jasoneuelllfanclub Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 Live on BBC1 5.25pm kick off Should be a cracking game, both attacking teams who have scored lots of goals. Blackpool defence is very leaky so if we can keep both phillips quiet then we have a good chance of taking 3 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pap Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 Looking forward to this, and hoping that the team treats it as "must win". No reason for us not to, either. Blackpool weren't impressive defensively this week. I'll be up at this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shurlock Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 Hope we pound them left, right and centre with crosses and setpieces. They've been a joke in the air of late. By the same token, I hope Fox remembers he's a ******* LB not a CB and gets tighter to his man - Ince and Phillips will be threats down the wings. That means Lallana and whoever is at RM -probably Guly (another aerial threat) or Chaplow rather than SDR for this one- are disciplined and provide decent cover.

lethallee Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 As they proved at SMS earlier in season Blackpool always carry a goal threat but defensively they are poor. Has makings for a really entertaining game and very difficult to predict what way it will go. Our fullbacks will have to be on top of their games to minimise threat of Blackpool wingers. Assuming Blackpool still play 4-3-3 formation, perhaps Nige will start with morgan, Cork and Hammond to allow us to get hold of possession in midfield. Lallana in free role behind Lambert and Sharp.

Jack Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 I think we'll put in a good performance and win. Ruthless attack vs a leaky defence. We're in top form and have defended well, apart from the Millwall game, and have always carried a threat going forward. Last 8 form: Saints - Won 7, drawn 1, lost 0, scored 18, conceded 3. B'pool - Won 2, drawn 2, lost 4, scored 14, conceded 18. I reckon Ollie is dreading it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFC Chris Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 Judging by some of the comments on here over the last few days you'd think we're playing Brazil on Saturday, not Blackpool. Of course it will be a tricky encounter but we've every reason to go there full of confidence and expecting to take all 3 points. On current form how some people can say "can't see us winning this one" etc is beyond me. Lookin forward to what should be a good open game with both sides strong in attack - hopefully we have enough class at the back to make sure we leave with the points.

London Saint Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 They play quite an open game so if we are on song and playing well then we could tear them a new one... On the other hand we looked quite average and lethargic in the first half against Donny so I hope we dont take our foot off the gas up at Blackpool or we could get caught out as they play good football at times...

Appy Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 We'll win. They really aren't anything special, couple of decent attacking players to watch out for, but defensively we can get right at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le God Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 Can't see anything but a loss, and haven't felt like that for ages now. Thought we'd end the season well after a tough middle period, but there will still be the odd blip. Not a disaster of course. Draw would be great. I just think they're the sort of team we'll struggle against as they could easily go ahead. The intensity of it, their attacking threat. I'm almost looking at it like a bonus game as it's our toughest fixture, IMO. They are in dreadful form at the moment for a side chasing promotion... Last 8 form: Saints - Won 7, drawn 1, lost 0, scored 18, conceded 3. Blackpool - Won 2, drawn 2, lost 4, scored 14, conceded 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint J 77 Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 I've got to say I think we will win this one and I can be negative about Saints at the best of times. The last time I had a bad feeling before a game was the Ipswich game and although we didn't win it we still got a point. I feel good about Saturday, reckon we will win with another hard fought 2 nil scoreline! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 Feeling fairly good about this one, maybe it's just the weather today. Blackpool are a decent enough side, but really are nothing to write home about overall. Lambert, Lallana and Sharp are scarier going forward than than the two Phillips and our defence if far, far superiror. As long as we turn up, play our way and don't get suckered into another Millwall performance, there's no reason we can't get another 3 points.

bpsaint Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 A weeks rest after a hard fought week in which we gained maximum points will do the team a world of good I reckon. We know Blackpool are good on the attack but then so are we, and if we have Frazier back by then I'm convinced we'll get a result, espically with Sharp chomping at the bit now.

Under Weststand Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 I would take a draw now, although I feel confident for promotion I don't think we will have everything our way for the rest of the season.

The nippers Dad was grabbed by a huge Rozzer for mouthing off at a Lino and the lad shouted 'Leave my Dad alone!' The Rozzer grabbed the nipper and threw him to the ground. All of us in the vicinity really gave him some stick but it made no difference. They were both marched off with their arms forced up their backs.
