Ozwin Posted 29 July 2010 Posted 29 July 2010 Madness, surely certs for relegation? Holloway's been coming across as a right dick on SSN whenever I've seen him too. He's obviously frustrated, can't see him lasting the season tbh.
Shrenchel Posted 29 July 2010 Posted 29 July 2010 Need to stop going on so jewish pretty sharpish or else they're clearly going down. To be fair they'll probably piss the Championship the year after though if they've still got most their Sky telly money left coupled with the £44 million parachute payments. Load of bollocks really.
davieG Posted 29 July 2010 Posted 29 July 2010 If they brought in 4/5 players on PL money they'll probably have to upgrade loads of others and will still get relegated which will eat up the parachute payments. The best thing for Blackpool is they've got their new stand out of it. Let's face it they had no notion they would get promoted and probably planned to avoid relegation last year so are totally unprepared for this on and off the pitch.
dandannieldanok Posted 29 July 2010 Posted 29 July 2010 I've said this before but I think they'll do a lot better than Derby did a few seasons back and will follow the same pattern as Burnley last season; some good early home wins until teams adjust to them and they'll eventually get relegated. I think they'll surprise a few people, it is not out of the question that the players in their squad can make the step-up and compete in enough games to get a respectable points tally.

Aren't their first 5/6 games are all away though due to their stand being unfinished?
Corky Posted 29 July 2010 Posted 29 July 2010 Aren't their first 5/6 games are all away though due to their stand being unfinished? They switched the first game to away but three of the next four were away anyway, so four of the first five on the road.

Difference is, Burnley didn't look a bad outfit and produced some good displays in the cup, didn't they reach the semi finals of the league cup in their promotion season?? Blackpool's squad looks very weak, to quote Alan Pardew "they'll get raped".
Ozwin Posted 29 July 2010 Author Posted 29 July 2010 They're 10/1 to get 10 or less points. Definately worth a fiver.
Unit Posted 30 July 2010 Posted 30 July 2010 They're 10/1 to get 10 or less points. Definately worth a fiver. i emailed paddy power asking the odds for them not winning a SINGLE game in prem next season, they gave me 25-1.... I was hoping for at least 100-1, the bookies don't fancy blackpool.
Fox92 Posted 30 July 2010 Posted 30 July 2010 They can't attract anyone to the club, they'll get beat near enough every week, Charlie Adam will most probably join a club like Wigan/Bolton, and Blackpool will get relegated. That 10/1 bet sounds good.

And they thumped Wigan 4-1 in the League Cup before only just losing 4-3 away at Stoke. I don't really know why I'm arguing the point because I couldn't really give a crap how they do, in fact I actually hope they do appallingly badly because it would be funny, however I just believe they'll do better than expected and for a certain period of time, they'll be propped up by their home form.
Leicester Rule! Posted 30 July 2010 Posted 30 July 2010 Don't forget they've got Francis Jeffers on trial and will probably sign him up. Can see him saving them

J.Lisemore Posted 30 July 2010 Posted 30 July 2010 They haven't even got the same squad as last season...they've lost players
Guest Bilo Posted 30 July 2010 Posted 30 July 2010 Allegedly they fancy Marlon Harewood as well as a couple of other strikers from abroad. May have taken the hint about DJ.
lildave3 Posted 30 July 2010 Posted 30 July 2010 Jon Stead and Marlon Harewood - Watch out Man City, you're being outdone in this transfer window.
poopbutt Posted 31 July 2010 Posted 31 July 2010 25-1 to not win a game, that's terrible Newspaper gossip Blackpool's promotion heroes are still waiting to be paid the bonuses owed to them since their play-off victory at Wembley two months ago, leaving owner Karl Oyston facing a damaging row two weeks before their Premier League debut at Wigan. haha
Houdini Logic Posted 2 August 2010 Posted 2 August 2010 10/3 to stay up and still not worth risking a quid
FoxyPV Posted 2 August 2010 Posted 2 August 2010 10/3 to stay up and still not worth risking a quid The odds are far too short for that bet
