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. |
The Retained List Thu 07th May 2015 If the result of the 2015 General Election is uncertain, the Father of Linda Carter's baby in Eastenders is a mystery and the whereabouts of Nile Ranger still keep you awake at night, it's nothing compared to the silence coming out of Bloomfield Road with regards to this season's retained list. |
Blackpool v Derby Preview Mon 20th Oct 2014 So when will Blackpool's luck finally change? It would seem not at the moment. One minute you read that Derby's excellent keeper Lee Grant will be missing for Tuesday nights game at Bloomfield Road and wonder if that is the break we need, and the next, Steve McLaren has gone to Stoke and borrowed their highly rated England Under 21 keeper Jack Butland. Jose Riga must wonder when his luck will change. |
Huddersfield 4 Blackpool 2 Sat 18th Oct 2014 In years to come when Blackpool fans are talking about the worst full match debut they've ever seen a Seasiders player make, then sadly for Joel Dielna his name will undoubtedly crop up. Let's not put all the blame on the youngster because there weren't many around him who covered themselves in glory in the opening half an hour at Huddersfield, but it appears he was first in Jose Riga's firing line. |
Shrewsbury Town 1 Blackpool 0 Tue 12th Aug 2014 The previous League Cup exits have been dismissed fairly quickly. Even the defeat to them down the road was eased thanks to their fans mindless pitch invasion. However the defeat to Shrewsbury has far more serious ramifications. Whilst we may have been able to take something out of the second half against Forest, there was nothing for Blackpool fans to take out of this game. |
Shrewsbury Town v Blackpool Preview Mon 11th Aug 2014 It may be scant consolation to Jose Riga but in the last two outings Ian Holloway and Paul Ince both succumbed to lower league opposition in the league cup and so no pressure in terms of our previous success in this competition! However, good news has been in short supply at Bloomfield Road of late and a moral boosting win is just what everyone could do with. |
