Parry relishing "massive game"

20 January 2011 13:30
Tranmere boss Les Parry believes Saturday`s visit of Southampton represents his side`s biggest test of the season on home soil. Saints lie third in npower League One and look well-placed to make a serious challenge for automatic promotion. Rovers, in contrast, sit just one place above the relegation zone and are desperate to improve on their showing at St Mary`s in October, when they lost 2-0. Parry said: "It's probably our biggest home game. The only thing that dampens it is that the away support has to travel so far, so they won't bring as many as some of the local sides do, but it's a massive game for us. "We've got a good history of doing well against the better sides. We beat them here last season but unfortunately we went there this season and lost 2-0 and it could have been a few more. "We didn't do particularly well so let's hope we do better than that on Saturday."
