Does the fat lad with the double barrelled name still play for them?

Taylor Fletcher..... plays for Leicester mate.

John Kay rounded the keeper just as the ref blew the full-time whistle then belted it home and swung off the crossbar in front of us in the Roker End flashing his toothless grin. Loved that lad me.

That referee should have been stoned, the twat.

Why were the fans chucking tennis balls onto the pitch, just seen it on BBC Breakfast sports coverage.

I can guarantee he didn't. I'm pretty sure that he hadn't featured for around 2 years at that point.

You do realise the owner pocketed all there money from parachute payments and tv money to build a hotel.

m parachute payments and tv money to build a hotel.

No but that is massive
over simplification. Income drops massively regardless of hotels. Players leave. Contracts get paid off. Hotels and stuff like that is just a case of fans getting carried away. The hotel would have been ignored if they were still Premier league. People just look for someone to blame

Jack was if he saw john kay on the pitch that day!

Seems to me it will be costing me less money to see more matches next season. Won't affect my finances one little bit mate and I always get quite amused when fans worry about things like this. At the end of the day we will still have 11 players turning out wearing red and white and we will all still be on here discussing tactics etc.

The people who will really miss out are those who go to pubs to watch streams of our home and away games and probably some innocent employees of the club who might end up out of a job. I can also see the funny side in the loss of the live streams but the loss of people livelihoods is the only real 'disaster' in getting relegated. The football and the club will go on.



Have people also now realised that 'resting' players in cup games is no guarantee of improved performances in the league yet?

So it wont affect you. Not selfish at all. Not a bit.

Depends what you mean by that, as they spent the best part of 80 years in the top 2 divisions before dropping to the 3rd for the 1st time in the late 70's

T'was a bit of a sky-boy comment like.

Yes, getting his six goal demolitions of Millwall mixed up.

91/1 was 6-2 (Goodman hat-trick) and 95/6 was 6-0 (Russell 4) by which time John Kay has canoed off into the sunset.

Blackpool have never had a big budget. They've been punching above their weight for a number of years.

Stop giving them the bird, then, marra........

He definitely played one time we hammered Millwall, I'm sure of it. I can distinctly remember being behind the goal - Don Goodman got a couple on his debut iirc

Goodman's debut was away at Wolves with 2 sent off. His home debut was against Leicester and he scored a header late on

 

[Geelong Cats]

Craig Revell-Horwood?

Forbes Phillipson Masters?
