Tranmere Rovers Reaction - Rovers

24 August 2010 00:10
Here's the post match reaction from the Tranmere Rovers camp after their defeat at the weekend. Rovers manager, Les Parry, was quoted after the 3-0 defeat as saying: "Our performance was not as bad as the result would suggest. We realise the fans were disappointed and no one was more disappointed than me. But I thought we pressed the self-destruct button repeatedly. We started better than we started a game for some time. Then within 10 seconds of nearly scoring from a free-kick, they broke on us and scored. A big punt down the middle brought them a second goal. We started the second half really well but once again a square ball was intercepted, they broke on us and we were 3-0 down. We did control the possession in the first third of the field but once we advanced our quality began to suffer. Bournemouth were good, when we gave them the ball, at counter-attacking very quickly. That’s what caused us all the problems".
