Blackpool's Gary MacKenzie: "We have nothing to fear from Brighton"

[Goldstone Rapper]

Gary Mackenzie says you’ll see a different Blackpool against Brighton this weekend.

The Seasiders have had to battle through two home games against teams with a direct style on a shocking Bloomfield Road pitch this week.

But on Saturday they face an in-form Brighton side on a carpet of a surface on the South coast.

Blackpool have done well away from home under Paul Ince, and Scottish defender Mackenzie is looking forward to the weekend’s game.

“You’ll see a totally different side to us on Saturday,” he said.

“We have nothing to fear going to Brighton.

“We have players who can express themselves on a good pitch against a good passing team.

“We are all looking forward to Saturday now, we might actually be able to string a couple of passes together.”

To be fair, they did string a couple of passes together

He was correct, we certainly did see a VERY different blackpool.

 

[portslade seagull]

Well they got off the coach but forgot they were meant to be playing a football match

 

[METALMICKY]

The only thing we had to fear from him was him cleaning out the Mrs Piglets pies! Were his shorts too big or or did he look a bit of a lard arse? Not quite Andy Reed but shows promise

I must have blinked and missed that bit.

I must have blinked and missed that bit.

It was that 10 minute spell in the second half where they got a couple of corners and had a shot on target

palace said this on St Patrick's before the massacre.

Blackpool said it today.

Let's hope we hear all about the amazing Amex pitch in the play-offs and then the not quite as amazing Wembley one in the final too.

 

[Seagull on the wing]

'We're Brighton and Hove Albion....and we'll score when we want............well done the Northstand today...

 

[Cian]

It was that 10 minute spell in the second half where they got a couple of corners and had a shot on target

And generally ran around like headless chickens with no idea of what to do with the roundy leather thing they'd got a hold of.

"I don't think Brighton are as good as us. I think we're better than Brighton were last year and hopefully it can continue."

"This is a big club"

Bless him!

An enjoyable read!

I was thinking of starting a 'Guv'nor, Guv'nor, what's the score...' chant, but the irony would have been lost on Ince I reckon

I'm well aware of that..

I think the colour of the pitch threw them

 

[Joe Gatting's Dad]

I think they deserve some credit for trying to play football and not kick lumps out of us which some other sides would have done.

Also, credit to the referee for only needing to give a total of seven free kicks in the whole game.

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

They would have kicked us....if they could have caught us!
