Tranmere Rovers midfielder Ben Tollitt believes that winning the National League title is the desired aim for the team ahead this weekends derby against fellow promotion rivals Wrexham.
The Rovers are on a good run of form having won seven of their last nine league matches and are hot on the heels of their opponents who boast the best defensive record in the division.
Tollitt is confident that Tranmere can continue their fine run of form and secure a return to the Football League.
“The goal this season has always been to win the league and the way the team have been playing, we are catching up those at the top after having a slow start.” Tollitt said.
“So they will be looking over the shoulder because they know we are hitting form.” he added
Looking ahead to the massive mouthwatering tie against Wrexham, Tollitt thinks the team should just treat it like any other game.
“Every game is different, against different teams but really every game should be treated the same. Of course it is a local derby and both sides are fighting high up in the league.”
“Everyone is up for it, and we all know how important the result of it could be.”
“If I am involved then I’ll go into it with a fresh mind, try my best and ultimately, try and help the team get the three points.”
The former Everton Scholar has stated that he can’t think of a better fan base in the National League for the supporters to be so up for every game.
“It is awesome, I don’t think there is many clubs in our league that would take that many fans to an away game.” Tollit said. [getty src="682980980" width="594" height="421" tld="co.uk"]
