    Just a thought

    Whilst watching yesterdays game I have sympathy with the Blackpool fans having Karl Oyston as chairman a person who has strangled the living out of once great club with history and tradition and a club that has been in the Prem not that long ago I hope they get rid and appoint a chairman who has got the clubs future at his heart.

    Which brings me to the loonballs on here who are slagging DW off for not spending owt as they call it,I've in the past been accused of having blue tinted glasses ,Whealens lovechild and other things that are not repeatable on a family website.

    If you want DW to spend beyond the club's maeans and end up like the clampits in Horwich then that is how we will end up but a lot worse off ,There aint no oil baron waiting in the wings to take over the control of the club we are who we are a family club being built up slowly but surely

    Be grateful for what an roller coaster ride we have been on over the last 17 years building up crowds from 3000 up to 13000 we have

    You can understand Blackpool fans frustrations; didn't spend when they went into the Prem and no money left (from 40m?)when they came back down.

    At least Karls fathers business was booming during that period of financial austerity. :/

    Although I was dissapointed on Saturday not to see a lone tennis ball thrown from ES2 again like the previous season's pisstake at Blackpool fans home protest where they threw hundreds of tennis balls during a game. Got to admit, although I feel for their fans, that single tennis ball brought a smile to my face.

    Doesn't help when the likes of Fulham are playing Billy Big ******** and signing the likes of Ross McCormack for 11m. To put that in pespective, Balottelli to Liverpool is for a reported 16m!

    Gives some of our more immature fans (nos) unrealistic pipe dreams of what we can sign. Frustrating our manager as well because other chairmen in this division also have the same pipe dreams about their players value.

    Shame that so far McCormack is failing big time, makes the "told you so" easier.
