Welcome and good luck Dan.
Thanks for placing your career in our hands. It's a huge step to leave the Hillbillies, who have an excellent development setup & a good manager, who as a mentor & role model, was one of the world's best defenders.

Looking good this. However, whilst Critch places faith in youngsters developed by Burnley and Southampton, Blackpool youngsters just seem to get shown the door.

I agree & it's frustrating to see.
It must be testing the patience of Eards & Dobbs, after all what's it saying about their contribution and 'end products'?

Not many things make me laugh in life but that did.
Do we take it the lad from Burnlee has signed and we have no further interest in lad from Wycombe?

No Blackpool youngsters (apart from Apter) would be good enough.
Our academy is light years behind where it should be which is why Critch is so reluctant. It's gotten better, but not there yet.

Sadly, I agree, as I don’t think that Eardley and Dobbie have had enough time to fully develop youth potential yet enough to be able to take the step up.
It’s a massive leap up to senior football and signings like Sassi are slightly more ‘ready made’.
SS said when he bought the club that he wanted the correct structure at the club.
New training facilities in the pipeline and purchasing seemingly decent quality youngsters like Sassi and Finnigan seem the right way forward. Whether that includes here and now, time will tell.
I seem to recall that our development teams perform well in the various leagues (it is difficult to find tables etc... on our youth teams) so we must have fairly decent youngsters. Whether Apter, Holmes, Mariette et al make the grade gawd knows.
Good luck Dan. Make us proud.
