Blackpool game abandoned 17:02 - Jul 11 with 39793 views | dalebolt | Blackpools friendly against Lancaster has been abandoned, again due to fans refusing to leave the pitch. I wonder if they have anything planned for the 15th August? | | | | |

Blackpool game abandoned on 16:44 - Jul 21 by lurker | From memory, though, the Sandy Lane invasion was after the game had finished - thus inconveniencing nobody but the club officials. Might be wrong - memory is sketchy |
Yes that brilliant pitch invasion was after the match, a fantastic example of fans standing up for their rights, very proud that day. | |

Blackpool game abandoned on 18:26 - Jul 21 with 4367 views | Rosun | Ok, I'll try a different approach ... Will Blackpool Football Club reimburse Rochdale AFC the cost of the players travel arrangements should the game be abandoned? Can Blackpool Football Club guarantee the safety of our players in the event of an anticipated pitch invasion? Can Lancashire constabulary guarantee the safety of visiting fans? Until those questions can be answered I would be doubting the validity of the stadium's safety licence to hold football matches. Would the PFA be concerned about their members safety? So many questions, so few answers. | | | |

And you're absolutely right to be asking them. There's plenty on here who'd rather just take the head-buried-deep-in-the-blackpool-sand approach without any thought about the team they'd otherwise be there to support. If I were a member of the squad, I'd be concerned about starting a game and pulling my tripe out with the chances of it coming to absolutely nothing. I wonder what KH thinks? What if one of our lads picked up a bad injury in a meaningless game? Everyone's got to make their own choices and that's fine, but it's about a damned sight more than just missing out on a piss up by the seaside. | |

Blackpool game abandoned on 19:21 - Jul 21 with 4252 views | howy10 | Surely now is the time for Rochdale afc to contact the football league, Blackpool fc and also the police to get some answers regarding the ridiculous situation of will the game be completed or not. Whilst I sympathize with the Blackpool fans, they must remember that the football league do have the powers to throw Blackpool fc out of the football league and then you won't have a team to watch. I don't remember any game abandonments when Blackpool were on their way to the premiership. Weren't the Oystons in charge then? How convenient that you now want to ruin games now that you are a very poor side. | | | |

So in your world living by your conscience and supporting fellow football supporters who want the well being of their club back into the hands of somebody ethical is sticking your head in the sand. I'd say it's the complete opposite myself, like the Blackpool supporter started on this thread let's hope it never happens at Dale. Luckily we are in a position to have a chairman and board we can trust. [Post edited 21 Jul 2015 21:32]

Have you actually read up on what has been happening since their relegation from the Premier League including the suing of supporters on forums and many other misdemeanors? If not I'd suggest you might want to. | | | |

As others have pointed out, these same "ethical" supporters made a huge effort to wrench the club out of the hands of Oyston as he dragged it kicking and screaming into the premiership. And which other grounds have you felt yourself unable to force yourself through the turnstiles through the club being in the hands of less than trustworthy owners? | |

This is the first time I have found myself having to make the choice of which was made after their demonstration on the pitch at the last game of the season. By your statement your dictating that anyone who doesn't agree with you is in the wrong but then again you have lots of form of that on this message board. This will be the end of my discussion on this matter with you as we all know you always have to have the last word. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Flyerdale, using the phrase "you have lots of form on this messageboard" isn't the way to wriggle out of a corner. I do have sympathy for the plight of Blackpool fans - well, at least those who don't pop onto here to show how little they really think about anyone but themselves. | |

So is planning to get a game abandoned knowingly everyones had to pay to attend and in many cases travelled for miles "supporting fellow football supporters" too? Theres plenty of ways fans can object to the running of their football club and getting their voice heard,without resorting to a ridiculous pitch invasion during a match. | | | |

Blackpool game abandoned on 15:13 - Jul 21 by OdinsRaven | I don't need to explain anything. I am merely pointing out there are no guarantees as all forms of action are available. It's called total war. You don't have to like it or agree with it but it's what it is AS before, good luck for the season |
oh, pXss off. can't you see our concerns? Hard-working football supporters, like yourself, I imagine, could be £80-£90 out of pocket, maybe more if we are including travel, Accommodation, refreshments and outrageous ticket pricing. In principle, your attitude to our concerns are in direct parallel to what Oyston has towards you. Let us undertake our due diligence of the matter to ensure that we are guaranteed 90 minutes of football; that can't be too much to ask. As dale fans, i am sure we will sing through the entirety of the match towards the clown that is your owner in reference to him abandoning the football club, so to speak. AS always, Good luck for the season. | | | |
Blackpool game abandoned on 20:16 - Jul 22 with 3507 views | TangerineArmy | Alreet Dales. Thought I would come on and give you my views and hopefully put your minds at ease. In regards to the comments about us pool fans not moaning when Oyston got us to the prem, it was actually Belekon (who owns 20% of shares and oystons dont talk to) investment that bought likes of Adam and DJ that got us there. And Oyston still owes Belekon 7M!! So please dont give that family any credit for that unbelievable trip. Right pitch invasions, thats what you want to know about. Bar the Udders one I personally think any more would do more harm. And last night there was an internet broadcast with BST and Tangerine Knights and they all agreed that no more pitch invasions are planned and other demo ideas are being considered. Does that mean pool fans wont do it against dale? No, but I think its unlikely, as BST are against it, most vocal fans have been banned or are NAPM (not a penny more) and the ones that are left are highly unlikely to do anything in big numbers. You could possibly get an odd one, again I can't see it, but stewards will take them away. To be fair some might do it just to get banned!!! (Im serious) So enjoy your day (I really do respect any dale not coming as to give Oystons dosh but as a fan I understand why you would as its your team), but any Oyston out chants would be appreciated :) One of you will be sitting in my old seat as Im no longer a ST and NAPM and will not be back until they have gone, so enjoy the view (right behind goal up at the top). To sum up our plight I work with a chap who has had a ST for 40yrs until this season.... he has decided enough is enough. Wont bore you enough with our situation. As for the game, enjoy the easiest 3 points you will get this season. Oh spend loads on beer in blackpool but not in Oyston FC. UTP and goodluck for the season. | | | |

Blackpool game abandoned on 11:44 - Jul 23 with 3041 views | electricblue | When i heard this on NWT i immediately thought that would be typical of the oystons ingore the offer and not contact them and maybe they will go away.. When it will actually light the blue touch paper and make matters worse.. The best thing that any blackpool supporter can do is to vote with their money.. Dont go to matches. Dont purchase any season tickets.. Dont do anything until these people are out....... | |

We don't for one minute think oystons will accept the bid, the likely reason today he has said they are considering it is because of the Neil diamond concert at the ground tonight..... If there were going to be any demos there then this news would help reduce these. But if they do accept oh boy will there be one hell of a party in Blackpool. | | | |

I'd be tempted to demo at the fact Neil Diamond is playing. | |
