Gary Bowyer on the cup game against Derby just over a couple of weeks ago. We looked so comfortable in that game against a virtually full strength Derby side it's hard to come to terms with the shambles of yesterday.

Fits the profile of a young forward thinking manager. Doing a great job at Plymouth. From the North West and with local connections maybe could be persuaded but Plymouth would have other ideas.

Positivity abounds! Good interview from Sean with George Elek the podcaster from Colin Murray's EFL Show. Appleton is obviously highly regarded within the game including PL managers who are happy to entrust him with the development of young players...

https://forums.vitalfootball.co.uk/threads/michael-appleton-new-job.125059/ Mostly appreciation for his time at Lincoln and wishing him well at Blackpool. Can't be much fairer than that.

Will there be one for the Forest game tonight?

KO 12.00. A draw would suit us nicely.

Are we getting one tonight? Review (Cardiff) / Preview ( QPR).

Mentioned in passing on an unrelated thread by one of our Irish posters a couple of weeks ago. A 23 year old free scoring Central midfielder currently playing for Shamrock Rovers in the Irish league. It was reported that he might be going to Celtic in this window but so far that hasn't happened...

Not sure if anything official has been mentioned on this but when the games postponed due to covid in the weeks leading up to Christmas are rescheduled, should the Clubs affected be allowed to include players signed in the January window who wouldn't have been available to them at the time of...

https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/exclusive-blackpool-ready-to-sanction-transfer-deal-as-player-impresses-critchley/ Happy to see this. I've seen enough to convince me he's a good 'un. In the short time he was on last night he looked lively with some nice passes and a determination to take on...

Good preview of today's game from Wales On Line. "Blackpool's approach to away games has been terrifyingly effective." https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/something-give-swansea-city-feel-22211014

...against unspecified opposition. I think it was scheduled for yesterday to give some of the squad game time. Gabriel was one name mentioned to participate as was Joe Nuttall. Did anyone on here get to know the outcome. Apologies if it's already been posted.

A very decent and well balanced analysis giving due credit to us and (in one of the comments) acknowledging the 12th man affect from the fans. https://hammyend.com/index.php/2021/09/what-went-wrong-for-fulham-at-bloomfield-road/

Through to the last 16 in the US Tennis Open playing Selby Rogers....Live on Prime from 7pm tonight. If she gets anywhere near the level she reached in the last round it could be a great watch.

https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/stanley-matthews.1556714/ Just found this on the Sunderland RTG forum. Well worth a watch for anyone who missed it when it was first released.

I came across this podcast on YouTube which may be of interest to some. A profile on Neil Critchley by Mike Holden and Jack Critchley (sports and betting journo...no relation). A pretty shrewd and insightful analysis on NC and what is happening here imo. The podcast was obviously done just as...

..according to Alan Nixon. https://the72.co.uk/237478/sunderland-transfer-rumour-blackpool-keen-on-22-y-o-whos-unlikely-to-extend-stay-with-black-cats/

A tough call for Critch if one of them misses out in the starting 11. He may play both with Husband at LB and Garbutt further forward but either Embleton or Mitchell would then have to start on the bench.

From the lad that had the melt down a few weeks ago after Sunderland had lost to Wigan. A predictable outcome but without any great conviction and clearly aware of the Blackpool threat. He also confirms that he lives locally as someone posted on here previously.
