Blackpool v Doncaster Official Matchnight Thread 04.05.21

As I have £10 each way at 66-1, I'm expecting a third spot end of season. Doncaster are due a defeat against us and Bristol Rovers need a good stuffing to send them home.
I'm my usual, positive and confident state of mind for this campaign.
6 more points coming up for the tangerines.
 
Donny have lost 7 out of their last 9 games, with a very creditable draw against Posh and an away win at Rochdale on Saturday.

We’ll get a draw minimum but I’m gonna say 2-1 win. Yates scoring against his boyhood club

I'm with you on Turton. He wants to get one by the end of the season , I saw him in an interview a couple of weeks back and he said as much, and he's had some half chances recently. I know its unlikely but were in crazy times. He's usually 25/1 to score at any time during a game. That's worth a fiver of anyone's money for the craic. I don't care if it goes in off his arse. 🤣

He averages I think one goal every 60 odd games.....whenever he gets near the opponents box he seems to have a nosebleed ....He may be a "steady eddie" to some.....but I wouldnt count on it.
Now Garbs on the other hand...when he gets near the box...different class......Just saying.
 
2-2 for me (that will make me very happy)I might even invest a San Miguel Especial if it happens 😂.
First goal for me Kai Kai ,if playing 34 min .🤞

Almost exactly the same goals per game ratio as Husband. Unfortunately goal contribution from defenders via set pieces or whatever have been sadly lacking.
 
"Another Party we have ruined" Donny"s managers quote after sending Rochdale down and their 2-2 draw with Peterboro...Im sure they hope to do the same to us and hope our players rise to the challenge and get the job done.

This isn’t a discussion on his usefulness to the team. Purely on his scoring ability, or lack of same.

Yep I realise that!
Hes a RB! Not many RBs score many goals?
How many has Hubby scored as LB, Or Gabriel as RB/RM?
None!

He scored a cracker for Crewe against us.

I’m hoping it will be fine. Haven’t had a game called off since verti drains installed.
Mind you it hasn’t rained either.
 
Donny have nothing to play for, now that can be dangerous in that they could play more freely or just not have that edge knowing it doesn't matter to them. As we don't know which it will be, it would be stupid to approach it any differently than Saturdays game. I believe we now will get the better of Donny tomorrow & put us in an unassailable playoff position. One last heave then a changed side against Barton's latest flops to rest a few before we enter the playoffs.
I'm staying positive 3-1 to us.
 
The lads will be out to avenge the game at their place when we went two nil up and lost 3-2. 😠

Goals from Anderson and Yates, and a clean sheet for our magnificent defence. 🍊🍊
 
What’s everybody’s lineup predictions? With our injuries I can see:

Yates - Simms
Embleton - Dougall - Anderson
Garbutt - Hubby - DB - Ekpi - Turton
Maxwell
