Ronnie Moore said his side must learn after yet another late goal sent them crashing to defeat away from home against Southend United in League One. Perhaps the only plus point was that Rovers didn't lose too much ground on those above them as they continue to chase the play-off places.

After Rovers fell to yet another defeat away from home, this time at Southend United, Ronnie Moore insisted his side must learn from conceding late goals and admitted they made the wrong decisions in the game....

Moore told Tranmere World...... 

"First minute and last minute...how many times are we going to get done with it?  We've got to learn.  Three players walked away when the goalkeeper took the kick, one of them should have stood on it."

"All it needed was a knock into the corner. Ian got tangled up with their lad and it ended up being a free kick.  Then the three lads turned their back on it.  Ryan has held his hand up, but you shouldn't be done from there."

"In the first half we weren't at the races.  But in the second half we got on it, passed it and had one or two little chances.  The decisions we made were the wrong decisions.  It's a tough place to come and you'd have been happy with a point."

"There's a bit of ill feeling in the dressing room.  There's moaning about not holding it up in the corner, and there's moaning at centre backs about getting it cleared."

Moore told the press that goalkeeper Danny Coyne may be out for a few more games after aggravating an injury in training on Friday which meant that young keeper Peter Kennedy had to travel down to meet up with the squad....          

"Danny had a block tackle in the last kick at Colchester on Tuesday.  He tweaked it in training on Friday, and it might be a couple of weeks.  So we had to get young PK down and it probably frightened the life out of him.  We're hoping Goody might be back for next Saturday which would be brilliant, and Chris Greenacre is still two weeks away."

Another gem of a comment from Ronnie after Saturday was this....

“In that split-second Dougie Freedman, very cute and clever, was allowed to get inside Ryan Shotton."

Kinky!!
