Blackpool Making Excuses Already!

[Merseyside Seagull]

Blackpool team coach is stuck in horrendius traffic on the M6. GTF moaning an hour ago, that they are still an hour away from Knutsford so won't be in Brighton until after 10.00 tonight. "not the best prep for a tough game after sun/wed games"

Ah, bless them!!!

 

[Aseros]

Should have flown.

 

[Brighton till i die]

f***ing stupid travelling the day before the game when its the other end of the country anyway. A 40min flight on thursday would have put them on a good stead for the game. Ahh well !!

 

[Gazwag]

I hope the fire alarms in the hotel don't go off tonight and they get a good nights sleep

Brilliant - where are they staying?

Horsham travelodge?

Have seen teams at the Hospitality Inn before. Let's hope they are even more hospitable with us.

Get the phone number for their hotel rooms and call them every 30 minutes.

P.S Thanks Charlie Oatway for that idea

Wouldn't they have known the traffic on a Friday on the M6 and M25 is usually bad ?

Some unrelated trivia - I just saw some blackpool fans arrive at the Wheatsheaf in Cuckfield, looks like they did find a hotel then.

I wish they had said.

And they have got to do it all again next week when they play Palace at Selhurst.

The same thing happened to Donny. Poor planning from these tinpot Northern teams.

aaahhh the Wheatsheaf, my mate used to work behind the bar there back in the day,... we regularly went over and mixed with Fish from Marillion on a number of occasions ( had a house nearby ).... wild nights.

Its all shit on a Friday afternoon, including the M1 north and south.

Should have flown into Gatters.

Should have flown into Gatters.

And then pulled in for full body searches by Edna

Blackpool watching us watching them

In hindsight it would of been better for them if they had flown but we would be foolish to think that this will affect their preperation.
They will be travelling by luxury coach and will be well up for this trip; when they eventually arrive and have a good nights sleep they will be up for this.
We have a very tough game tomorrow, get behind the team.

It's also where the band wrote Season's End with H.
