Rovers wait on Goodison fitness

23 August 2010 13:00
Tranmere defender Ian Goodison is a major doubt for the Carling Cup second-round tie at home to Swansea. The veteran Jamaica international sustained an ankle injury during Saturday's 3-0 home defeat at the hands of Bournemouth and will be assessed closer to kick-off. Centre-back Marlon Broomes and utility player Ash Taylor are definitely missing through injury and boss Les Parry must decide whether to include Ian Thomas-Moore. The striker has had a transfer request turned down and showed his frustration at being substituted on Saturday by kicking the wall of the players' tunnel. Thomas-Moore is keen to join his father Ronnie at Rotherham and Parry said: "I just want it resolving one way or another and don't want it hanging over us any longer."
