The only time i ever got 'nicked' at a match was after a seventies friendly at Blackpool .......... i also passed my driving test there in the early nineties ...... i luv the place

....... C'mon Blackpool!

Looks like they've only got half a ground though!

I spent many a happy day in Blackpool and they're a team I always look out for. Don't know how I'd feel about them if they actually got to the Prem as all the other teams I have a soft spot for are totally shite! :)

Anyway, if they did, there's no chance that we'd play them on a Sat or Sunday. It is nailed on for Monday night as it is with Liverpool, Everton, Rags. No way would the police have it these days I'm afraid.

Police have never moved us to monday night for any you mention. Early Saturday and Sunday if anything. Sat evening at Burnely, that was unexpected!

That the real reason why Andy Morrisson testimonial was cancelled? Or was it just the agent being greedy? He would have made a fortune that day.

Blackpool fans called Andy Morrisson "The Marine"

Do you remember Micky Walsh's goal of the season, about 75ish...?

There used to be bags of trouble at Bloomfield Road, I was at the game against Bolton when a lad got killed and the police kept everyone back in the ground, my mum went mental because it was on the news that a young lad had died and of course she presumed it was me.

A Blackpool fan was stabbed and later died. A plaque in his memory was recently unveiled at Bloomfield Road. You're right about the police keeping everyone in the ground. There was a photo on the front page of the Lancashire Telegraph at the time showing the entire Kop End 'under arrest'!

My girlfriend and her family are huge Blackpool fans and I have seen them about 10 times this season - Charlie Adam was bought from Rangers - a centre midfield and he is pretty special.
Burgess is a city fan but us really quite shit at football!

As for half a ground the new stand has been put up now so they have an attendance of around 13000 but the pitch is always crap

Jesus can you imagine going to the two stand stadium that is Gloomfield Road.

(last time I saw it, 18 months ago, it only had 2 stands I guess it still does)
