Ronnie Moore hopes his Tranmere side can go all the way to next April Johnstone's Paint Trophy Final at Wembley after beating Crewe Alexandra 1-0 on Monday.

However, the Rovers boss was unhappy with his side's first-half display and was relieved when Chris Shuker grabbed an 86th-minute winner for his side.

He said: "We were slow out of the blocks. The first half was unacceptable.

"It needed one or two sharp words in the dressing room and we got a good response.

"What you want now is a nice home draw. Anything can happen on the night in this competition. It would be nice to get to the final."
