Ref blew all night for some soft challenges. We were unlucky overall as Rovers ( not inc pen ) scored with their only 2 chances.. If Callum Jones isn't playing first team football for us within the next 3 seasons then my names not BlackpoolJack.
 
I did notice in during my limited time watching the game that the referee seemed to be quite whistle happy when it came to decisions in favour of the opposition side.

I didn’t catch the second goal but I wouldn’t be in the least bit surprised to learn that it came from a set piece courtesy of a free kick.

I thought he looked he might be a decent player in a little while. Not short on confidence taking on the opposition. 🤞

No , a long ball over the top well finished by their centre forward .
Some in the ground think it was offside .
Second half they deserved to win .
 
Good to see the boys last ,
We played pretty well first half without creating any clear cut chances .
We had a goal chalked off for offside .
Callum Jones with Carter Heywood gave them problems down the left side .

Callum Jones looks a talented lad good pace control likes to attack the fullback .
We did struggle through the centre to have sustained pressure .
To concede right on half time was a blow .

Second half we thought we equalised only to see the goal chalked off for a foul on their keeper .
After that Blackburn were by far the better side .
Ref gave them a really soft penalty for a challenge just inside the box .
Thomas Wright made a brilliant save .
The Blackburn centre forward Valentin Joseph who wasn't so good first half came out like a different player big strong held the ball up to bring in other runners ,
Joseph ran onto a long ball to score the second .

For me Callum Jones did well , Carter Heywood , Brogram Popham , Kai Rhodes did OK.

Blackburn were the better side some of their passing movement was very good particularly the interplay down their right .

A good night out with a reasonable crowd
So pleasing to see lots of enthusiastic youngsters there .
