Yeah yeah yeah… see you on the 5th.Oh dear, there was a lot of below par, which is ironic....
The hotdogs bit got me, still eating the thing at the end of the game
Absolutely awful for the disabled fan on access and inclusion day, no access to the concourse either.
Very poor.
Another non biased opinion of our atmosphere way better vs theirs and they won the game too.
For better or for worse, things look set to change at Deepdale.

Maybe, not a great review though.
Some basic things seemingly lacking.
Not a Blackpool fan lie about the atmospheres as some claim though is it, when unbiased people keep saying so.

Hopefully they can rise to the challenge and try make more of an effort and we can all be shocked by the noise, like a Man Utd fan once was in a video on the internet.

Going to be scary stuff, those extra casual nobbers spread round the stadium, not making much noise.
That'll really intimidate 2.2k hardcore pool fans, all together, all on the same page, all shouting chants at full volume.
2.1k at Stoke was epic and I think that was more spread out too.

Interesting that they're looking at selling 17,000. So 5,000 below capacity.

There's still some big gaps in the bigger stand that is parallel to the pitch, in the end blocks.
But from what I saw early on after they went on sale, unless they sold straight away which I doubt, it looked like in the invisible stand the very end blocks weren't used. Makes sense at the end near us to avoid close fan proximity but looked the same at the other end.
As well as seemingly not selling the front few rows in that bigger main stand.
So there'll probably be some spaces, but it'll be a good crowd, but could have fit in in their usual aides id imagine, very petty and might get a reaction from our side....

Could be. But can usually tell if a block wasn't available as there's usually always the odd seat left under normal sales patterns, especially if its not an obvious popular area that sells out straight away usually.
But anyway, who really cares, 2.2k pool fans will be there and thats all that really matters.

The thing is, you don't have to be anti Preston, just pro Blackpool, and that's without actually posting anything.

Me too, its a badge of honour.
The capacity for the game with segregation, night match etc is about 21000.
We have now got the same number of tickets left to sell in the home end as there are home fans in your stand.
Meaning? If we hadn't reduced your allocation then anybody wanting a ticket to support North End, wouldn't have been able to buy one now because there would be none left.
Meaning? We have prioritised our own fans in the same way you (rightly) did.
Facts. They're such a bugger aren't they!

Nice try, but your making an obvious mistake and that doesn't even add up anyway... but....
If you hadn't reduced our allocation you wouldn't have this unnecessary segregation.
Your capacity is 23,404 and the away end is 5933.
That leaves 17,471.
So you'd still comfortably fit into the 3 sides.
Don't forget you seemingly haven't sold the end invincible blocks, not the one near us, or it seems at the other end. IPJ and IPA.
You also have 3 rows at the front of J and H that aren't being sold and 1 row in others at the front.
But the main point is you don't have more 17,471 sold so you could fit in the 3 sides.
So no one would be missing out.
23,404 - aprox 2k segregation in the away end.
- the 2281 available tickets as per this count Link
- 2200 pool fans
16,923
Then as said you have the front 3 rows of 2 blocks, let's say 170 and just the front rows of other blocks in the same stand seemingly not available so more there.
Then the invincible end blocks to take off. Cba to work it out but probably at about a bit under 16k and thats assuming hospitality is all sold.
A decent effort but your right about one thing...
Facts, they're such a bugger aren't they.

Let’s face it, nob end lilyshites have had foop all to celebrate apart from being in a higher division for a few years and the ‘famous’ midweek cup final game for them.
Can’t wait to watch them all creeping out after 60-70 mins when we are singing our lads on to victory, again !!!! Utp!!

Only pointing out an inaccuracy, doesn't matter I suppose in the scheme of things.Word to the wise, don’t argue with the Head of Tickets…….he will eventually bore you to death
But I'm glad you recognise the title, spent years working towards that.
Anyway am looking forward to the game, might not be a full away end like past times but also the away crowds are a different beast these days.
As mentioned before your away crowds was mostly older ambassadors I believe.
Most of our younger and vociferous fans qualify with the way we do it.
We've always been a noisy fanbase but it's a new level now.
Can't wait.

Use that video to gain false confidence if you want. It's a video, by a young lad, with low sound quality, only recording noise immediately around him, taken at a time it wasn't even loud.

Just watched Lee Charkes 2 nil home win footage again. The bit where he pans across to the Nobbers whilst we are singing Preston gets battered just shows what a strange weird lot the away fans were. It's as though they rounded up a load of dossers and scum and shipped them over to Blackpool just to watch them get thrashed. Truly a different kind of human being.

You've prioritised your ' I go on once a season ' glory hunters. There not really supporters are they ?
Yes. Yes we have. Same as yourselves.
I’ve pasted this from our forum…
This kind of sums up our bewilderment at some of the things your fans are saying…
‘’
Just had another look on avftt regarding the ticket sales ( theirs and ours)
I know all fans look through rose-tinted glasses when it comes to most things about their and other clubs, but the Lashers really are fuckin’ delusional.
If my calculations are correct, there were 11,760 home supporters at Gloomfield back in October (with what appeared to be empty seats)
So roughly speaking, if there are 20,000 (and it won't be far off) total in attendance at Deepdale, that will make circa 18,000 Nobbers.
With a straight face, how can they possibly diss our numbers and any empty seats there might be?
Just for clarity, 18,000 would fill all of their poxy ground with another 1,000 locked out with no fuckin’ room for any of them.’’

There’s absolutely no doubt that it definitely gets to you lot.
I’m not sure I’ve witnessed such a wet fanny reaction to the ticketing situation in the lead up to us spanking your arses 2-0 at Bloomfield.
Now you’re on here daily trying to big up your numbers, in advance of your next spanking.
The only consolation though is that after 5th April we can all look forward to you lot climbing back under your collective rocks and hibernating for three months like you did after our home fixture.

Its great you are going to have loads of casuals who clearly haven't been there all season, extra family members, friends etc all very good. I haven't said anything other than its a good effort to fill it, on sale for months though.
Seems a common comment over there in the past, they only had x amount in their game at Bloomfield, it was sold out.
There were empty seats for segregation, a daft amount in the east, but not a lot can be done about that once the decision was made, its not like we made that decision, the club would want as many seats full.
The only other ones were a few front rows of the north which round about 3 years ago we got punished for a pitch invasion i think was the reason.
We've only just got those seats back available recently.
So the game was a complete sell out of what was allowed.
We are limited due to the stadium and I'm sure if we put ours on sale for months and had capacity, we'd get a lot more than we got.
But were not there yet. Weve got one real lasting legacy of the Oystons and thats the east stand, which sadly will take time to replace.
So while you might not get some pool fans winding people up, some of the stuff said over there is bordering on stupid, like it wasn't a sell out because I saw some unused seats.
Was even one guy who mentioned the 800 in the east and the fact they had empty seats in front of them as proof we didn't sell out.
But we had only 800 put in the middle of 2 blocks.
There's also the refusal from some on there to accept we have impressed a lot of home fans where we have played away and teams when they come to Bloomfield Road with the atmospheres.
There's the tiny tinpot club descriptions, that despite us being above you in our first season in the Championship on far less a budget btw, beat you already, have had similar crowds up until now despite the stadium limitations, covid promotion so no sell out playoff game or 30k Wembley, no ticket deals like you've had with 3 for 2, 15 quid, fiver Hemmings game. Without those you'd be lower, although obviously do have your big derby days to come, but there's not much in it.
Yet were a 'tiny tinpot club', what does that make you then seeing as you've been in the division for many years and we wiped all that progress out in 6 months and have similar attendance with a limited stadium. We also charge more for the big games for for the walk on casual fans.
So let's not pretend there isn't a load of shite chatted over there too.

There's no doubting we were tinpot in the past, most pool fans would agree. But since Sadler has come in there's been tons to fix, we now operate far more professionally. A massive change to the past.
Infact, Ive got it here but I haven’t has chance to read it myself yet but I already know parts of the history, but the just realised book, how not to run a football club, If any nobbers want to genuinely understand the boycott and how the club was run and things that tipped people over the edge, probably worth reading.
We see some bullshit posted about that, so if people want to find out the truth then see what they think, I think many would be shocked.

Exactly this. Both sides spout some shite and have an overly negative view of the other, that’s literally what football rivalry is. Personally can’t wait until the game is over!I genuinely don’t get why you care so much or seem to get so rattled about what they think about our club?

When some of the hypocrisy is so easy to expose, when we get called thick and yet some stuff is blatantly wrong, so much so that you'd have to be a bit thick, its hard to turn down.
When some are spouting absolute nonsense about the boycott or whatever and since I was banned many years ago the chance to enlighten or challenge the few nobbers on here is enjoyable.

Yes but there's rivalry and being plain wrong. Many of them genuinely think they're superior and that we're all thick.
Yet many of the piss taking ones come on here and make fools of themselves and get easily out debated, no banned as their leader claimed. Not great being out debated by people you think are dumb, as what does that make you...
There's a few on here who have some more sensible conversations and I don't mind sensible discussion with a bit of banter thown in.
Its a little bit like North Korea over there at times, most pool fans banned over many years for not much, only one side of an argument with one or two tame seasiders allowed to stay who mostly toe the line and don't question obvious flaws in arguments.
At least over here we allow all the opinions of those who come over... and then can easily dismantle any obvious bullshit.
I see a fair bit of that sentiment on here going back the other way too though, not like it’s exclusive to them.

Yeah all sides have idiots or people on a wind up. But its such a closed off forum you barely see any other view over there.
Plus only 1 fanbase has built up their whole rivalry mentality as being superior, when much of that vanished, they were left with not much at all to brag about.
They were ahead, miles ahead but recently we undid most of their progress of being in the championship for years in 6 months and that will have hurt.
The only thing they have to brag about is capacity of a bigger stadium thats mostly never used, ancient history and denying us tickets was a huge highlight of the season.
Probably why they were so negative at Bloomfield Road, as when you think your superior and you aren't, that whole reality came crashing down.

One hell of an intimidating atmosphere waiting for us....
They seriously type this shit with a straight face...
When has deepdale EVER been intimidating?
Seriously fella our last meeting at our place
I had 20 year old Blackpool fan who for 30 mins was in the back of my car shitting him self he begged me to hide him .
We are not in the 60s any more it time to grow up & come with your family’s to enjoy a game of football instead of bragging who's got a bigger dick .
It’s pathetic & simply doesn’t look good for either club.

But wait, what are you on about? I posted the pic of that guy saying it'll be so intimidating, so I'm not the one bragging about anything intimidating, only saying its not intimidating at all when we've visited. Maybe have a word with the guy on your site if your that bothered at the mention of an intimidating atmosphere. Think your confusing atmosphere with trouble.
Personally we love a good atmosphere, as I'm sure you're aware, not going to intimidate us.
