    Just left Shrewsbury to be the new Tranmere boss.

    What an odd move

    Looked like he was gonna get sacked soon so he probably would have had to step down a league, also Tranmere can probably offer more than Shrewsbury can and I think he's an ex Tranmere player so not that odd, maybe just the fact hes gone backwards two leagues

    Whilst in hindsight, relegation was a blessing for us, I believe we'd have made a better fist of staying up had Mellon been given the rest of the season at least

    How on earth can Tranmere offer more money than Shrewsbury?

    More to life than money.

    And Shrewsbury.

    Tranmere's on the coast! Just about.

    Didn't say there wasn't, I was commenting on the assertion by another poster that Tranmere could probably offer him more money. They're 2 leagues lower, get lower crowds and haven't had a pot to piss in for ages as far as I'm aware.

    Tranmere are on their way up, back from the dead maybe. New owners/investment. Shews are going nowhere.

    He's due a slice of luck to be fair. It's gone a bit sour for him since he left us, and although Tranmere might not be the peach of a job people expect him to take, he could berry well make it work.

    I believe he is moving closer to his daughter who is the apple of his eye, and the challenge of resurrecting a proud Merseyside club is getting his juices flowing.

    I understand he is looking to create something a little bit special with players Louis Almond & Andy Cook.
