Very positive report on Blackpool Community Trust 👍

That first goal yesterday was a thing of beauty. If you get a chance, watch it again on the full re-run. The build up play lasted a full minute. It started with Dale and finished with Dale. I counted an incredible 23 individual involvements. The way we probed and switched play during the move...

That's what we will be saying to Pompey after the game next Saturday! I expect us to do a job on them. I think it has all been coming together over the last few weeks. That performance today has been brewing for a while now. Now we need to sustain it. I reckon we will. We have a stronger squad...

Sometimes in football you can stumble on the magic formula, in terms of personnel and tactics, and I think that happened for us against Fleetwood. I think it may have been the first time Carey and Dembele have played together and I think we can all agree that it definitely worked a treat. Lavery...

I thought our opening goal last night was absolutely fantastic. If you get a chance watch the full build up. The limited highlights don't do it justice, but the extended highlights (when available) should hopefully show it all. The way we worked the ball out of defence and then upfield was...

I thought he did well today when he came on. He upped the tempo from deep and gave us far more direction and penetration. He was getting players to commit by carrying the ball forward out of defence and that freed up space on the outside. Maybe he has finally found his role in the team and it...

He showed more talent and creativity in the 10-15 mis he was on than we saw from the all the other players on the pitch (on both sides) added together! Some of his passes were Messi like and his ability to unlock defences cannot be left on the bench. He looks way to good for this level and must...

Three wins from our last four games will definitely be enough to keep us up, given that QPR and Reading are hardly picking up any points at all. QPR have taken 1 point from their last 6 games. Reading haven't won in their last 9 games and have taken just 4 points from their last 6. There are...

* 4 wins in our last 7 will be enough to stay up * That equals 47 points * 4 of our last 7 games are at home * The best chance of 4 wins would most likely be: Cardiff, Wigan, Birmingham (away) and Millwall * Get the 4 wins and we will be in 7th heaven 👍

I believe we are unbeaten at home this year with three wins and four draws. One of these wins was vs forest in the cup, but the key point is that we are now becoming very hard to beat at home. With four of our next six at home, if we can maintain our current home momentum then it could get us...

Quitchley is the first QPR manager to win just one of his first 12 games in charge since Ian Holloway in 2000-01 (won 1 of his first 13) – QPR were relegated at the end of that season. They are on the slide big style and are bottom of the form table. and haven't won (league or cup) since beating...

I've been a big critic of Maxwell, but I'm delighted to have been proved wrong today. He had one of his best games in a Blackpool shirt. He commanded his box much better than usual (MM influence perhaps?) and made a couple of top draw saves. On today's evidence he deserves the shirt. Let's hope...

So they are 2nd in the table and heading back to the premiership, but are currently operating under a transfer embargo having not settled a debt to another club on time. Is it just me thinking that the punishment here doesn't fit the crime? It should surely be an automatic points deduction...

So is Mick McCarthy the most high profile manager we have had in terms of his achievements as a manager (before joining us)? Allardyce went on to become a high profile manager, but as his first job was with us, he hadn't achieved anything beforehand. Any other contenders that anyone can think of?

Where do we expect to see the biggest improvement? I think MM is experienced enough to give us a boost in a number of key areas... * Organisation - so we actually play like a team rather than a bunch of individuals. This will involve playing players in their appropriate positions amongst other...

I wonder if the powers that be at Arsenal, City, Liverpool, Leeds etc will be watching closely who we appoint as our next manager. If the style of football isn't to their liking then they could press the recall button....

I think we need a thread on an upgrade on the current version of the Poveda chant. Post your ideas on here. To get the ball rolling, how about something along the lines of the following? Lyrics need some work but could be the basis of a chant. Feel free to edit. Maybe, the chorus is enough on...

...for the round 3 winners. Not to be sniffed at and more cash to come in round 4. Should help to pay Josh's wages 👍

....we could have lost at home to the bottom of the league team 😂

Observations from today's game.... * first half was absolutely awful * Start of H2 not much better * After 60 mins when Appleton made subs bringing off Yates and Lavery, the fans started chanting 'you don't know what you are doing' * He also went to a 4-4-2 formation from 4-3-3 * These changes...
