Critchley Out.

I thought I'd get there before Phil in a few months time. I've done the suck it up and get behind the manager twice now but not this time. I should have been Dobbie and in your heart of hearts you all know that. Bloody terrible appointment.
its people like you who try tear the club down by berating every decision you don’t agree with.

Critchley is the best appointment we could have made - everyone would unanimously agree if he had said a proper goodbye 12 months ago and that’s a fact.

Exactly this, once he clears the air and we start winning games we might see half the sulkers on here have a nap UTMP
 
Good, less people like you at Bloomfield Road the better chance he has of making a success of things.

If Critchley succeeds then Blackpool succeed

Grow up ffs.
I think the if is too big as it was with both MA and MM. I give it about three months before Dobbie is back in, I hope Im eating humble pie come Nov/Dec.

Appleton and McCarthy were both horrors of appointments.

We’ve just appointed the bloke who took us up and then kept us up comfortably. If you look at that in isolation it’s a great appointment.

The way he left stings, and he had a poor time at QPR but I don’t think that’s all on him as Ainsworth made them even worse!

How can it be a fact ? You re presuming you know the minds of every Blackpool supporter .
Critchley got it hugely wrong with the way he left ....silently and , now , has admitted and apologised for that
You don't know what's in the mind of any other Blackpool supporter. Now that actually is a fact
 
I wanted Dobbie, so I’m disappointed, but now we all have to get behind Critchley. He does need to make a positive statement about his second coming and he must have learned a lot from his spells at Villa and QPR.
 
One thing is certain, he will be playing a decent team at Peterborough next season which is great for me as I live 40 mins away!

Rejoice at this news!

Not really. He fucked off half way through a "project", not particularly arsed about the way he did it.

If ever we needed proof as to why we need to bring Grammar Schools back just read posts like this. Imagine wanting to learn and being sat next to bill40 in class.

I have made a perfectly constructive statement Doddie would have been a better appointment, so do now see the difference between constructive and non constructive criticism? I was Grammar school but got a tad expelled. People sat next to me because I knew all the answers, well, when I could be bothered to turn up.

Bye bye Bill, enjoy your forthcoming season supporting another team 👋🏻

... except for English classes. They just weren't for me.

I am not sure it should have been Dobbie as I feel that he proved he could motivate ,but as yet nothing else ,but you are spot on with Judas .Sadler is gambling again for a good start ,but if we don't get one we will have the most unpopular manager for months as I can't see him getting sacked early.

Sorry its not a fact . His football style was awful, he has failed in his next 2 jobs and his results were on the decline before he left. If he'd had said something on his leaving ,it would have been a bit more acceptable to have him back , but now we have a gamble just like with Appleton and if we don't get the early results the shit will hit the fan AGAIN.
 
Dobbie was only in charge for a few games. He only joined the U23's at the start of last season, so to be managing full time would arguably be a little bit too much.

He seems happy to go back to managing the U23's according to Simon in his interview.

This is what a lot of posters seem to miss, there's a lot more to being a manager than simply writing the names on a board and sending them out to play.

He might have got some good, albeit lucky, results against teams with nothing to play for, but there's no guarantee that he could continue that trend into next season when he has to take on the full responsibilities of being manager.

Too inexperienced and too soon for him.
 
I don't want anyone to boycott Blackpool F.C. but I believe that the hiring of Critchley is as bad or worse then hiring Appleton . Appleton left when the Oyscum were in charge and the fans were boycotting matches. Now we have an owner who is suppose to be looking after our club , yet has gambled once again on an unpopular manager .

The choice is simple ,if you think that Critchley is going to get the trust of all the fan base back ,if you think that he will get the trust of all the players that he left behind back, if you think he will be able to replace our better players that got us to the championship in the first place. Then get your £350 and go and enjoy.

Now on a personnel level I cannot see him doing anything like that . There will be some fans and players that just can't trust him. The finances that he will be given will be a lot less due to the East and Training ground being built. His style of football is not great to watch and he will have to hit the ground running with good results or the crowd will soon turn. I don't think he is capable of any of this and with a reduced home attendance I believe there is going to be a poor atmosphere. So ,at this moment I will not be spending my 350, yet don't let me put you off ,because I could be wrong.

Prob because he already knew he was going to Villa.

In other words win straight away and don’t ever go on a bad run or our cry baby fan base will turn on him and it will all be Crichleys fault for leaving in the first place.
I’m actually glad Sadler doesn’t get easily swayed by our fan base.

I think you will find that this only applies to Critchley ,because he is another ex manager that is being gambled on . All Sadler had to do was not re employ someone who turned their back on us and has been a failure ever since.
