Salute to the super fans

May 9 2009 by Nick Hilton, Liverpool Echo

TRANMERE ROVERS’ impassioned support in the final-game showdown at Scunthorpe last weekend left a lasting impression on manager Ronnie Moore and his family, who were also at the game.

More than 1,600 fans packed into one end of Glanford Park and out-shouted the home supporters through most of the afternoon.

Moore said: "The supporters we took to Scunthorpe were unbelievable.

“The noise they made from start to finish was tremendous, even after Scunthorpe scored.

“I felt gutted for them at the end. I knew how they felt.

“My two young lads were in the crowd as well.

“They were bitterly upset about the result."
