Seriously, I’ll have you a bet that Blackpool don’t finish higher than Preston.

A lot depends on who we both sign and sell between now and the window closing, I think we will probably both be looking down not up and there won't be much between us but we can have 20 quid on it!

Glad you've mentioned Keshi. Ever since he arrived I've always thought him too casual in possession and careless in his passing. Don't get the hype from some who see him as essential.

Keshi looks heavy and completely disinterested to me at the moment. Wouldn’t be starting for me.

Yep I agree

I've thought a few times this is his day get on the ball and make things happen

He often flatters to deceive

Preston away in a free role springs to mind

Has someone hacked your account?

I rate Thorniley but he is definitely not a FB. I think we are going to have to accept Fragile Luke in that spot and just hope he delivers a few more corners like the one we scored from but leave others to take the free kicks where a shot on goal is required.

I'm worried if we have to start the season with Apter and Moore as the full backs though

Apter quite simply isn't a FB and I cant recall him ever playing in that position throughout his development.
At least Jack Moore knows how to play the position but clearly needs a season to develop physically. He also would have made a better job of those direct free kicks that Garbutt took.

Not bothered about Josh tracking back, he contributes enough going forward. You don't use a thoroughbred to pull a rag and bone cart.
Use a midfield water carrier to do his donkey work.

True, however still needs to learn not to faff when defending at times, like against Rangers and other times, he can get caught out at the back when a simple clearance might be needed. He'll still be back defending at times.

If Apter plays, he needs to be on the left of the attack. Either that, or Micky Apples is going to play all out attack and not give a fuck about conceding goals, in which case, it's going to be a mad ride.

Quite enjoyed that for a friendly, it didn't seem like one at times

Few minor moans

Why didn't the club tell people you could pay on the day?

Bizarre that there was a bar that nobody working in the North knew about, my 14 year old found it

Linesman awful their 2nd goal was at least 10 yards off side

We desperately need two full backs and we need to play a more mobile striker if we play the pressing game

Bowler is by far our best player and if any fans want him sold then they really should watch a different sport

Oh and I didn't see anybody in the Armfield giving Grimmy shit, that surprised me given how much grief he's had on social media this week

Utmp ....

POTG was a late decision and was publicised on the day, as was the extra bar in the north - both BFC and the SLO shared this on SM hours in advance of the game. 😉

Yeah but none of the stewards or bar staff in the North even knew about it until about 2.30

Not quite the new GTF we thought he might be. If he had 30 percent of Connolly's application he'd be some some player. Still time for him to turn it round but at the moment we look well short down the left.
