Rumbelows Cup 2nd round second leg action from tonight in 1991: Here’s Tranmere Rovers beating Chelsea 3-1 at Prenton Park, going through 4-2 on aggregate. And the Blues were not fans of John Aldridge’s famous penalty technique…

It’s Dave Challinor’s birthday today. Former Tranmere Rovers defender and one-time world record holder for the longest ever football throw-in. At the turn of the century, there was nothing but chaos whenever he had the ball in his hands…

ON THIS DAY, 1991: Newcastle United played in a 12-goal madness. 🤯 Tranmere Rovers 6–6 Newcastle United. Yes, 6–6 — and that was after 120 minutes. Mick Quinn completed a hat-trick for the Magpies, while Gavin Peacock scored twice and Lee Clark also found the net. Newcastle led, trailed, levelled and then looked to have won it when Quinn made it 6–5 from the penalty spot in the 118th minute. Then, somehow, Tranmere equalised with a 124th-minute penalty. The shootout was calmer: Tranmere won 3–2 after Quinn hit the post and Eric Nixon saved from Clark and Liam O’Brien. One of the most chaotic nights in Newcastle history. (NUFC) How on earth did this finish 6–6? 😂 #NUFC #NewcastleUnited #TranmereRovers #OnThisDay #FootballHistory

OTD 1994 Wrexham 0-1 Tranmere Rovers Isle of Man Festival FINAL 32 years ago today, defeat in the final to Tranmere in our regular summer visit to the Isle of Man. We were the current holders of the trophy but lost out to a single Kenny Irons goal in front of 1,500 fans. The photo shows a disappointed Tony Humes, Mike Lake and Mark Cartwright after the game. Wrexham would go on to finish in 13th place in League One that season, whilst TRFC reached the Championship playoffs.
