    The Kick It Out campaign and petition

    Just to answer one or two questions about yesterdays Kick It Out stall. The initiative came from a small group of fans, including season ticket holders and we included the petition mainly because of the clubs complete silence since Gus Poyet made his comments about Suarez, and racism in...

    Can't we have a seperate message board for......

    .....people who want to constantly complain and comment about how their corporate hospitality, the 1901 club and car parking priorities aren't quite coming up to scratch.

    It's the end of the world..err no it's not..oh yes it is.

    The evangelical broadcaster, Harold Camping, who left followers crestfallen by his failed prediction that last Saturday would be Judgement Day says he miscalculated. Harold Camping said it had "dawned" on him that God would spare humanity "hell on Earth for five months" and the apocalypse would...

    Interesting thread regarding Falmer

    on Blackpool's message board. Some interesting (and some slightly innaccurate) observations on our new stadium. There is also a reference to Martin Perry and his ownership of some land where they had a new ground planned some years ago. Anybody got any more details on this. Link : avftt...

    Espn

    I'm not a subscriber to any digital provider like Sky or Virgin, so is it possible to get ESPN directly via a digi-box. Can you just suscribe for a short period? How much does it cost ? Thanks

    Falmer Pitch

    I seem to remember hearing, (can't remember from whom), that the pitch at Falmer was to be sown in November. I have looked at the schedule that was printed in a match programme last season, and it does say "Pitch Preparation" during Autumn 2010. Now I am no gardener and don't pretend to have a...

    Peterborough game

    I thought I saw a thread yesterday saying tickets are now available. Is this correct because there is nothing on the club website about them.

    Soloman Burke

    Just thought I would give this guy a mention since his death was announced today. I don't think a lot of people were really familiar with him, or his music, because he was a little underated in spite of a bit of a revival a few years back. If you don't know the music of this maestro of soul...

    The heavy price of success.

    This is Tim Rich writing in today's Independent about Karl Oyston, the chairman at Blackpool : ....he had not enjoyed the months that followed their play-off victory at Wembley. Blackpool had prepared for the Premier League by doing virtually nothing until last week when half a dozen...

    Today's Independent.

    Short article today. You can almost taste the sea salt in League One Now if those in League One could just tread water for a season, and wait for the good ship Pompey to sink a few more fathoms, football on the South Coast will never have been such fun. As it is, Plymouth began the campaign by...

    play-off finals not at Wembley this season

    Don't know if this has had a mention before, but this article was in yesterday's Independent :- A fixture pile-up already. Yet more fixture congestion and the new season has not even begun. At the back end of it will come the unlikely scenario of the FA Cup final being played on a regular...

    44 Years of Hurt.....

    ....Never stopped me dreaming. It really has been over 4 decades of pain, hasn't it ? Bad luck, injuries, red cards and fluke goals. It's as though we used up all our luck in one go in 1966. So, just to get an idea of how the pressure on England to win it again has gradually built up over the...

    Just back from Wembley

    A great day out with the Blackpool fans. Pre match was very interesting. On the one side you have beer + hot weather + Cardiff fans on a day out in London = grown men falling over in street 2 hours before kick off. On the other side the Blackpool fans were much more of a mixture of youg and old...

    Just stop a minute...

    With all these threads about players who are leaving, players that we should sign and the goings on at other clubs, i think that we need to stop just for minute and think about what we have at our club. To start with, we saw an absolute cracker of a goal yesterday. If that had been scored in the...

    Tonights League 1 matches

    Four games tonight:- Carlisle v Millwall. Carlisle 3 points above us and a team we should be looking to finish above so Millwall to win. MK Dons v Swindon. Result not really relevant, but plenty of injuries and red cards for Swindon could help us on Saturday. Oldham v Leyton Orient. Tricky...

    Brighton pubs tomorrow night

    Can't get to Colchester tomorrow. Don't have Sky tv. Can anyone suggest a good pub or venue that might have some atmosphere to watch the game in Brighton rather than Hove (although the free chilli is tempting). My local is showing the game, but the place is a bit dead to tell the truth.
