Leary and Facey on the bench, and Little's substitute's came far too late IMO. It would have made more sense to bring on Facey and have 3 up front, sacrifcing maybe Goodison at the back. Dino looked cold and bored, he had that little to do.
I'd say we were unlucky with Sharps hitting the bar and Greenacre's superb shot being saved by an equally superb save. But we had other chnaces which the lads should have take better. The game was there to be won, but they couldn't do it.
Still, on the bright side, haven't been beaten for five games, and that's now 11 in 15 so still going well, and we moved up one place to 14th!
Praying for a good result against the monkey hangers.

Fair play to them though, it's 5 and a half hours on the train after all.
Thought they were one of the worst sides we've played this season. Unfortunatly we looked tired and couldn't kill them off. We had chances though.

Yeh but i went to the 0-0 game at Bournemouth and there must have been a good 400 at least there from Tranmere.

brilliant support from us that night bounremouth brought about 100 which isnt disgraceful as it is like 6 hours. I thought they would have took more but credit to those who went.
