Some issues with the catering and drinks on offer: Blackpool supporters wanted pies and pints of cask bitter, but all Squires Gate could offer was smoked salmon pasta with crispy capers, or oyster dish platters washed down with a Chateau Lafite - Rothschild 2005.

Those prices of course are only affordable to a Tory voting stock broker belt middle class fan base, which includes Lytham and parts of Poulton le Fylde who have a coach parked in the drive.

I was more disappointed they didn't sell any chocolate bars to go with my half time brew, on the plus side they have done some extensive renovation work on the ground which looks good.

Well that game won't live long in the memory. Poor game on a poor pitch.

Nice to see the refurb and upgrades that Squires Gate have done to the entrance and the clubhouse.

Pitch was full of sand last time I went.

That bobbly pitch finished my football career 40 years ago when l tore my ankle ligaments and now suffer from osteoarthritis

Spot on.

I was there as a footman on the carriage bringing the Squire in along with the Bishop of Bath and Wells, then fed him babies at half time.

Is your actual name David Whelan..?

One point of interest.
The referee gave SG a corner this afternoon after the Pool keeper held on to the ball for too long, presumably in excess of 8 seconds.
A sign of things to come?

Can't really blame the keeper for time wasting against quality opposition like that.

That's 16yr olds for you. Have you ever known them do anything in a hurry.

That rule will be rigourously enforced for about a month, then will be forgotten and never seen again.

That is a new rule brought in at the club world cup this summer, 8 seconds is the max.

Referee was Poulton lad Scott Oldham, pity injury blighted his career, he was heading for the Premier League but looks like he'll finish as a good EFL one now.

Leliendal, Nwankwo and Wylezol are all very bad hands at scrabble!
