Blackpool.

Final game currently on hold after 48 minutes, as the fans are currently staging a sit down protest.

EDIT : Match now abandoned.

Loved the bloke in his mobility scooter joining in

And the FA not bothered - what a surprise.

According to this, just 4 pints would have stopped me seeing Cambridge United play

Yet under John Beck, that would probably be the minimum needed.

Remember under Hoddle in 91 in the FA cup 4th round, when we went to Cambridge, who at the time were managed by Beck and playing awful dull long ball football, and we played them off the park for a 3-0 win and the Cambridge fans were singing "we want football" after watching our silky passing side play them off the pitch.

It could have been 6-0 to us that day easily except for the Cambridge keeper Vaughan who played a blinder.

One goal scored by a semi-conscious Calderwood.

The lyrics to "NYC Clap" are particularly thoughtful, although they don't quite cover the STI issues that the title raises.

That's easily the best bit. I'm not quite sure if it's intended to give permission, or to avoid shock if some deviant sings something not on the sheet.

Dunno if I want our club to succeed at all costs.  Muffs gamble has paid off with the windfall from the new tv deal, but their 15m loss to get from league 1 to championship was followed by 10m loss to stay in the championship.

25m over 2 years with accumulated losses of 30m and 25m of loans from the russian, some of which are at 3%

Be interesting to see this years losses.

Very susceptible to political 'incidents' which could cause the Russki to fuck off as quick as Black did.

I hate all this arse speak, why not just say, "we took a gamble and got promoted"?
