    Blackpool's Best Ever Signing

    So you've never heard of 'The Mathews Final' then? He was the nest player of his generation without a doubt. His appearances at other clubs put thousands on the gate many times.

    800 plus

    Do other European coutries, who these immigrants have passed through, not notice them. They probably say, 'We're going to England so won't be in your country for long. 'Oh, that's OK then, well take you to the border'. .'

    City's punishment

    Why have they singled out just a couple of teams for this 'unlawful act'? I woul;d think that many Prem teams have done the same, or similar. Just not been caught. Yet.

    Moscow now

    I can't think what the Russian people are doing/thinking. Why, on earth, didn't many of them decide to ruin their ballot papers, or just throw them away? What would Putin have done if no one had voted? He couldn't put them all in jail. He is as evil as Hitler. He probably thought that Hitler had...

    Inflation falls again

    So...

    How much lacquer does Trump put on his hair, if it really is his own hair? It never moves when he shakes his head. Just like his every word, false?

    Which league level are our players…

    I just hope none of the players read this thread. It might change their whole approach to BFC and Fans.

    Do any of the players or management team actually live in Blackpool?

    I remember when all, most. Pool players lived in Blackpool. Stan Morty on North Park Drive. Stan Matthews on St Annes Rd. George Farm on Goodwood Ave. Can't remember all the rest but took Telegrams to most at some time or other. Of course Harry Johnston had his paper shop on Central Drive, but...
