Loan watch
12th January
Alan Tate featured for the full 90 minutes as he helped Crewe lift themselves out of the League One relegation zone.
The defender, who has returned to the club for a second loan spell, was named in Steve Davis' starting XI as Crewe beat managerless Gillingham 3-1.
The victory moved Crewe up to 19th - a point ahead of the fourth-bottom Gills - and they will be looking to make it five unbeaten when they visit Notts County on Saturday.
Rory Donnelly made his Tranmere debut by coming off the bench in a 0-0 draw at Morecambe.
The 22-year-old striker was introduced just past the half-hour mark following an injury to Marc Holness.
Micky Adams' side, currently second bottom in League Two, are a point off safety although they have a game in hand.
Next up for Tranmere is a home fixture with Accrington Stanley on Saturday.
