OMFG THE WAY HE COMPLAINS ABOUT TIME WASTING AHAHHAAHAH your keeper went down with CRAMP in the league

Outplayed, you are also responsible to using dirty tactics, got what you deserve outclassed let us face it. This manager is a moaning git, Mark you get them to foul and play act so it is your fault. Tranmere totally outclassed you.

Stop whinging Cooper and deal with it we were the better team . I feel sorry for FGR fans listening to the whining after every defeat

[danhanmer]

We outplayed you in every part of the pitch & your goal was a major goalkeeping error. Glad Norwood silenced your crowd & most of the referees decisions were spot on. That comment about not wanting the little team in the final made me laugh too, you will always be a little team. Wembley awaits!!

That horrible little man is always moaning, no credit what so ever for trfc for completely shutting use out both games yet we still create chances. Everything he says is fake, like the amazing support of the 300 away fans at prenton Park in the first leg 😂 we turned up 1000+ on a Monday night!

Understandable that Cooper is feeling it immediately after losing out on the final and promotion, tough going out so close. Better luck next season. From a Tranmere diehard.

Sour? Tranmere played better gotta give them credit

[Irving.Monster]

Tranmere were the better side tonight we just don't create enough chances to score

[trfctrfc]

Please show me at what stage were you getting on top?! Prat

[joeycressers]

Horrible little man. Goes on about how unfair it is yet his team have been cheats every other time they have played us...in the NL Play off final his players were so unsporting that when one of their players should've kicked the ball back to our goalie after one of their players was injured..what does he do? Kicks it out for a throw in and into row Z. What goes around comes around Mark! We could've been out of sight in the 1st half of that 2nd leg. The red cards were your own team's fault. Silly kick out in the first leg and then a silly challenge for the 2nd booking in the 2nd leg. Suck it up!

He’ll be embarrassed when he watches this one back. Some of his accusations and the stuff he is hinting at are just ludicrous

[cxsmeticzz]

This guy never compliments his opponents always moaning, an he said the two legs they had harsh decisions against them? Does he forget what happened when they beat us at Wembley in 2017 time wasting, an more you can’t call us cheats an shit when you guys are the worst for it...

[eduardotrevino]

The next year Forest Green will be promoted 💚🦁

[duncanbirss]

Ahh poor mark !!!! Give them a rematch

[deafflylii]

Sorry but your players are dirty and stupid, constantly attacking the ref and fouling leads to pissing the ref off.
