Your chance to vote for your Tranmere Man of the Match from this afternoon's 3-2 home win agaisnt Lincoln City in in the National League.....  

Following this afternoon's highly entertaining and in the end deserved 3-2 home win over Lincoln City in the National League, we are asking you to vote for you Tranmere Man of the Match from the game as part of our post-match poll series.

Tranmere had the better of the game on the whole and took the lead when Jeff Hughes' effort on goal was blocked by the hand of Lincoln defender Bradley Wood who was subsequently sent off just before James Norwood dispatched the penalty into the bottom corner despite Paul Farman in the Lincoln goal diving the right way.

Just three minutes later some poor defending by Rovers saw George Maris score one of the easiest headers you'll ever see as the back line switched off but there was still time for Rovers to re-take the lead before half-time as Jake Kirby slotted home after some good build-up work by the home side.

The second half was all Rovers in the first period of it as they missed three glorious opportunities to make it 3-1 with each chance involving at least two if not more chances to put the ball in with Jake Kirby guilty of two of those misses.  Despite Rovers' clear dominance though it was the visitors who eventually scored next after more poor Rovers defending allowed Robbie McDaid to head home.

After drawing level, it was the Imps who had a good spell in the game which brought a super save out of Scott Davies but just when it looked like Lincoln would go home with a point, Rovers struck late after more great build-up play and Mekki's effort deflected in to make it 3-2 to Rovers!

To vote for your Man of the Match from the game simply vote on the poll on THIS LINK whilst the results will be published here in the next 48 hours.

Once again can't argue with McNulty winning the Sponsor's award but for me Hughes was fantastic today so I went for him.

Thought Taylor-Fletcher was also worthy of mention though!

I agree with you about hughes deadly, thought he had a very good game. thought Kirby played well until he got subbed. not sure I can agree with u about GTF but we all see things differently I suppose. mcnulty looks solid and dependable at the back. I thought harris was the boy wonder signing at the start of the season but didn't really see much flair in him today, more workmanlike really. I will go for Kirby as my MOM today.

Davies, for that save, could be a big save at then of the season. Dint think McNulty was MOM today, below his usual standards and caught out of posistion a couple of times including the goals.

Thought Ihiekwe and McNulty did good centre backs jobs today both winning nearly every header between them . GTF made some decent runs , lay offs . But I'd go for Kirby . Determined , covered the pitch and got a goal .

regarding taylor fletchers performance yday, there were a few nice lay offs and his awareness n reading of the game is not really in question but with his wealth of experience i expected more from him with the ball.
