If we invite them on us then yes - they will run their fookin guts out - we need to compete at every level and knock the ball around quickly and support the strikers - even Holloway reckons they cant defend.
However we will spend 10 minutes passng the ball square and some people on here will thinks thats brilliant.
Cant start slow and give them the momentum

Sky saw this as a potential Blackpool win otherwise they wouldn't be showing it.
Let's twat them and show Andy Gray we mean Business.

Very nervous. I feel that we need to be less conservative and just go at them but with a sufficient amount of protection (Nigel and Milner or Yaya or Barry). Johnson and Silva to start or alternatively one of them and Adebayor with Tevez behind him.

They'll think they can win. Holloway has talked about having a win or bust philosophy, because draws won't keep them up, and they can't defend. It's an interesting one. Hopefully we can use their 'positivity' against them and exploit the spaces, run at their defenders, get back to playing a bit of nice passing stuff again.

Seasider in peace. Family from Withenshaw, favourite Uncle was City till he died and was buried with his scarf.
We are still not sure if we are any good or not. We can play like Barcelona for one match and look like a Div 1 side the next. For that reason alone you should be nervous. When it clicks it affects every player and fan at the same time and we get in this magical state where we know we are going to win. The chants get more creative, normally pedestrian players start doing bullet passes and tricky moves, the nerve-wracking keeper turns into Gordon chuffin Banks. It's great to be a part of and there is no way we are going back down this year. We will however, take a couple more drubbings before the season is over. We are desperate for a home win for the fans, but the pressure for that seems to work against us. Great to see City ahead of Utd and Everton ahead of Liverpool. Things have needed shaking up in the Prem for a few years now. Enjoy your day out. You will be welcomed and can wear your colors anywhere in town, we have a bit of experience dealing with folks from out of town and making sure they have a good time. Just don't get too depressed if the magic starts to happen.

I'm nervous when we play anyone. Yesterday was the base performance we always seem to have in the locker that was standard fare in the early days at CoMS when we all thought SWP was the saviour. If they play the slow-slow-and-even-slower approach at Blackpool, Armfield's Army will cause problems.

Not just Sky looking for us to fall - did you see how many photographers yesterday were at the end we were defending and how few at the end we were attacking?

think we should win this one, could be a good game, would like to see blackpool stay up, at liverpools expense obviously.
