Season 21/22 The Official Blackpool FC v Swansea City FC Match Thread

[JackSomething]

75% possession

1 shot - off target

Whats the point

Do you remember those halcyon days under Roberto and Brendan when certain Swans fans would complain that we'd endlessly pass the ball around without creating anything?

I'm assuming that watching this side has killed them all off by now...

 

[Bluenile]

Martin has zero idea how to coach an attacking team. Wait for the usual guff in the post match press conference. The numpty thinks we all believe him.

Whats the point

It’s the ‘Swansea Way’ apparently. That holy grail of footballing genius that gets people noticed by big clubs who never watch us but look at stats.

The bloke on Radio Lancashire is spot on in his assessment of us,

4 minutes into the game you gift and I mean gift a goal.... League Two stuff that is.

 

[JackFish]

It doesn’t help when we keep going 1-0 down in the first ten minutes and then teams can sit in and hit us on the counter. They’ve created far better chances than us after scoring too.

[Swanjaxs]

And to think we criticise them lot up the road for lumping the ball up the park all game, anything is better than this pile of shyt

 

[TheLoneRanger]

They're making Madine look like John fvcking Charles.

28 games for C**diff, not 1 fvcking goal.

Whats the point

I missed it as I was splashing in the hotel swimming pool. Sounds like I’m better off going back in. How stupid does he have to be to realise you don’t win games without creating and taking chances. Only crumb of hope, we are a one half team at best. Let’s hope it’s this half.

 

[Nocountryforoldjack]

It's not the losing its the manner in which we lose, just folding like a sports direct camping chair.

You don't win games by giving away shit soft goals in the first minutes

Aye both ends are grim a lot of the time.

Its just dreadful isn't it.

300+ passes - each of them as pointless as the one before

If you were Neil Critchley you would hope that we do exactly the same in the second half.

Sadly we are more likely to be two down before the second half is too old

But some see that as playing the opposition off the park.

It wouldnt be the first time this season I have taken to Twitter after a game and concluded that people are watching a different game to me

Which is what I've said whichever league we were in. Just to get to basics. If Martin thinks there is development, then I can't see any player at the moment that fits the bill. Forget how many players we need at the end of the season, this style is doomed to failure. You move the ball to move the opposition to create gaps and hit at pace. We are nowhere near the squad to play that. Lacking in defence, midfield and attack
