Blackpool support was pretty good yesterday. They had a drummer and it helped.
Must admit though that I'd rather do without one.
Blackpool also big orange (tangerine?) flags, about 8 of them, which the ballboys waved every time they scored.
Arrived at the ground 10 minutes before kick off to find out that they had sold out of progs.
Have got a full collection of this season so far - shame to spoil it now.
Anyone got a spare or the one they've read but won't be keeping?- would be much appreciated, will pay face value of course.
PM...
There has been talk of us taking 30,000+ to Wem.. er Cardiff if we get to the Play Off Final.
Will this be an AMS game? if so how many members are there currently? I believe that I heard that there were 10,000.
If it is AMS then that could bring in some extra (and welcome) tenners and fivers...
Two seconds would be a vast improvement on most people who have to wait and ensure that their Dad, brother , mum or whoever is coming as well and then stop in front of me to look at what is going on on the pitch.
People will always move before the end of a game / half (I do it myself when...

After seaons off dispproval from me I finally heard the bloke to our left tell his son to wait until the ball had gone out of play before moving on Saturday.
You're right gazwag it has been covered before - many times.
Charlie Oatway said a couple of seasons ago that in his opinion it was one of the worst things about playing at Withdean, like you he said couldn't understand the need to get home a few minutes early.
Was this really the full scale event that is reported here?
I sit in Block E - same row as Ballonboy, admitedly the other side of the aisle but much closer to it. I didn't see anything.
Must have been concenttrating on the game :-)
Same at Reading - for STHs.
No money taken on the turnstile - you have to go the ticket office even if you get there 5 minutes before kick off. They do have people to tear your tickrt in half though.
Where were you on May 5th 1979? Bloody part time supporter - we were on for our first ever stint in the top division and you didn't even bother to go.
That game must go down as one of my best memories of all time, not just the result and promotion but the genuine friendly welcome afforded us by...
