Edds and Moore on the mark for Rovers

Tranmere moved above Stockport in the top-half of the League One table following a 2-1 win at Prenton Park. Stockport were constantly on the back foot and the home side had the better of a poor first-half, with Gareth Edds and Ian Moore's penalty both finding the net in the second half for Tranmere. Michael Raynes scored a late consolation for the away side in stoppage time but it was too little, too late. With 57 minutes gone Edds gave Tranmere a deserved lead when he headed in from Chris Shuker's corner. Rovers continued to dominate and added a second in injury-time when Moore was brought down by substitute Greg Tansey and the striker dusted himself off to score the resulting penalty. Moments later a Tommy Rowe corner resulted in a goalmouth scramble and Michael Raynes pounced to grab a consolation for County.
