Tranmere angry with Little effort Little faces a showdown with the Tranmere board Brian Little's position at Tranmere is under threat after the club's board asked for a meeting with the manager. Tranmere lie fourth from bottom in League One and were knocked out in the first rounds of the League and FA Cup. "Unlike some other club, we have the financial stability and money to spend," chairman Lorraine Rogers told the club website. "We are under-performing and it can't be allowed to continue. We will be meeting with Brian to discuss this." Rogers added: "There can't be many clubs where week after week the board is encouraging the manager to strengthen the squad. "Usually it's the other way but in this case the board has wanted to invest in the squad for the last few months. It's very frustrating."
