Happy 50th anniversary of Tranmere knocking you out of the League Cup, at Highbury.

I believe we were the only side with a 100% record at the famous old ground. SWA!

Imagine if we played at the Emirates now. It would be about 13-0

I walked past Prenton Park once. Maybe a second time on the way back as well.

Jason Koumas scored a cracking freekick against Liverpool in a League Cup match, or possibly the FA Cup. You beat us 2-1.

These are the associations I have with Tranmere Rovers.

Benfica also have a 100% record at highbury.

For years in my mental rolodex Tranmere Rovers = Half Man Half Biscuit, Awaydays by Kevin Sampson, John Aldridge, Dixie Dean and Jason McAteer.

Now it's just pretty much Corrin though. To all intents and purposes he is Tranmere Rovers as far as my mind is concerned.

Haha. Didn't realise McAteer and Dixie Dean had played there, although I knew McAteer was from Birkenhead.

Yeah, it's pretty much just GIMH now.

I’ll take it.

Think I’ve told you before though that I know the singer of HMHB (a recent development, well in the context of my lifetime on this forum anyway). What a great bloke.

Yeah, you did mention it. He's absolutely staunch, as one understands.

Hugely, hugely clever guy too; humour in music is really tricky to pull off without tipping over into being a comedy performer who happens to use musical numbers, but our Nigel successfully walks that tightrope.

Next time you see him please ask him what appeals so much about Chatteris? Always wondered why a chap from the Wirral wrote a paean to a town that is, frankly, the hair in the boil of the arsehole of the fens.

Does he actually own Joy Division Oven Gloves? This is a current theme in my household as my eldest daughter is planning on getting a set thanks to the HMHB song.

I shall try and find out sir
