Blackpool v Oxford Official Matchday Thread 10.02.24

Shore it up at the back, reduce the attacking options and hope to score from a set piece. Certain play off place on the cards.
 
Coming up on the Friday, hopefully the snow forecast isn't as bad as the MET fear, we've had some rain down here and more to come, if the game was being played down here I'd put it in doubt, hopefully your ground staff are on the ball and prepare for any scenario, not sure of the condition of your pitch, any worries your end that the game could be in doubt? Cheers.
 
We could do with a good performance & a win of course. As for Mr Fishy I'd use it as motivation for us.

We never get much snow as we are on the gold coast. Temperature on Friday / Saturday around seven degrees. No danger.

So frustrating results going for us but just can’t capitalise! I’m still optimistic we’ll put a good run together at some point with this squad. Just hope it’s in time 👀

It’s my fault for starting to look up at the table thinking if we get 3 points here & another 3 points on Saturday we may start to close the gap. But with the games left we’ve more than a good chance of making the playoffs & other teams will drop points. We’re all too impatient.

Weather forecast here for Saturday is 21&sunny. Bring your shorts & shades. Don’t bother a coat, it will only be a hinderance. Tell all your mates!
 
Travelling a couple of hours to get to bloomers as I want to support the team but deep down I think we'll get a battering

I hope I'm wrong and Critch finally puts down his Soduku and watches the game but I can't see it
 
Stevenage losing midweek has given us an outside chance of playoffs.

100% must win today, come on u Pool big performance required!! 🍊

So we're going to gain points and the teams above are going to drop points🤣🤣🤣
I've got some snake oil for sale if you want some, cures all ills😁👍🏻

We also need to be looking over our shoulders at Orient, they are the form horses and could well make the play-offs

Maybe they've peaked too early and will fade.
Do they not realise its the last 10 games of the season in this division that counts 😉
 
Our season ended at Stevenage last week, Critchley may as well just take the handbrake off and go all out attack. Fuck it, nothing left to lose now

Absolutely. As long as we don’t drop as many we’ll get into the playoffs. I’ll just stick to medicinal compound 😂
 
Bookies have us at 4/5, Oxford 3/1, draw 13/5. IMO they could all be the same odds. Any result seems equally possible. COYP.
 
Please play 4 at the back. Defend well and go all out for a win.
Put together a winning streak and it's all to play for.
However - I bet Critch goes with a back 3 with wing backs ... and I bet he starts CJ.
Hope I'm eating humble pie later.

If only. Boycotting today because fed up of this 3 at the back nonsense.

Boycotts are usually mass participatory events aimed at drawing the attention of the party you're boycotting. With the best will in the world your solo effort won't cause the club to even Blink an eye.

Not asking the club to blink an eye. Just makes me feel better. Can't keep spending money watching this 3-5-2 nonsense.
 
No Connolly at alll, there is a god! No Carey either.

I hope Lavery doesn't run down his blind alleys, I would have preferred Kouassi. It's difficult to drop Norburn or Dembele to be fair in regards Byers
