A meeting of two of the most out of form teams in League 1.
BWFC – last 12 matches – L L L L W D L L L L D D
Blackpool – last 12 matches – D L L W L L L L D L L D
Both sides – W1 D3 L8
Dreadful record for both teams.
So no pre-match comments about the opponents being a good side, please.
Blackpool are downright average but we do have a habit of making average sides look good – Shrewsbury, Bristol R, MK Dons, Burton, Lincoln, Accrington etc.
Can we please approach this game positively – go out and try to win.
Such is the state of us at the moment, I am in 2 minds whether to go or not. My away trips this season have been disastrous.
Surely, we have something in us that can bring out a performance.

Why wouldn't you go david? It might be a pleasant day. Walk along the prom, fish and chips, an ice cream. Maybe a pint, or two and then you could watch the donkeys later.  |

BWFC – last 12 matches – L L L L W D L L L L D D Blackpool – last 12 matches – D L L W L L L L D L L D Both sides – W1 D3 L8 Sure the forms spell out a nice Welsh village i use to holiday in, not sure which one. I dont want to put the dampener on the match thread but beyond caring. I dont mean that to sound like a teenager with a bad attitude but we win and its annoyingly too late, we draw and its too little and we lose and its too poor. Best we can hope for is a real spirited game where we show our fighting spirit but thats been lacking. The rest of this season feels like watching Keith Hill dig his own grave. |

Chris O'Grady to give kids a piggy back on the beach for £1 and we put Dennis the Donkey on the left wing. |

Can't understand someone who rates Warnock in any context, yet chooses to make fun of one of our most promising players, whose first 30 minutes v Wycombe and his goal v Tranmere marked him out clearly as one for the future.

Hes 34. Ah i see, better explain. Didnt mean Poltic at all. Joke was about swapping a donkey for a striker(joke being comparing striker to an actual donkey) Thing is i quite like OGrady too. Just not as a winger. Dont get that one bit. Chose "Dennis" as alliteration, didnt even think of Politic. But yeah think the job Warnock did at Rotherham was unbelievable, then got Cardiff up and real unlucky not to keep them up but £100M in the bank for his effort. He may not be Klopp or Pep but guy can organise a defence and get a team playing. I dont think theres many managers with more promotions on their CV than Warnock. |

He may not be Klopp or Pep but guy can organise a defence and get a team playing. I dont think theres many managers with more promotions on their CV than Warnock. Just on Warnock as manager (Aged 71) Clubs managed 15 Games 1481 Won 595 Drew 409 Lost 477 Win % 40.2 Bruce Rioch (Aged 71) Clubs managed 10 Games 807 Won 338 Drew 220 Lost 249 Win % 40.8 Not going into stats of Keith Hill but he’s currently on 38.6% win ratio at lower league clubs Barnsley and Rochdale, that’s hardly comparable!!! I suppose stats mean nothing as they’re not comparing eggs with eggs! I mean,Warnock stayed in the English game far longer than BR and had many a stint in the Prem with Sheff Utd / Crystal Palace / QPR / Cardiff etc but he also had more Play Off wins than any other manager Bruce knows what it’s like to enter a struggling club ready for administration (Middlesboro) and his football is exciting, cavalier, forward thinking If it was a choice, my heart would go with Bruce in a heartbeat (scuse the pun) but if it’s results and an upturn in immediate fortune it would have to be Warnock That’s where FV should invest their next big spend. If Warmock’s wife will allow him to get off his drive on lawn mower, I do think he would take us on Go get him Mrs Brittan 😂 |

Correct, never mind owdlad, but just to let you know that it's sunny and warm here in the Algarve. I just hope tonight's game goes ahead, despite the weather. I hate to jump on the defeat bandwagon, so I'm going for a 1-1 draw. I've no comment regarding Hill and Fetcher, the job was a headache right from the start. |

Not sure if its pathetic fallacy but ive not known a season where our away fans have been treated to such awful conditions. Seems each time we hit the road its subject to pitch inspection or 90 mins of icy sideways rain. And all to see the worst away team thats ever been.
Fair play to you all. Deserve better. Really hope we shake it up a bit. Drop Luke Murphy. Get attacking on the flanks. Just try and give the fans something to clap to keep them warm.

Drop Luke Murphy. Get attacking on the flanks. Well he's dropped Daryl Murphy instead. O'Grady replacing him upfront. Fleming replaced by Bunney. Bryan in instead of Mellis. Looks like a back 3 with Lowe (?) and Bunney as wing backs |
