Usual comments here.

 

[Walnut]

Chance to bounce back, get back on track, progress in the cup.

 

[Threepeaksphil]

Surely we must win this one but it’s a home midweek game

 

[Alfie Conn]

How will our temperamental little darling players feel about this one playing on a cold Tuesday night and so near Xmas as well?.

 

[ballysboots]

3-2 either way.

 

[bfcpete]

Pity it is not on TV

 

[the_dog]

Pity it is not on TV

Yeah can't go tomorrow and didn't even consider it won't be on TV!

 

[Fylde Seasider]

More about our temperamental manager and whether he decides to park the bus with his silly, negative tactics at home to the mighty Forest Gump?!

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Cup fever

 

[Halifax71]

Yeah can't go tomorrow and didn't even consider it won't be on TV!

Once again, ridiculous. The club has already lost £000's due to FA incompetence and now prevented from recouping even a small part.

 

[Tangerinekiwi]

Will it be available on Tangerine TV International pass?

No TTV does not show FA cup.

 

[DreadPool]

4.0 Blackpool

 

[SouthernSeasider]

wouldn't be the worst if we got knocked out. Focus on the league.

 

[Superbretty]

I think we will win easy enough. Eki should be back and Norburn won’t be playing so there’s two pluses. We should have enough as long as we are positive

Very mild day at the seaside today so that’s one excuse out of the window.

 

[Fylde Seasider]

At least temperatures will be a steady 8C with a breeze/wind making it feel a bit cooler. Not much chance of rain though. Still with the Northampton and Cambridge performances I think the crowd will be low even at reduced prices. 4,000 - 5,000 would be amazing. Could be sub 4k?

 

[Insider]

Not a clue on who will start tonight but I think it will be similar to an EFL Trophy team.
O'Donnell
Casey Eky Tharme
Gabriel Tashan-Boothe Virtue Morgan Thompson
Beesley Joseph.
I can't find a place for Dale or Weir who should be in the mix.
Who have I forgotten?
I think it's 9 on the bench so plenty of options, 6 changes if it goes to extra time.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Let's play a normal formation and see how it goes.

 

[I bleed Tangerine]

I'd like to see Casey, Joseph, Virtue and Gabriel start tonight. Thompson on the left would be good as well and Morgan in MF alongside Virtue would be a decentattacking line up. I just want us to be attacking and really go for it.

 

[Graves]

They’ll be up for it so we can’t afford to be complacent. Our home form is ok, albeit we don’t seem to like Tuesday nights!

Will be interesting to see who starts. I hope we get through.

 

[Beachcomber]

Comforting to know that some of our better players will be available to face the mighty FGR. (Perhaps more of our stars can be rested for the next vital league game instead ). Meanwhile, no doubt our esteemed guru will big up the opposition once again. After all, there’s nothing quite like having a keen psychological edge.

 

[JJpool]

Who picks such poor pictures for the official site?

Not sure Pennington will be over the moon with that one from the match preview. I bet they had loads to choose from too..

Exactly.

Should be a 2nd string, which is why the fixture build up and games in a short time space is bollux. 2nd string at NF if we win.

 

[Curryman]

A great bit of news this morning, my car which I thought would be in dock until after Christmas, clutch trouble, was ready at 10.00 and I will therefore be at the game.COME ON YOU POOL.

Looks like he is doing an Irish jig.

 

[hertfordseasider]

Well, off out soon for a bite to eat in Cambridge and then off to see the Unthanks at the Corn Exchange, really looking forward to it and think I have the best night planned.

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

No TTV does not show FA cup.

I’m pretty sure they do

 

[tangomonkey]

I’m pretty sure they do

Official site says no live streams on TTV

 

[Killingmesoftly]

Home win BTTS 33/20…

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

Official site says no live streams on TTV

Just remembered that the Bromley game was on BBC so yeah perhaps not

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

TTV is saying it’s on on my phone, I’m gonna miss it anyway by the looks of it, another one to watch retrospectively

 

[JOHNMAJORTOM]

SWITCHING on to lancs just now. SEASIDERS 3 . mysterons, vegans klingons 0.

 

[TangerineEggCup]

I'm hoping for a massacre tonight. Only way to redeem Saturday.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Fist pumps tonight. Come on Pool

 

[TangerineEggCup]

First pumps tonight. Come on Pool

Fist pumps? You'd have to be nuts.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Fist pumps? You'd have to be nuts.

You wouldn't put it past Critchley and the fans.

They had to photoshop the naked lady off his lap too.

 

[TangerineArmy]

So bar connelly... who else is starting tonight

 

[Hazi]

O’Donnell
Jordan Pennington Marv Casey Thompson
Weir Morgan KK
Dale Joseph

Gazettes prediction

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

 

[TangerineBayern]

No Kenny not even on the bench!

 

[BFCAleman]

Will that be Connolly left side of back 3

 

[SeasideKurt]

Kenny is gone then. Wish we'd just be honest with what's happening.

Good team anyway, should win with fire power off the bench.

 

[Hazi]

O’Donnell
Gabriel Marv Casey CC Thompson
virtue Morgan
Dale
bees Joseph

 

[TangerineBayern]

Will that be Connolly left side of back 3

No he’s that versatile and gifted hes in goals

 

[Hazi]

Kenny is gone then. Wish we'd just be honest with what's happening.

Good team anyway, should win with fire power off the bench.

Or been given a pre Christmas break as expected to play all the upcoming league games

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

No Kenny. Might as well give up now if he's leaving. Hopefully not true.

Connolly too good to be rested.

 

[Hazi]

Connelly and Thompson combining on the left is a worry
