Blackpool v Middlesborough Official Matchnight Thread 29.12.21

Yes looks like 5-3-2. A very stodgy looking line up. I don’t blame him to be fair. Not much wriggle room with what he has left available.
Just got to get through this I guess.
0-0 probably a good result, and a lot will depend on how the central midfield and ‘wing backs 🙄” hold up.

COYMP.
 
We might in Critch trust ..but I would rather try and bloody win ..with at least a semi attacking line up ..than another negative" backs against the wall" display.
 
I was hoping never to see Connolly in central midfield again but it is a desperate situation. Good luck!
 
I was going to predict my first ever Mighty Pool defeat, but after seeing the team, it's going to be a 2-1 win, like Sunday was heading towards.
 
I'm ok with Connolly. I just feel a back five sends the wrong message. Let's hope the full/wing backs do the biz and we don't end up camped 🤞🧡
 
That's horrible, what a defensive line up! Connolly.... Jeez and Bowler , Mitchell and CJ on the bench.

I am gobsmacked and would never have guessed that never mind pick it. Oh well, let's see if he has a cunning plan for victory.. I take it TJJ was the player with Covid? That means we will never see him in a tangerine shirt again.
 
I guess the plan is to stay in the game, then unleash Bowler & Lavery (& maybe Hamilton) later on. God knows what we do if we concede early.
 
That’s either his worst starting 11 since he’s been at the club, or inspired.

And he better not blame Covid / injuries/ suspensions.

Suppose we will find out soon enough… but I can’t see us scoring until subs arrive 😕
 
Fantastic lineup, lateral thinking by Critch, opposition baffled, the machine holding up and laying off to Jerry and Keshi. Utmp.
 
Amazing what a few wins does, a few smoggies giving it large outside the ground like they're a big team or something 🤣🤣🤣
 
Holy shit! I can't imagine The formation. 6-2-2?!

BBC thinks...

There defenders are playing really well, making some great tackles. We aren't playing too bad but you can't help thinking if Boro get a goal we will collapse.
