Tranmere story
Ralph Gubbins was an Ellesmere Port-born inside forward who played for Tranmere Rovers from 1961 to 1964.
He began his Football League career at Bolton Wanderers. Deputising for the injured Nat Lofthouse, Gubbins scored both Bolton goals in their 1958 FA Cup semi-final victory over Blackburn Rovers. Lofthouse returned for the final, which Bolton won. After a spell with Hull City, Gubbins joined Tranmere in early 1961 and remained at Prenton Park through the 1963–64 season. He later played for Wigan Athletic before ending his playing career.
