Harrogate Town v Blackpool Official Matchnight Thread 02.12.25

[tangerine.com]

Told you never put a manager in charge who has played for the club

We’ve had mangers that’s haven’t played for the club and we’ve been bad

 

[YOUPOOL]

These are absolutely awful how the t are we losing

 

[Albert Ross]

We’ve had mangers that’s haven’t played for the club and we’ve been bad

Appleton, Mad Mick, Lee Clarke, Neil Macdonald, Bruce. To name just a few.

 

[JJpool]

As it does stand the Bolton fans are right? We’re playing backwards and sideways all the time

It's called passing and trying to build attacks instead of just launching it forward and losing it, which puts us on on the back foot chasing games being overrun and overwhelmed most games.

We're trying to learn a better way in live games, with some players who aren't that good, but are at times reverting to type, when Evatt wants crisp positive passing and being brave at times, not safe sideways passing always.

The last league game is the only one we've been well beaten and that was mainly due to amateur defending and us being incredibly wasteful.

And so are we

 

[Time is UP]

Good news Wigan 1 Burton 0 at present.

Eight minutes to save face

 

[bill40]

bloody 4-2

 

[midfield general]

I'd play shit too if I was out of position.

Just as well you never played then,
All player's will have to at some point.
In some cases it actually results in improving a player.

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

Lee Evans is a ** clown

 

[poolfc]

Oh well it was fun whilst it lasted. Evans on his arse

 

[Hevster]

Bugger

 

[Blackpool_Gaz]

They know how to shoot. Which Pool player could do that?

 

[TangerineArmy]

Evans... why is he still on... just send him off

 

[HappyasLarry]

Lee Evans .. shite!

It may have been a foul on Evans but it looked more like he felt the touch and fell over. Weak as piss and in our net 10 seconds later

 

[Halifax71]

Shocking defending - again.

 

[Southshoresteve]

Gimps

 

[Victorsponge]

Eight minutes to save face

Is that for Harrogate to save face!

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Can only assumed knackered as no one wanted to challenge that. Their player could have gone left or right.

Shambles but it's not the formation....

 

[NewburyOne]

Taught a lesson in how to finish by a L2 side. Evans looked like he wanted a foul, rather just playing with tempo. It's been better this half but this is another disgraceful showing.

 

[BestTrip]

Horsfalls body language doesn't seem great to me. He didnt look at all bothered then

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

He was playing for the foul and didn’t get it. He’s an idiot.

You’re too kind……not a foul…Evans just being shite

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Obviously our players are the 'other' cases then.

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

Probably asking himself why didn’t sign that new deal at Stockport

 

[Roy Kent]

Kidnap Muldoon at the end of the game…..

 

[Athers]

He was playing for the foul and didn’t get it. He’s an idiot.

I actively hate him. Absolute gimp

 

[premierdream2010]

Bloody disgrace. Carlisle are going to have a field day on Sunday with this shower of shite

 

[Ockers]

We have a keeper that doesn't look like he has ever played kn goal before

 

[tangerine.com]

Sunday is going to be a goal fest for Carlisle. Their party will have started now if they are watching our shower.

 

[tangerinesince88]

Probably asking himself why didn’t sign that new deal at Stockport

Doubt it when he’s on 10k a week here

 

[Tangerine1953!]

Awful formation awful tactics

 

[Adams Kebab]

Lee Evans in can’t run shocker.

Should be a surprise to nobody including Lee Evans which is why he fell to the ground as he knew he’d lose the ball.

 

[Victorsponge]

Conceded 7 goals (at the moment) bloody pathetic

 

[Albert Ross]

Whoever authorised the signing of these 2 so called keepers deserves the immediate sack. Or send for me and I will personally give them a good hard kick in the testicles.

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

I actively hate him. Absolute gimp

Was just thinking that I’ve not disliked one of our players so much for a long time. He has a certain arrogance about him but he can’t back it up with any ability.

 

[bill40]

Even Chizzy has given up on this one!

 

[NewburyOne]

Desperately unlucky from Banks.

 

[tangerinesince88]

It's a fair post.

Some of it. But Sadler is a great owner, maybe he’s made some poor decisions but only with good intentions.

 

[SeasideKurt]

Argh. We would have won if we played 4-4-2 or 4-3-3!

 

[poolfc]

Ian Evatt's favourite word is Banksy

 

[Blackpool_Gaz]

"Much improved"??? Only because Harrogate took their foot off the pedal being 3-0 up

 

[Adams Kebab]

What Scott Banks just did there, CJ could never ever do.

Progress with the ball forward with purpose in a tight area and shoot from distance. Unlucky off the post.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Dear Mr Sadler, please sack that ** Downs. And whilst you're at it take a long hard look in the mirror.

 

[tangerine.com]

Argh. We would have won if we played 4-4-2 or 4-3-3!

We wouldn’t have won it if threw them all in defence.

Careful now you'll be accused of being a Scott Banks fan boy

He’s put a lot of money in this season??
