That’s only half of that stand?

Yeah, maybe I read it wrong thought Matt was saying it’s only us who get reduced allocation, apologies if wrong

I'd be surprised if GMP had a different attitude towards a stand full of Bolton compared to a stand full of Stockport 

Blackpool is Lancashire constabulary.

Ah right 

Thought everyone got reduced last season, not just us

Still 

I'd be surprised if GMP had a different attitude towards a stand full of Bolton compared to a stand full of Stockport 

Don’t forget it’s not GMP, it’s Lancs. The same constabulary that made us kick off at half 12 against Morecambe on the same day that they failed to spot the issue of a load of Blackpool fans rocking up to The Manchester after they’d played Burnley.

Yeah I thought Derby got the full stand but memory is playing tricks. Felt sure somebody got the full stand though.

Only lost one of their last 17 league games, this lot.

I usually think we should win every game, but I’d be happy for us not to lose this one.

Wonder how many defeats we've had in that period.

Obviously Oxford, Derby presumably.

aye

happy to start 3 forwards at home but for this think I'd rather start with matete in the middle and stick McAtee or whoever on later for fresh legs up top or if we're chasing a goal

so not too dissamilar I guess from Orient away but with Matete in for Arfield

[radcliffe white]

Draw wouldn’t be bad tbh

would like Matete & Vic to start

Yeah, draw away at Charlton will be a good result. I'm tipping Charlton for play offs, thought they looked great in the 3-3 draw at our place.

It's games like this Sunday gone where we'll feel we've dropped points.

i think we'll win 

[Arrested development]

We have a good recent record there. Need to pick something up. Take a point but we are more than capable of beating these.

Wouldn't argue there.

Certainly the former.

Around 1250 sold which is a surprise given there’s no Saturday 3pm away until November, perhaps folk aren’t sold yet and are waiting

[Big E]

Bank holiday and end of summer holidays. Me thinks folks are away

mad that after this the next one is 9th November

be a big scramble for that as well being Stockport

again, anyone who attends Shrewsbury (carabao), Barrow (efl), Crawley (12.30 on tv), Northampton (midweek) or Brum (midweek) should be at the front the queue for that

If only the club had some way of knowing who'd been to those games.

Don’t think kick off is confirmed but could be wrong

Checked and whilst it's not on our official fixture list it's coming up on my auto generated EFL Google calendar listing as 3rd September

Any points in the smoke are a bonus in my world... I was delighted with the Leyton result and Wrexham followed the Parky script... three points would be dream land but I won't complain at the one

Amazing how stats can be misleading.  As you say they only lost 1 of their last 15 games last season, but they only won 4 and drew 10.  Going back to December they won 4 out of their last 28 games!  Drew an amazing 15, lost 9.  Less than a point a game, relegation form.

Even since Nathan Jones took over in Feb they only won 4 out of 16 (2 v relegated teams). 

A draw isn't to be sniffed at but let's not overrate them, very few wins this year and only scored 2 goals in 3 games this season, both were late winners.  A game we should be looking to win to make up for dropping 2 points last week.
