Loads of NSC posters were on here straight after the transfer window telling everyone who had concerns we hadnt sorted a decent squad for season start they should be eating humble pie. We had a better squad than last year. Quality all over the pitch. Play offs realistic.

Im sorry. We look set for a relegation battle on current evidence. Players all over the place. System looks a shambles. Keeper woeful. Strikers innafective. Sami has no idea what his best side is.

Worried for Saturday.

We signed a lot of players but they were pretty much all cheaper alternatives to the squad of last season and almost all unproven at Championship level.

I did SCOFF at those that suggested this squad was anything close to ulloa, bridcutt, bridge, buckley, vicente etc. No where ****in near.

100% THIS.

This season could quite easily be an utter disaster.

Untested players at this level, untested manager at this level and a very inexperienced coaching team.

Unfortunately the board didn't want to push the boat out to sign quality players that we could have got (e.g. Clayton and Murray) and it looks like it could be a bleak season. As a result of this the attendance for Saturday will be the lowest league gate at the Amex for a couple of years.

Well i like our squad and the football has been great regardless of results....It'll come good im sure :)

Gung ho football and bad results will still get you relegated. Our defence is a shambles. Its ok though because even though we used to never lose with Oscar it was boring.

Our team is supposedly good on paper, but the evidence seems to be that it isn't good enough on the pitch.

I don't think the attendance will be the lowest, especially due to this result. The reason I think we'll have lower attendances is because of the boring football last season. Because it's Blackpool, people will feel we have a chance of getting a result. If we draw/lose, that's when attendances will decline.
