Well if McDonald has taken advice on the job I would personally be amazed if he goes anywhere near stepping over that door step at Bloomfield Road. |

Surely, even in the very bottom of their heart of hearts they must no that no fan is in the remotest bit interested in the dated of fixtures, cup draws or whether Jose Cubero has been selected to play for Costa Rica. They'd be better taking everything off line until we get the name of a manager because all their doing at the moment is riling fans and arguably losing a Hell of a lot of followers! |

Looks like Basbob will be having a frustrating day - Surrey 333-6 - draw written all over it! |

Whoever is in charge of that account should stick their tweets where the sun don't shine! Who really cares less about fixtures when we have no manager, players, coaches etc etc
Surely someone at the club has some sense and can update us on something which we at least have a bit of an interest in! |

Ribble - I entirely agree - it's probably been what he's been waiting for - he would then say no one can do business whilst he's not at the club and therefore no business will be done. God help the new manager! |

Reply | 'Meet Blackpool' - a Millwall Preview
at 13:10 28 May 2015
Seems to be a running theme .. here's Fleetwood's preview of us!!
Name: Blackpool Football Club
Founded: 1887
Stadium: Bloomfield Road
Capacity: 17,338
Manager: Vacant
Last season: 24th in the Championship
A Fylde Coast derby awaits Fleetwood Town when they meet local rivals Blackpool in what will be the first ever league meeting between the two sides.
The Tangerines will play their football in the third tier next season following relegation from the Championship in May.
Currently without a manager after the resignation of Lee Clark at the end of the season, Pool will be hoping to bounce back after finishing bottom of the second tier.
Despite the troubles of their Championship campaign, the Bloomfield Road faithful will hope that Spanish midfielder Andrea Orlandi will inspire them next term.
Barcelona born Orlandi began his playing career at Basque side Deportivo Alaves, where he made two senior appearances before sealing a move to Barcelona in 2005.
His time with his hometown club would see him become a regular in the reserve side at the Catalan giants, and he did manage to make one senior appearance at the Nou Camp.
Andrea’s next move would see him arrive on British shores to link up with Swansea City in 2007, who were then managed by compatriot Roberto Martinez.
A further five years would be spent in South Wales, as Orlandi helped the Swans to promotion to the Premier League in 2011.
He later moved to Brighton and Hove Albion in 2012, and netted six times in 49 appearances for the Seagulls, before Blackpool was his next destination in the summer of 2014.
Having finished the season with four goals, the 30-year-old is currently one of just nine senior contracted players at the club.
The two sides have met each other once before, in an FA Cup third round tie at Highbury in January 2012.
A hat-trick from Matt Phillips, alongside strikes from Lomana LuaLua and Tom Ince, were added to by a consolation goal from Jamie Vardy as Pool ran out 5-1 winners against the then conference Cod Army. |

Slowly starting to think that those fans who went on this ride for the last 8 years will have enjoyed the best this club can ever offer. Must be like Coventry and Portsmouth fans now knowing it's unlikely they'll ever return to the glory days. |

Someone asked me this question yesterday and I honestly didn't know - would seem the hotel, estate agents, magazines etc are all relying on football money and as of this season it's tough to see how that will make any money? |

I said as soon as I saw we were doomed for League One and they were flying high in that league that the natural course of events would see us relegated and them promoted. They've had 5/6 difficult and probably soul destroying years but well done to their owners for investing and sticking with a plan rather than decimating a club from within with petty minded, tight fisted, negligible acts of destruction.
Messrs Hemmings and Pilley must feel like the dogs that have had their day. |

If this is what Caldwell is going to bring to Wigan Athletic this season then even with no players we might finish above them!!
Wigan Athletic boss Gary Caldwell is confident new signing David Perkins will give the club the lift it needs following relegation to League One, reports Manchester Evening News.
The 32-year-old will join his new employers on July 1.
“It’s a no brainer for me,” said Caldwell to MEN.
“I’ve always been impressed with his energy and willingness to give 100 per cent, and we feel he can contribute greatly this season.
“I’m delighted to add him to the squad. We’ve been looking at him for a while, I’m sure he can do a good job for us.” |

Reply | Expectations for next season
at 11:31 24 May 2015
I think today may be a wake up call for a lot of our fans who think League One is a lot worse than the Championship (which in all honesty was no great shakes last season). I think any expectation can only be fulfilled if we find those half dozen players who are better than most in League One. We proved when we went up last time that you don't need a team full of world beaters just solid, experienced players, some good quality youngsters and a few who are head and shoulders above others at this level, My expectations are that the team we build will contain little or any of this! |
