A supporter for decades, unwilling to join obsequious season ticket ostriches.

Six hours' goalless, one third division win amid football dross, transfer parsimony.

Just sit back and behave like serfs.

Pay hard-earned cash - and suck it up.

Paul you’re a highly respected journalist. What do you think should have happened?

Show workings so I understand and start with the 2022 accounts of owner has invested £16m so far.

It’s also full of people slagging off other fans without a providing a counter argument. Plenty of people not happy with the formation, tactics, out of player positions and lack of investment.

So what’s your counter argument or is it just ‘dickheads’.

We are in agreement.

I once had a tech company go into administration due to running too quickly and spending way more on marketing, stock and sales resource than the market could pay for in revenue. I thought I was being ambitious but actually I was just reckless.

Second time around I have been more circumspect and built it slower over years. That’s now outperforming the company that we threw massive cash at and is tempting buyers. It’s why I am asking who should pay for this?

The manager needs to get the best out of what he has. He also needs fans patience to make it happen. It’s early in the season and he’s experimenting- so far it’s not worked. It’s dour, dull, depressing and not working. However I don’t mind him experimenting. Who’d have thought Trent Arnold would play as a DM? Rashford could be better as a winger than the 9 he has always been?
 
The difference being those players have talent and play for Man Utd and Liverpool respectfully. We are asking League One footballers with limited ability to have the tactical awareness and do more beyond their core ability and competencies.

The system and tactics are far too complex for this league. Football is an easy game and Critchley is making it look very difficult.

Your aim matches the players' shots.

I acknowledge Sadler's expenditure.

But football ownership resembles a bike.

Fail to keep pedalling and you fall over.

The perennial hard second Championship season needed substantial investment.

It might have turned bad enough that he appointed the certain flops Appy and Mac.

Their hires revealed his blunder over Grayson's restoration taught him nothing.

Yet he compounded further coach disasters with transfer parsimony.

The club spent little from compensation for Critchley's exit and Bowler's sale.

Now he shows paltry ambition, with the Yates cash withheld, amid glaring holes.

Blackpool returned to division two via
significant outlay on first team regulars.

Norburn apart, summer has seen detioration to dependence on reserves.

Fans who again bought seats before the owner splashed out resemble useful idiots.

Bloomfield Road has their money, the window has shut and left them stranded.

The scenario epitomises UK decline.

Nothing works, the politicians offer scant difference and people still continue to vote.

A mass polls boycott that signals enough disgust to revolutionise the whole system?

Instead mugs complain and remain idle.

So that’s a list of what happened?

What should they have done?
 
It's a shame really.

There are historical posters on here who would have won the funniest post competition hands down in past years. Carpet Martin, Lytham - they put a lot of thought into their satire and should have been rewarded at a far higher literary level.

This pillock wins without even trying to enter in the first place.

Chunkylad, I appreciate you putting in your own business experience of slow build versus reckless spending. Wise words.

I can't, however, accept that critch is experimenting, unless it's the same experiment over and over again and same results happening each time.

I'd love him to experiment but I don't think it's going to happen just yet .

Never known a single journalist write like this - unless of course Paul writes for the Haiku Times? 🙄
 
At first, I thought this was parody Paulco post - so 110% Paulco was it.

Now I see these classic posts are from his account I'm convinced it actually IS a parody account.

Keep up the laffs, lad. 👍
