Sunday, January 29, 2012 at 01:18 PMHey Pool fan in Oz don't get too upset with these Morons Muppets who don't have a clue how to play football. I live in CANADA and go to more Blackpool Games than most people who stick up for Oyston. What you said about the team selection was spot on. I like many just wanted to see a good cup run. First one say in 15 years and all Ollie wanted to do was give the reserves a run out. Hope and pray he puts a good side out for the replay. Plus I am p@#$%d because I had the chance of winning over 1,000 dollars had Blackpool won.

Saturday, January 28, 2012 at 11:26 PMhairport By the way dimwit I live in St Annes and spend more time in UK than Oz and am a season ticket holder so I will have my opinion without kow towing to you. If you read what I said I was not having a go at Southern or his tumour but at OLLIE for picking him. I didnt go to the game but would have been disappointed to see a reserve Blackpool team playing if I had. Yes a reserve team ,in my opinion as Ferguson, Sylvestre, Fleck or Grandin ( if still eligible ) would have been stronger choices - IN MY OPINION dimwit!
