Another awful negative performance against a bottom half team yesterday, leading to mass frustration from the fans. It's so annoying watching Blackpool at the moment as not only is it boring to watch, it's frustrating, as the approach, especially away from home, has cost us so many points...

I am hoping that Critchley is becoming a lucky manager. well he's had a couple of big pay-offs then got his old job back :) I think he may eventually have stumbled across his best team just in time for a play off run, despite his eternal meddling. The team that finished the game is nearly IMHO...

I was just watching Hibs v Villa (on BBC I Player for those who want to watch), and they asked the question of 5 players who played for Hibs who have won the European Cup, and it got me thinking of a similar question for Blackpool players. How many players who have played for Blackpool have won...

I think it has been mentioned on other threads, so apologies if I'm repeating anything. However, I think a big reset is needed over the summer, and to me, as well as the obvious need to sort out a permanent manager, I think we should also do a review of 3 or 4 key areas. 1. Recruitment - Stop...

I am so sick of Blackpool effectively abstaining from cup competitions. I was 60 this year and I have never experienced anything like a good cup run in my time. 3 games into the season and we play a weakened side against a fourth division team, Why cant we put a good team out, get a couple up...

Firstly, like most I am delighted where we have got to, and I love Neil Critchley and what he ha done for us as a team, and as a football club. Giving us back our pride in our team However, he is not above criticism, and Saturday, but even more so today he and the team need to accept that this...

I am hoping to get over to Fuengirola in Spain for a couple of weeks for some winter sun. Any help/hints/tips on bars to go (esp for the match on Saturday and next couple of weeks), good places to eat/drink, any good nights out - quiz nights etc. Day trips out (hiring a car/ Also taking the...

After that performance, and several this season, the whole team should spend at least 3 days next week practising crossing and finishing. I'm sick of seeing our crosses not get past the first man, and sick of seeing all of our team unable to be composed at finishing. Laverty and Hamilton's...

It was my 60th birthday yesterday and my wife and my mates arranged for us all to go in the corporate lounge for the pre-match meal and the game. I had a brilliant day. I must commend Martin Booker and all the staff for their brilliant service all day. They arranged for my massive cake to be...

A weird game for me yesterday. I don't know if others have days like this, but I seemed to be in a bad mood, and had a downer on the team right from the off, and was moaning for fun. I don't know if its because I knew that it was, to me, the most important game of the season so far, or that I...

Pretty depressing at the mo watching us. We seem to set up so cautious, trying to keep it tight for as long as we can. It's so so boring, AND it isn't working. Crunch match next Saturday now. Lose that and we are definitely in a relegation battle. We desperately need some firepower in January...

Yes I know we need perspective, and we have done brilliantly to be where we are, Crtichley is ace, the club is going in the right direction etc etc etc, BUT..... The last few games have been very worrying. We reallly look low on confidence and don't really look like scoring many. I would pick...

I see that Lionel Messi has won the ballon d'or. Now I am one of his biggest fans and he has had a sensational career, but I don't think he deserves it this year. He hasn't really done much has he? Lewandowski must be a bit miffed, and less glamorous players like Kante who helped Chelsea win...

Cant help thinking we have thrown 3 points away today. We were miles the better side but cant score at the mo. We all love Critch, but I cant understand his preferring of Madine to Yates/Lavery. TWo blanks on the trot with Madine up front, who, to me, offers very little. I would love to see him...

After all the trouble recently, I got there early and parked in the car park outside the West Stand, so didnt get caught as usual. How was the policing, and how easy was it to get away last night following the WBA fans all exiting via the NE corner. I must say it looked odd as they all walked in...

Yet another disappointing end to our involvement in a cup competition. Why can't we ever have a cup run in either the League cup or FA Cup. I'm 60 in a few months, and have watched Blackpool since 1966, and I have never seen us reach a quarter final in either of these competitions. In that time...

I don't often go overboard about England, but I believe that tonight was our best performance for a generation. I know Ukraine were poor, but to be so dominant in a quarter final of a major tournament was so so impressive. Remember Cameroon, Sweden or Spain, our recent 3 quarter finals/ We just...

Firstly a massive well done to the Critch & the team for a fantastic achievement in reaching the play-offs. Let's hope we do it, but if we don't I think we have the basis for automatic next year. If we are allowed fans back in for the play-off semi, I thin k that it would be a great gesture for...

Anyone have any idea of who the high life jet setter is who arrived in Blackpool on Saturday. Nothing to do with the star wars filming apparently, so it obviously must be a world class footballer coming to sign on the dotted line https://t.co/KvKoMj98hM?amp=1

I thought that some of our players looked a little tired and jaded last night. This got me on to thinking about the play-offs and which teams will be fresher and/or which will be more tired. despite last night. I still think that the depth of our squad could be a blessing for us if/when we get...
