22/23 The Official Blackpool v Swansea Match Thread

[Fireboy]

If you want to watch fast flowing football why do you watch the swans then?

I watch the swans because I love watching them, because it gives me a good inner feeling that will never be felt by 'supporting' a big team.

Yes we are s**t now and again but there is nothing better than supporting your local team through thick and thin, perhaps its because I've supported them through that thick and thin for almost 45 years that I'm chilled when it comes to putting my opinion across and I've had it easy compared to others who frequent this board.

I get that you have an opinion but imo you obviously are used to success, I'm certain in another 20 years in the championship and other leagues your opinion might change.

I don't know Fireboy, we have the 8th highest budget in the league, we should certainly expect better performances.. I'm not knocking today's performance though

Sorry skip but that's obviously bollox as the yanks put fuck all in, ws have to sell to buy.

Why because I have an opinion... If you think that was an outstanding performance then good luck to you, like I said it's papering over the cracks. Still really shaky at the back and against a better team we would of been put to the sword.

I'll keep following the swans through thick and thin like I always have and I'll call it like I see it thanks.

I watch them because they are my local team that I fell in love with.

I started going under John Hollins so I've seen my fair share of shite but yes I've been spoilt under the Martinez/Rodgers/laudrup years, is it wrong to want that back.

No it isn't mate but as I've said getting older makes you more chilled and I know some won't like this but we have to know our place, we are a mid table championship side who with a bit of luck could get back upto the PL, until then I will take every win and loss with a pinch of salt and imo we all should but we arent all the same

 

[K23]

Yesssss.

Um I feel shy now. Shall I make another vid or not?
So glad we won. Three massive points today.

Your avatar just reminded me that I've a couple of Scotch eggs in the fridge

Reminded me of the hot air balloon flight I took on Thursday morning

3 points and a first win there for 30 years.

Just enjoy it.

Very enjoyable, but It's even more than that - It's 43years.

that was my first Swans game unfortunatley cos i only went by using my dad's Blackpool season ticket because he'd sadly passed at 49 a couple of weeks before, its gone in a flash King Curt scored that day for the mighty Swans.

Genuine question.
I've seen it mentioned in this thread any somewhere else about us having the 8 th highest budget in the league.
Where has that info come from as I'd be surprised if clubs divulge that info.

Yeah Skippyjack mentioned it and I said it was bollox.

There's at least 5 teams in receipt of parachute payments, then you have the likes of Stoke, Boro, Sunderland, even Preston and our little cousins who are bankrolled each season.

Our income is probably bottom 8. Wouldn't surprise me if our wage bill is mid table, but we're never too 8 any more. We were, but not now.

Bloke on final score said we hadnt won since 92 and I trusted him!
