They shouldn t call it off they are only playing a little club.

 

[Pollenca]

Reid and Robinson played yesterday , Hector was a sub .
I think they will want to go ahead with the game to avoid a fixture pile up.

 

[JJpool]

That would be pathetic.

 

[Stony Hill]

And we’ve bought out their away allocation. Do their powers that be consider such scenarios?
I doubt it, unless it’s to their best interest. Gonna have to be fingers crossed until announced one way or another.

 

[Vince McLean]

Shameful - tough shit if some of their squad are away. Your choice if you sign a player who may be called up. Hopefully they'll underestimate us and think they can win anyway. They won't like it up 'em.

 

[King Billy]

Non story really, they want to play so it will be played. Glad to see that Robinson wont be playing, if hes that one who played left back at Bloomfield Rd I thought he was there standout player.

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

Taken from the Fulham board.
Seems like a good few of their fans want the game called off.

 

[BigHandsOliverKahn]

Sounds like they want to play the Covid card because they have players missing for other reasons. Farce.

So, they need all their stars to face up to little ol’ Blackpool?
And, we know from their visit to ‘Bloomfield Rd.’ that they’re in awe of Hoggy’s drum.

Its not playing the Covid card though is it? They are weakened by international call ups so have every right to ask for a postponement.

 

[Scaramanga]

You just know it’s going to be off dont you

 

[fcblackpool]

You just know it’s going to be off dont you

I can see it too.

Strange thing is I can see us getting something there.

 

[Seasider3610]

If it goes ahead then 8/1 for us to win with Fulham missing a couple of players is looking better

 

[Vince McLean]

Why should a side be able call a game off due to international call ups - outside of British & European fixtures? Their choice of players ... make your bed, go and lie in it.

Just put a fiver on us at 8s. Why not? Would pay for my rail fares

yeah i’ve done a ten spot Wiz - stranger things have happened

 

[SpionKop]

Just been on their forum and they (some of the fans) want it off!! Running scared of the Mighty

Obv hope they don’t waste of hotel and train fare etc

Another team with a big squad and resources afraid of playing little Blackpool when missing a few players, despite us missing loads too.

How are we able to carry on through covid and injuries etc.

Its a miracle.

Shouldn't be allowed to be off with all the tickets sold and bookings people have.

 

[PETER SPRUCE 1]

prem games plying catch up on i think ?

 

[Scaramanga]

Since when did anyone at the EFL give a fuck about that.

 

[Simonized]

Both teams to score and us 14/1.
Had a bit on both.

The overall consensus is they want to play it to avoid fixture congestion according to Matt Scrafton

 

[Vince McLean]

If the game goes ahead maybe we shouldn't be too hard on the Fulham faithful.

8/1 is a ridiculous price! The bookies also still see us as a L1 club.

Wait ‘till next week with CJ, Jerry, Madine and Bowler running rings round them

What! They're knocking the stuffing out of everything that's put in front of them. That would be ridiculous.

Totally agree the last thing you want is a break.

We have a thread talking about fans disrespecting us......... ‘teams like Blackpool’ and now one from our own fans calling us ‘little old Blackpool’. Can’t make this up

Not so.We are pointing out what teams like Fulham think we are. Like Sky TV see us as unimportant.

 

[TangerineBayern]

And this is what some deluded Millwall fan posted on their forum about yesterdays game:

Beat Everton or Leicester then lose to Barnsley or Rotherham. Our league form would be decent if we didn't have to play the shitty northern clubs home and away but just bigger teams, we might not win them all but you'll get a much better performance as did for the Nigels and Forest.

The delusion is strong with this one.

On that basis Fulham have only had two players called up for international duty in this window.

Therefore I don’t think they have the option of postponing.

Their website says Reid and Robinson will miss the Blackpool game so thats sounds like it’s game on.

 

[fcblackpool]

Hope it's on. A lot of people have invested time and money into this game.

I would hate to see them let down by stupid loopholes.

 

[Graham berrys plastic bag]

The covid card is getting played to often now although I did think apart from premiership games the leagues below could get games cancelled due to international call ups?

Always the case have 3 Internationale in your squad and you can get the game called off even happens in Lge 1.

Fair enough then, we’d probably do the same

 

[Hertsseasider]

If it is off, Barnet are at home. A new ground for thousands of us...........

 

[Jefflynnessongsheet]

Ah the poor little soft Southern Jessie’s afraid of playing us cos they’re not at full strength. Bunch of wussies!

 

[Scaramanga]

Why though ? There’s a week till the game with no midweek game, it’s lickle ol’ Blackpool and they have a week after the game to recover, they have scored 21 goals in 4games and are in absolute red hot form. Miss this and this and they might have to play 4 games In A week later on. Have a fucking word with yourselves ffs.

There second 11 is on more in wages than the whole of our entire squad and they dare to call the game off.
Fuck em and anyone else who doesn't play games.

Without doubt the most pathetic away fans I’ve seen for some time in terms of noise. Barely heard em. Have no sympathy at all for any of there fans feeing sorry for themselves. They brought there way through the league and sing shit like “we pay your benefits”……pricks

 

[Satriale's Pork Store]

Did they sing?

 

[Tangerinetiltingatwindmil]

Hotel paid for.
£133 train fare.
Absolutely disgusting if this is off.
It’s about time the paying customers were treated with a bit of respect.
F the EFL

Yep. Poor me, having to live 50 miles away in a Kent village and take the kids to piano lessons on a Saturday.

Whispered

 

[Class_of_2010]

Looks like only TWO Fulham players have been called up for International duty. Game on?

Yes judging by the Fulham website it looks like only 2 players are away on international duty and they currently intend to play the match: Fulham International Call Ups
