Critch Signs

I don’t drink so I will celebrate with a strong horlicks.😂 I’m not surprised he signed, he knows how the club and fans feel about him and the feelings are reciprocated. He appreciates the fantastic support the players receive and he’s happy here. Working for an employer who appreciates you and doing a job you love with people who are behind you all the way is worth a great deal.

“Shortly after buying the Club, I realised that coaching and player development was going to be critical to our future success and on first meeting Critch in early 2020, I was impressed with how enthusiastic, passionate and knowledgeable he was about the game of football. Importantly though, The Board and I suspected that Neil was also primed to step up to first team management. Since working with him I have found him to not only be an outstanding Head Coach but also to be the consummate football professional who works hard, is humble and is a man of great integrity.

“What continues to impress me though is that he not only gets what we are trying to achieve at Blackpool Football Club but that he really gets what this Club and Town are all about. There is nobody else out there that I would rather partner with to take this great Club of ours forward and I relish watching Critch earn full legendary status over the coming seasons.

This is why we went through those years of hurt ,and do you know what I would'nt have it any other way . Onwards and Upwards
 
Shows real commitment from Critch as well. He knows there'll be loads of admirers and he could have made it easy for other clubs to poach him but now they will have to pay top dollar. He knows we are a project in the making. What a transformation from top to bottom at this club and the best fans to go with it.
 
I think the fans might need to adjust to the long-term thinking as well. We might hit a bad spell at some point but it's about the longer term plan and reaching those goals through player development and sometimes there will be periods when the players and the manager will need time and patience to keep things moving forward. Exciting times.
