Youngsters surrender lead again to be shaken by defeat to Bury
Oct 4 2007 by Nick Hilton, Liverpool Daily Post
YOUTH COACH Shaun Garnett admits the learning process is moving slowly for Tranmere under-19s.
Rovers were beaten 2-1 by Bury in the Youth Alliance Northwest Conference fixture at Lower Gigg Lane.
And once again Tranmere’s young line-up surrendered a lead. They were ahead on 17 minutes through Joel Richardson’s goal but allowed the Shakers to take the points with second-half goals on 52 and 83 minutes.
Garnett said: “We’ve lost the lead on half a dozen occasions this season.
“The lads played some decent football on Saturday and I felt they deserved to get something out of the game.
“But they need to be stronger mentally as well as physically.
“They have a lot to learn and they are improving only slowly.”
Tranmere play host to Shrewsbury Town in an Alliance fixture at Raby Vale on Saturday morning, kick-off 11am.
