If you thought the Albion's squad was thin on the ground...

Blackpool will finish 24th for sure.

I don't know what they're worried about. The season doesn't start until next month, and window doesn't close until the end of August. Those fans need to stop being such bedwetters and trust the owners who, let's not forget, were responsible for helping the club get to the Premier League, and their club made the largest profit in the most recently announced finances for the championship.

They still have time to buy players

 

[Theodoridi]

But the Blackpool fans, certainly any I've come into contact with, feel that Oyston is taking money from the club rather than investing in the playing squad and facilities.

The frightening thing for Blackpool is not one of the eight is serious championship quality. They have a LOT of work on their hands...

Even Millwall have a better squad then them

Blackpool currently@ 5/4 to be relegated this season!

Where's all their Premier League and parachute payments gone?? They weren't exactly big spenders in their brief stay in the top flight!

And helping them get relegated?

I had it in my mind that Jose Riga had been sacked at Charlton, but he wasn't. He chose to leave, for Blackpool. What was he THINKING!?

 

[MarioOrlandi]

Mmm Oyston has not invested in the facilities, so who developed three sides of their ground?

£11M went as a payment to a company owned by Mr Oyston (senior) whilst they were in the Premier League , for all we know this could be what he spent on getting the side promoted and he was getting his investment repaid.

Apparently he has a penchant for towns and cities that begin with a 'B' and have a pier and/or tower.

Another Blackpool player may be leaving. Sheffield United are on the verge of signing MacMahon.

Jose Riga did a good job at Charlton, they are another club who have a bell end as a chairman

If this was Brighton anyone who dared mention it would be branded a bedwetter.

Then a flurry of "It's JULY. Jeezz.." Posts would follow.

No, they really wouldn't. Blackpool have EIGHT players. Its really not a comparable situation.

Only a bedwetter would post something as silly as that. You're comparing us to the situation at Blackpool? Really?

Blimey guys it was a joke (albeit clearly not very good)!

Bit touchy aren't we!
