Match Preview
Parry waits on Goodison Tranmere manager Les Parry will check on the fitness of defender Ian Goodison ahead of the home clash with fellow strugglers Notts County. The veteran centre-back suffered an ankle injury during Saturday's 2-0 win over Dagenham and was substituted in the closing stages. Yet Parry said: "We all know Ian Goodison, if he can play he will do." Midfielder Andy Robinson has been nursing a groin injury and rookie striker Dale Jennings is battling to shake off an ankle strain. Both players were unused substitutes at the weekend but Parry expects them to be nearer to full match fitness for the visit of the Magpies. The Rovers boss added: "Hopefully they will be a little bit closer for Tuesday night." Martin Allen may shuffle his pack once again. The new Magpies boss made five changes for the 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth at the weekend, with full-backs Jon Harley and Stephen Darby dropped from the squad completely. Experienced defender Graeme Lee is available after serving a two-match ban and he could be handed a start. John Thompson has played in midfield and defence during Allen's two games in charge but the captain is likely to play in the back four at Prenton Park. Striker Febian Brandy could be dropped after a quiet display against the Cherries, with Karl Hawley, Ben Burgess and Njogu Demba-Nyren all competing for a place up front. County have lost their last nine games and have scored just four goals in the last 12, but victory over Rovers would lift them out of the relegation zone.

Match Report
County back to winning ways Notts County's nine-match run of defeats came to end as they climbed out of the npower Division One relegation zone with a 1-0 victory at Tranmere. It was only a fourth win on the road thanks to a hotly disputed first-half penalty. Tranmere, who are far from safe in the division, had only themselves to blame as they wasted a string of first-half chances. County keeper Stuart Nelson saved with an outstretched leg from an angled strike by Lucas Akins after seven minutes. Robbie Weir made a hash of a good opportunity midway through the half before Enoch Showunmi missed the target. An Ian Goodison header was well held by Nelson who then turned aside a powerful strike by Weir. Martin Allen's side failed to trouble home keeper Tony Warner before they were awarded a fortuitous penalty for an innocuous looking challenge by Zoumana Bakayogo on Jon Harley. Craig Westcarr blasted home from the spot in the 42nd minute to break the deadlock. County grew in confidence as they weathered a series of Tranmere attacks after the break but it needed a fine save by Nelson to keep out an Aaron Cresswell free-kick in the 76th minute, the stopper tipping also over an added-time header by Adam McGurk. There were a series of ugly brawls in the closing stages culminating in County's Ricky Ravenhill seeing a red card in the seventh minute of second-half injury time.
