The new manager speaks (always helpful!)
Tue Jun 2nd 18:44

So Neil McDonald is the new man at Bloomfield Road. More a deafening silence greeted his arrival than a euphoric welcome. However, even the 'chosen one' would have struggled to muster more than a clap from Blackpool fans in the current climate. However, here's here and this is what the new manager has had to say.

Hey June!
It would seem that Blackpool fans fall in to three categories at the moment. Mon Jun 1st 15:27

Mr 'Blackpool FC' Chris Hull has died
For a whole generation of Blackpool fans, his dulcet tones at Bloomfield Road on a Saturday afternoon used to make him Mr 'Blackpool FC' and so it's with great sadness that Seasiders have learnt today of the death of Chris Hull. Sun May 31st 13:15

Who the Hell is Neil McDonald?
You rarely find a poor bookie and so when the odds on Neil McDonald becoming the next Blackpool manager fell to 4/6 on Saturday morning, you get the impression that we have a very likely candidate to take over football's poisoned chalice. Sat May 30th 14:29

Another crap week in the life of Blackpool FC
You'd like to think in the crap world of Blackpool FC that one day we will finally hit rock bottom and things may start to improve. Fri May 29th 18:40

No Sale, No Manager, No Answers! Offer to buy Blackpool FC turned down!
If Grimm ever had problems writing a final fairy tale then he should have looked no further than Bloomfield Road - and believe us, it is Grim! So, the club receives an offer, the Oyston's are keen to talk, Belokon does a quick flounce and won't talk, the Oyston's then say they won't accept any other offers that don't match the structure of this offer, Belokon says nothing, the deal breaks down and now the club finally look to appoint a new manager.

Who the Hell were they? AVFTT Quiz on the 2014/15 squad
So it will come as little surprise to any Blackpool fan that we used the most players in the football league. Fri May 22nd 13:42

Democracy at the Seaside? by BasilRobbieReborn
Easily the most intriguing development of the summer so far has been the announcement by the club that it is to form a Fan’s Parliament. Thu May 21st 19:16

Which Blackpool Hero was Clark after?
Lee Clark's departure didn't leave that many questions unanswered. Thu May 21st 16:01

No Perks at Bloomfield Road
"He could do a job in League One" - probably the worst compliment anyone could pay a player who's been plying his trade in the Championship for the last two seasons! However, that seems to have been the general consenus about David Perkins who was released by Blackpool officially yesterday and has been 'snapped up' by Wigan Athletic today. Wed May 20th 18:15

Have we missed our first target?
As the season approached it was suggested that if everything fell in to place we'd have a decent spine of a team. Wed May 20th 12:49

It’s said you reap what you sow, and looking at the state of the relationship between Blackpool FC’s owners and the fans it’s a statement that certainly rings true.

Dream Stealers.
by Curryman Wed 27th May 2015
A number of good Blackpool fans have been, and still are, embroiled in ugly legal threats devised by dream stealers who, it would appear, have little better to do than to seek apologies and compensation from the erstwhile individuals who have had the temerity to upset them, instead of concentrating on the job in hand, that of running a successful football team, have a happy and growing fan base and be held in high esteem.

Please go, and go now.

Lee Clark - the half term report
by basilrobbiereborn Thu 19th Feb 2015
For Lee Clark, we are more or less half way through the task he was given at the end of October, and it seems a good moment to have a look at how he is actually doing.

The ignorant mind.
by Curryman Fri 23rd Jan 2015
The ignorant mind, it is said, with its infinite afflictions, passions, and evils, is rooted in the three poisons.

The Bad, The Good and the Ugly.

Remembering the 56 and its effects.
by Curryman Wed 17th Dec 2014
A recent feature on the Bradford fire disaster in the Observer newspaper stirred up a predictably powerful reaction among fans of the Bantams, and rightly so.
