Ask yourselves this question: what sort of absolute dunce would give a headless chicken a 3 year deal?

…and I bet Charlie will achieve more as a coach than Cheesly.

…the new Lambert, or Charles, etc? Your opinions?

Read a post earlier that was a sustained metaphor based on a nautical theme. Quite apter, I thought, for a seaside club. Which leads me to suggest that as long the current skipper has his hands on the tiller we are doomed to drift around in circles. Anyone who is happy with this has no real clue...

Circa 2009, never worn or washed, Large, Black (see images attached). £5 + £4.50 recorded delivery.

What’s the exact purpose of a Sporting director? Wouldn’t it be much clearer and practically cohesive to have (a) a Head of Recruitment & Scouting, and (b) a Head of Coaching a.k.a. Director of Football on the board? The duties of the former are obvious. The duties of the latter would suit a...

The right stuff. You’ve either got it, or you haven’t. The likes of Busby, Mercer, Shankly and Stein all had it. So did the great helmsmen of Bloomfield, in the shape of Smith, Mortensen and Ayre. It’s a fine blend of experience and intuition, confidence and dedication, honesty and passion. All...

…the young centre back from Ireland? Hadn’t we agreed terms with the player? Are we again struggling to complete a signing? Why the rumours of interest in a young Irish striker when we appear to have become inept in our transfer dealings? Looking back, how were we able to snap up the likes of...

As has already been noted on this board, every effort should be made to keep Jerry at the club! Whatever other incomings may be required to rebuild, scoring lots of goals is the only way to secure promotion. As well as Jerry, I also think a fully fit Shane L could be a handful in League 1. All...

1. Why not rest regular key players today, e.g. Ekpiteta, Husband and Anderson? At present, Anderson, in particular, is someone we can ill afford to lose to injury. (Instead, we should have started with Casey, Garbutt and Mitchell (Mariette, even). If they're not good enough to feature from the...

Just a note to say that in spite of whatever an individual's opinion may be on 'taking the knee', I trust that any Blackpool supporter attending this evening's 2nd leg match will refrain from booing. Nothing at all should be done on our (partially) collective return to mar the atmosphere and...

Diverse estimations of the Head Coach have been rumbling on all season. As we approach season's end, it's clear to me that while Critch's (obvious) forte is player on player coaching, his flaws are all about indecisiveness, i.e. not being sure about or having confidence in altering the...

What happens to one's iFollow match day payment when a game is postponed? Does the fee paid (a) roll over to the club's next televised league game, or (b) remain valid for the eventually rearranged fixture? If the answer is (b) does the customer simply pay again as usual for the next televised...

Our woes 1. At the present time, Critchley appears incapable of learning. (Generally in nature that which fails to progressively adapt ultimately perishes). Following Husband's previous debacle, picking him at LCB again, and over Ballard, was an amateurish and costly decision. 2. At the...

Taken together, a number of fans on this forum have already correctly identified our current problems and likewise suggested some reasonable solutions. Personally speaking, I can't help wondering why a rookie manager wasn't teamed up with a seasoned sidekick à la Grayson and Parkes (?) - it...

Forum members have rightly been saying for weeks how we need to bolster our centre of defence. It's obviously the primary weakness in the team and the problem should have been redressed weeks ago. We simply cannot defend a corner or the odd decent cross. Ekpiteta is still learning though he'll...
