On todays performance we would have beaten a decent side so Blackpool had no chance. It just shows what a difference it makes playing on a football pitch rather than Blackpool Beach.
The OP is probably harping back to the 1953 cup final and Matthews Mortenson and Mudie, what have they won since that day, not a lot to my knowledge certainly no more than us. We got promoted to the old Division 1 once and they have got promoted to the new Div 1 once so what is the difference.
Apparently it takes no longer to get away from The Amex than Arsenal Chelsea Tottenham etc as regards queueing for trains. We do have the added bonus that you can stay and have a drink and let the queue die down after the game.
