1 we all unite behind simon sadler and critchley
2 we sign a big goalkeeper to give real competition to grimshaw
3 we sign at least 3 tall players cf cb plus another
4 we name the new east stand in billy eyres memory
5 we bring in good coaching support for critchley dont believe it needs to...
we are down lets accept it
just shows how critchley overachieved we should welcome him back with open arms
lets learn lessons and get on with planning for next season
our management appointments have not been good
incoming players not good
by the time we got a squad to play appleton way he was...
a fan but also a businessman
his vision is and was to make bfc self sufficient
he wants to be supportive to his managers but think since he has been the owner how much money has been wasted where we have spent money
nuttall hardie dale etc not his fault poor recruitment
maybe only jerry yates...
for first time for a while we have the personnel to play different systems
will be able to have a strong bench
now got creativity in numbers
a proper right back
players who were struggling back in form likes of hamilton lavery
jerry yates scoring again
choices everywhere if we got a good cb...
1 permanent signings namely dom thompson andcallum wright not good so far
dont see how dom thomson is viewed as better than reece james and callum wright re matt virtue
liam bridicut injured
2 loan signings
carlie patino started very well but has struggled of late needs an experienced pro...
in some ways i feel sorry for him
he sounded and looked a broken man in post match interviews
he was not a popular choice but he could have overcome that
one of his major problems is he is either too honest or simply not positive enough
he is not a good communicator
he doesnt quite get the fans...
simon sadler has put a lot of money and his time into the club
he has never claimed we are going for instant success
he is trying to build for the future
new training ground
new east stand
new director of football
development squad
people with blackpool dna running our youth football
yes first...
connelly
thornlie
carey
dougall
madine
yates
playing worse
big marv but he will come good
loan signings better this year as well
well done michael appleton
positives
more attractive to watch
more chances being created
better balance to the team
more midfield alternatives
good youngsters out on loan
more decisive substitutions
got jerry yates firing with continuity ie starting more
more even league at top less good at bottom no real bad teams...
he gets sent of because a thug masquerading as a goalkeeper wrestled him to the ground
dont know what happened with ref
he actually had a good first half
his performance was bizzare/shocking
his assistants were woeful as well
performances like his can cause people to lose jobs
everyone should calm down
we have an owner we trust and a experienced chief executive
we have lost one person not 11 players
we are not suicide jockeys live within our means
far better to take an extra week on recruiting new head coach than getting a wrong one
clearly anyone in football knows...
richard keogh for manager with an experienced number 2 thommo
bring ciaran donnelly into senior management team as well
get keith southern to head up academy
keeps some continuity
consistent approach
builds momentum
fine tune not rebuild is needed
same again
if so promotion to premier league next season
neil critchley did a superb job just as grayson did
it takes a special manager to take this on
in ben mansford and simon sadler they will get right person in
could have been worse re timing
lets not look to past but to future
lets show...
i know nothing about ukraine football
can we not adopt a local ukraine football team not the biggest not the smallest
we need to show moral support plus anything we can really do to help
tomorrow can we not do a chant for ukraine
the ukraine people have shown so much courage dignity
we must...
no ego
gets the history
knows how to get fans going
developer
great communicator
attention to detail
always has a plan b
tactical genius
likeable
gives praise to owners chief executive
surrrounds himself with good people

lets no kid ourselves sheffiled united are a good team
like fulham and bournemouth they will be in teams chasing promotion

when players come in they never let critch down...
fantastic coach he improves everyone including us fans
team so flexible so quick to learn trustowthy likeable
