Who the Hell were they? AVFTT Quiz on the 2014/15 squad Fri 22nd May 2015
So it will come as little surprise to any Blackpool fan that we used the most players in the football league. In some way, shape or other we managed to get through 50 of them. The good (O'Hara and umm .. errr ..), the bad (where do we start) and the ugly (sorry Perks!). So whilst you're waiting for the sun to come out over the Bank Holiday weekend, how many of our squad players from last season can you name? |
No Pain, No Retain! Tue 19th May 2015
I have an image of the evil child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and the look of joy on all the children's faces when they were released from his wicked grasp! Whilst they may now be out of work there can't be many of Blackpool's ex-players who aren't secretly relieved that they won't have to return to Gloomfield Road next season. |
Blackpool v Huddersfield Preview Fri 01st May 2015
It's the game that needs no introduction or for that matter preview. It's Blackpool's final match in the Championship and it's also the day that the fans judge the Chairman. |
Ipswich v Blackpool Preview Fri 10th Apr 2015
If euthanasia was available in football, then Blackpool would be put out of their misery long before Saturday's trip to Portman Road. It is quite astonishing that the bookmakers are still edging their bets with odds on of 11/1 on an away win because anyone who puts money on that bet deserves at least ten times those odds. Imagine a 3 legged donkey going round the Grand National and that's Blackpool at Ipswich and don't expect the side to get anywhere near Beacher's Brook! |
Blackpool v Reading Preview Tue 07th Apr 2015
A Dead Rubber, a Dead Duck, a Dead football club some would say but if you want a game with absolutely no meaning then the one tonight at Bloomfield Road provides it. Ridiculous it should have been moved in the first place from Bank Holiday Monday and now looks quite ridiculous that both teams needed rest before this game. |
Blackpool back to bare bones Mon 06th Apr 2015
The Seasiders will have to complete the season without another body as it was revealed that Tom Aldred will miss the rest of the campaign with a hamstring injury. The 24 year old who joined from Accrington Stanley picked up the injury in training on Thursday. |
Bolton v Blackpool Preview Fri 03rd Apr 2015
In a season of very little good news, no Blackpool fan will take scant consolation in the fact that Blackpool can't get relegated at the Macron on Saturday. In fact the news will probably disappoint more Trotters fans than it will please Seasiders. In fact, there is a chance that we could get past Easter without facing the drop and it could come against Reading on Tuesday night. Never has there been a season where Blackpool have had so little to fight for with more than half a dozen games to go. |
Blackpool 1 Wigan 3 Sun 01st Mar 2015
So that is effectively that. Blackpool, unless there is a minor miracle or World War III will be playing their football in League One next season. Another appalling afternoon on the Fylde Coast where the foul weather matched the atrocious weather on an unplayable surface, |
Brentford v Blackpool Preview Mon 23rd Feb 2015
Two games unbeaten for Lee Clark's side but four games without a win is the real stat. If Blackpool had won the last four games then they'd be knocking on the door to safety which shows that it can be done, however the chances of the Seasiders putting together a four game unbeaten run are as likely as Jeffrey Rentmeister being the next presenter of Top Gear. Another tough away trip takes 'Pool to Griffin Park where they face a Brentford surprise who have been one of the surprise packages in the Championship this season and could well end up in the top tier next season if they're form continues. |
Blackburn v Blackpool Preview Fri 20th Feb 2015
Invariably journalists call this one a 'Lancashire Hot Pot' but truth be know this one is a bit more like 'Betty's Hot Pot'. No longer in demand but fondly remembered. After years of these two sides not playing each other, games at Ewood Park have always been fiercely contested and quite often were pivotal to the two sides fortunes. Whilst Blackpool would love to earn their first win on the road, the three points now would be welcome but not especially crucial. However, on the other side, another defeat away from home could further maroon the Seasiders at the foot of the table. |
