Blackpool v Portsmouth Official MatchNight Thread 01.12.20

[TangerineTed]

No Brett on commentary. Colin Greenall

Still looking for his car in Harrogate...

 

[Levi501]

Good plug for the community trust initiative there from his Chizzness.

Yep. Was just going to say the same.

 

[GJJW]

Think I'd take a point now.

 

[TangerineDan]

Sea sea sea side ers!!

 

[TangerineDan]

Portsmouth look to be sitting back and aiming to counter attack here.

 

[hertfordseasider]

Husband and Turton playing well so far.

 

[Pauls_Boutique]

Don't think we do, i know what you mean if we are winning a lot then the odd draw fine, but in the past a lot of draws have killed us.

I’d always rather win 1 lose 1 than draw 2 but I get what you mean. Apart from Ipswich 6 of the 7 defeats have been by 1 goal (i think). Narrow defeats, keep 2 or 3 of them to draws and we would find ourselves in the top half of the league

 

[Mark_GT]

Think I'd take a point now.

Are you saying half a loaf?

 

[62years&counting]

No, you've put his neck on the block!

He picks the team not me or You.

 

[Tangerine Manc]

Pompey unbeaten arnt they away from home , can see why

 

[voyeur]

He picks the team not me or You.

Yes but there's no block outside of your imagination.

 

[thefutureistangerine]

On the early shift today @62years&counting?

 

[Pauls_Boutique]

Pompey unbeaten arnt they away from home , can see why

Yes they look solid defensively.

 

[62years&counting]

Yes but there's no block outside of your imagination.

Unfortunately you've a blockage up top.

 

[voyeur]

Unfortunately you've a blockage up top.

Ha ha.

 

[Mark_GT]

Hmm, back to floaty setpieces. Shame.

 

[clappers]

I think we may struggle to score. Can we keep our own door closed?

 

[Ormergod]

Kaikai been v quiet

 

[TangerinePeel]

Pompey look well drilled defensively but useless as soon as they get in our half

 

[tangerine_neil]

Hmm, back to floaty setpieces. Shame.

If only we had a player like Garbutt

 

[hertfordseasider]

Playing well, but missing Madine in my opinion. Still to be convinced by Robson, Dougall playing really well as are the two full backs. Would like to see more of Anderson, Yates doing okay, Kaikai is being Kaikai and CJ is doing fine.

 

[Tangerine Manc]

Are we missing madine , Yates looks isolated

 

[voyeur]

Playing well, but missing Madine in my opinion. Still to be convinced by Robson, Dougall playing really well as are the two full backs. Would like to see more of Anderson, Yates doing okay, Kaikai is being Kaikai and CJ is doing fine.

Robson playing well IMO.

 

[hertfordseasider]

We are never going to score from a corner are we??

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

Some good crosses coming in but sadly no Madine type to nod them in.

 

[Greggy Lane Lasher]

We are playing like we did early on in the season, no quality with the final ball.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Floaty crappy cross.

 

[poolseasider]

Both teams flooding midfield not for me.

 

[Mark_GT]

I feel like we've been here before. Need to be more direct!

 

[zigire]

We are never going to score from a corner are we??

we scored from one on Saturday

 

[HetzkeBlaster]

For me, we’re not looking enough for Kaikai on the left, everything appears to be through the centre or the right

 

[TANGERINETOWERPOWER]

Keshi working hard with Yates...Kai kai needs to be doing more...much more

 

[voyeur]

Some good crosses coming in but sadly no Madine type to nod them in.

When did Madine last nod one in? My memory ain't great admittedly.

 

[TangerinePeel]

I think that's the third time we've been gifted the ball in their half and we had just done fuck all with it.

Seems to be no urgency when have got those opportunities.

 

[Scaramanga]

Kai Kai frustrates

 

[20togo]

Too many times reluctant totake a shot

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

When did Madine last nod one in? My memory ain't great admittedly.

Think it was a more tongue in check statement saying we need a header in the box cos every cross so far has been easily dealt with by Pompey.

 

[TANGERINETOWERPOWER]

Kai Kai a passenger...he needs to create some magic or be hooked at half time

 

[Abiks4321]

Is it me or does Kaikai’s plan most of the time be to cut in on right and fire it low

 

[tangerine_neil]

Can’t understand why we’ve dropped the Yates / Madine successful pairing.

 

[I bleed Tangerine]

Yates isolated yet again, he xan not play on his own upfront, he needs someone with him. We are playing well, but we played well against Argyle and got beat. This formation lack so much going forward. Frustrating

 

[Chunkylad]

Can’t understand why we’ve dropped the Yates / Madine successful pairing.

I can only think he must be looking tired on the sport science stats from his shift on Saturday. No other reason to scrap that succesful pairing.

 

[Memphisboy]

We’re the home team the onus is on us to attack and win the game, Draws are no bloody good,

 

[Sooty59]

Too many times reluctant totake a shot

Just what I was thinking

 

[HetzkeBlaster]

Can’t understand why we’ve dropped the Yates / Madine successful pairing.

The partnership definitely created problems in front of goal whereas tonight their defence has coped with Yates without real threat.

 

[Albert Ross]

Kai Kai a passenger...he needs to create some magic or be hooked at half time

Critchley won’t hook anyone until at least 70 mins, he thinks it’s against the rules.

 

[Mark_GT]

Colin Greenall underwhelmed by our neat and tidyness ... and then some truly crap defending nearly brings a goal. If they score first it could be a long night.

 

[Wizaard]

Husband two chances to clear and failed both times. Nearly cost us.

 

[LGDSeasider]

never thought I’d say this... we need Madine on!
