Bristol Rovers v Blackpool Matchday Thread

[7YearCritch]

Has Scrafton been denied oxygen in the stands .. he's actually made a compliment about a Blackpool side!

Matty Virtue again denied by Blackman as the keeper makes a flying save to his right. Seasiders have been superb for the last 10 minutes or so

 

[TangerineDan]

Come on u Pool!! We need to show some grit here to keep a clean sheet and hang on to the 3 points, something we have not done for a long time!

 

[Sir Stanley]

Is their goalie (Blackman) the Chelsea goalie who was in goal for Wycombe a three seasons ago? I thought he was bl**dy good at the time. Very very tall

 

[TickTock]

Are we missing Spearing - sounds like not?

Steady on! The Spearing fan club will be along to defend their little munchkin

 

[voyeur]

Another goal would be handy!

 

[Wizzerboy]

At least Blackpool are having a go.
Virtue again
Gas are a bad team

 

[PoolWarrior]

Cullen just scored his second for Port Vale - often wonder if we ditched him too early - always got goals in him even if he was no longer a first team starter. BTW - 'Another goal would be handy!' should be this season's motto!

 

[Seasider Sam]

Keep it going lads.

 

[Poolfan2]

Looking at the League Table it looks like we're in a fight for 11th place for the remainder of the season

Ironic isn't it because even if we'd won on Tuesday, we'd still be 10 points off the Play Offs. If Sadler got rid of Grayson to give us one final chance of pushing for the Play Offs, it was always too late to salvage the season.

 

[Tangerinenick]

At least Blackpool are having a go.
Virtue again
Gas are a bad team

Had more points than us before this game though....

 

[Halifax71]

I'd take a 2-1 defeat - look after the goal difference.

 

[Stu99]

Thrown it away again...

 

[Wizzerboy]

Blackpool doing exactly what every other team that are winning should be doing.
Winding down the clock and winding up the fans

 

[Levi501]

Bollox!

 

[Poolman]

Another worldy goal by the sound of it!

 

[Ormergod]

f me the cb just smashed it in the top corner from 30 yards

 

[Seasider Sam]

 

[Old_Laytonian]

Bugger

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

Bollocks 1-1

 

[NewburyOne]

FFS - it was always likely, will we crumble again?

 

[Athers]

Nice one scrafton

 

[Halifax71]

quality goal to be fair.

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

You could see that coming really needed that second goal.
Lucky to hang on for a point now.

 

[Sir Stanley]

1-1

 

[Wizzerboy]

What a fcuking beauty

 

[BlackpoolsFinest]

Keeper should have got a touch on that.

He's crap.

 

[voyeur]

Thrown it away again...

I wouldn't say that.

 

[Bloodtangerine]

Good strike sadly

 

[Meanleywarrior]

I agree, I don't rate Maxwell at all, and other than being a Larry signing I don't see what he's done to be the current first choice. He's all over the place whenever the ball comes towards him.

Decent distribution, everything else is a negative for me, especially his size.

I don’t think he’s that bad

 

[Poolman]

The amount of times this season we've conceded and Fleetood have promptly scored - looks like our game at Highbury is purely to deny them a Play Off charge!

 

[xows]

Yeah we needed the second

come on “Pool

 

[Bloodtangerine]

Can still win it if Gnands could hold the ball up the odd time

 

[Wizzerboy]

Yet again the opposition score a fcuking worldy.
Gas this Saturday, Southend last week!!

 

[NewburyOne]

What a fcuking beauty

We do seem to see opposition teams score worldies a lot, feckin annoying.

 

[Bloodtangerine]

Keeper should have got a touch on that.

He's crap.

Very very harsh especially in the conditions

 

[Wizaard]

At least the Nobbers are down.

 

[BlackpoolsFinest]

I don’t think he’s that bad

He rarely makes saves, and when he is tested, the opposition end up scoring.

 

[NewburyOne]

Gnando injured, Nuttall on, can anything else go wrong today?!

 

[TickTock]

Preston concede .. the day isn't wasted!

ON - Joe Nuttall OFF - Armand Gnanduillet (injured)

 

[Wizzerboy]

There doing it again, concede then start inviting pressure

 

[Bloodtangerine]

Nutters on!

 

[BlackpoolsFinest]

Very very harsh especially in the conditions

He's looked a liability in every game he's played.
Whenever he's put under pressure he's all over the place.

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

Nuttall on for Gnanders, Scrafton reckons he got a knock earlier, time for a new hero?

 

[Bloodtangerine]

Great clearance off the line

 

[Halifax71]

Nuttall?? Just dont see it.

Hope he proves me wrong.

 

[hertfordseasider]

Gnand's and Madine injured, that will be great for any new manager!

 

[Curryman]

Cometh the hour cometh the man? We'll see.

 

[Bloodtangerine]

He's looked a liability in every game he's played.
Whenever he's put under pressure he's all over the place.

I’m talking about that particular goal as were you with your original comment

 

[Nuttalls Mint Toes]

A Nuttall winner and I'll change my profile pic and show my backside (hopes for all our sakes it stays 1-1!)

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

The amount of times this season we've conceded and Fleetood have promptly scored - looks like our game at Highbury is purely to deny them a Play Off charge!

If the Cod’s win today that’s one decent result against an excellent posh side.
