Quick geography lesson:

Tranmere is on The Wirral and they aren't scousers.

But they are known, are they not, as the third scouse team? Also, as far as I'm concerned people in the following areas are classed as scousers:

Liverpool
Everton
Anywhere that includes the words 'The Wirral' or 'Merseyside' in the address

Also people with that annoying accent...

People from Tranmere are scousers. I've got a mate from Tranmere and he calls himself a scouser.

Do Tranmere not have a song that goes along the lines of "We're not scousers, we're from Birkenhead..."

But we all know it's generalisation and stereotyping - which is ok as long as no malice is intended. You could say that Londoners rape, shoot and get away with it, well the Krays and the Richardsons did.

I know someone who broke down on the motorway near Liverpool, went to get help and when he got back the wheels had been nicked. Had to wait a while for it to be moved, came back and it had been torched... Doesn't mean they're all like that, but it's quite fun to take the piss out of them anyway.

I'll stop now cos I don't think I've argued this very well.

That's irony for you.
