Blackpool v Charlton Official Matchday Thread 01.02.25

Tough one this given our home form. Having said that, we were much better vs Uddersfield last time out and we’re coming into the game on the back of a good run of results. Tight game but we will prevail.
 
I don't believe in the home form voodoo.
SB & the players are starting to put things together, (no complacency from recent results, we still need a couple of signings) this will motivate the supporters & that will lift the players.
We need to be better at stopping the crosses coming in & closing down quicker in our final 3rd.
Do that & .... 2-1 to the Pool.
 
One things for sure, it’ll be entertaining. I remember watching Jones on touch line when we played Luton… it’s hilarious to watch him get riled.
I can see us doing 2-1 today.
 
If I had to bet a weeks wage ,I would say a 1 all draw but I don't predict a big change on home form and 'pool will finish victors, 3-0
 
ST holders need to show their value too and start creating a better atmosphere at home. Our home form was great when the atmosphere and attendance was high - now that numbers are low and atmosphere is poor it’s no surprise that results have dipped.
Nah it correlates very closely with the pitch. Attacking football with wins will always bring a better atmosphere. That’s normal.
 
We've only lost two home games this season! Both sides are in good form, you'd think a draw is the likeliest outcome. Quite a battle on the cards.
 
One of the first games I remember attending. October 1952. Blackpool 8 Charlton 4. We were 8-1 up with 5 minutes to go. Stanley Matthews scored and Allan Brown a hat=trick. Too much to expect a repeat but you never know
Still recorded as our biggest league win
8-1 would have looked far better than the late capitulation.

Draw is the obvious result, especially considering how many draws we have had at home recently. That’s why I’ve gone with that on the prediction league.
But at some point our home form should improve. Why not today? Feeling like a home win is just around the corner. Could very well be today. Someone is due a thrashing as well.
 
Carey gets the nod over Evans, who I imagine will be subbed on today when the mid get tired.

Bench is starting to look good. Especially with Bees :)
 
Though would be harsh to drop anyone after 2 good away showings.
Evan’s for CJ would have been my change & go slightly more 433
