Blackpool v Rovers: Tuesday 28th November

[Barmitzvah Boy]

I can make this one as I have a dog sitter arranged. I bet Max cries when I leave him.

Firstly hearty congrats to Blackpool fans over the Val Benetton courtcase. I have it on good authority that Oyston legal bill is £9M+ and they are looking to liquidate as many assets as possible; they will no doubt look to overvalue the Blackpool FC business in order to get Vladimir Bellyman to pay top £€$¥ if he wants to take control of the Club.

I aim to arrive early to see if I can find the two ladies (Gladys and Ethel) firmly griping their donkeys with their thighs to see if they want a better ride. If you spot me on the ground I am the one with the beer / vino hat. I may suggest to the Roverstore that they supply these hats in Rovers colours.....our fans visiting away games may adopt them to sneak in alcohol as the stewards will never notice.

Finally BRAG ( the ‘Action Group’) are looking to hire a fleet of electric trikes for the next Venkys Out protest aka Blackpool fans style.

As for the score I reckon a 3-3 draw after ToMo sets up our side defensively out of respect for the Blackpool team.

Also pictured is BFC’s most famous fan riding his new ‘friend’.

Maybe you should give credit to the guy who's name you're making fun of for no apparent reason. Yeah the fans have protested (with somewhat more fire than Rovers fans though they do have visible owners to abuse who go out of their way to confront fans) but it was Belokon who won the court case. Anyone saying its down to the fans "persuading" him to take it to court is an imbecile.

Bit harsh Vinjay as I would say Belokon is also a fan

Another terrible performance and 3pts please.I remember reading TM before the season started saying this division you need to rotate your squad,he does and gets slated,I expect Nuttall to be rested at blackpool and one of the midfielders.

 

[Alan]

Bennett for Whittingham or Evans and Samuel for Nuttall with Graham to come on off the bench if needed. Leave the rest as Saturday.

 

[Drog]

As I've said Waggy sometimes you really need to be there.
We seem solid away from home but against a packed defence at home there is (Dack excepted) no spark of invention or imagination. (I'll concede that we've been massively unlucky with Chapman of course but shit happens.) Poor selection and tactics have cost us already at Ewood v 3 of the Divisons poorer teams from the bottom half Doncaster, Wimbledon, Plymouth and Fleetwood and almost with Bristol on Saturday. It'll definitely cost us again. Those with intentions of automatic promotion cannot allow slips against home bankers to occur and there the play offs are a lottery with just a 25% chance of succeeding.
As I've said teams will see how impotent we are against a packed defence at Ewood and how vulnerable to pace and swift breaks and select players and tactics to suit.

Can’t now make the game had to give my ticket away.

Radio Lancs for me

 

[Alan]

This is our chance to pull some points back. Please pick the right team Tony. I'm keeping everything crossed.

 

[tomphil]

Must have draw written all over it this.

1 - 1

 

[chor808]

We have to go for the three points tonight, I expect this won't be the team but my team would be:

Raya
Nyambe (just) Mulgrew Downing Williams
Bennett Evans Smallwood
Dack
Samuel Nuttal

Then again I fix computers so what do I know.

Putting a tenner on 0-0

 

[OnlyOneTugay]

I'm going for solid defensive display and Rovers nicking one

The Tangerines 0 The Rovers 1

Hopefully , as the temperature drops , none of our lads will be wearing tights and/or gloves.

Up the Rovers

 

[Drog]

'Pool 2-1 BRFC.

Our lucks bound to turn sometime.

 

[Alan]

Going out for a meal with friends tonight but my phone is coming with me. Very nervous. We need this. It's our match in hand and Charlton and Peterborough are playing too.

 

[ABBEY]

 

[Barmitzvah Boy]

Strong side. He is right to start Whittingham tonight as Bowyer always plays an open game (too open when he was. With us).

Ben Burgess speaking a lot of sense on Radio Lancs.

 

[ABBEY]

0-1 antonnsson

 

[Robin]

Big mistake by the Blackpool defender. Antonsson takes care of it and scores.
