A bloke I work with is a Blackpool fan and is sorting me and a pal 2x tickets in the home end. 

We're thinking of going over to Winter Gardens after the game for the Ocean Colour Scene/Inspiral Carpets/Northside gig.

Be careful I think they filled one of their own fans in a season or 2 ago as he sounded like he was from Bolton 😂

Aye I'd be steering clear of that North Stand.

Safe as houses in the south.

They are confident fuckers in this modern day of tightly controlled ticket sales and low chances of decent numbers rocking up in the home end. They weren't so confident in the 70s and 80s and had to live with the fact there'd be BWFC all over the ground.

especially December 77? Thousands all around the ground

Get Miami to tell you about him and his lads turning up at their main pub by coach, (80 something, think it was boxing day) as two young lads watching on from a car that followed our coach, Blackpool weren't confident that day

They'll have fuck all out for this from their main lot.

4 got jail the other week and another load banned.

Plus a few packed in after yon lad died.

[Duck Egg]

I noticed they had less than 10000 of their own fans there on Saturday. For a big game that's poor support.

You would think they would sell more to away fans under such circumstances .....

As opposed to the permanent stand with shit facilities of the old Bloomfield Road. I spot a trend....

Think they've done facilties up for this season and we've new seats and a paint job.

They could easily have 4k fans in there, they let Stockport have that last season.

The owner would rather lose the money than allow it again. 

All that stuff about the police not allowing it is bollocks. 

[gonzo]

North Stand is standing now too btw.

Why doesn't he want it then? Is it a case of not wanting large followings to give the away team an edge or something?

Aye that's it pal.

Stockport out-sang the home crowd and it was proper boisterous as it was first day of the season.

Owner said never again, especially us.

 

[gonzo]

Fucks us like but fair play, wish we did the same. 

Remember Leeds having half our ground?

Fuckin pathetic that was.

Its a shame a compromise can't be reached where we get more tickets but only those in the original 2k seats are allowed to sing.

Or anyone after 2k has a contractual obligation to sing seaside every 15 mins

They could give us an extra 2,000 tickets, but you have to turn up wearing orange.
