This is our time

6 games undefeated and we have the all important momentum.
Barnsley at Luton, Leeds home to West Bromso a win Saturday could see us off the bottom.
Can we keep this momentum going?

Fancy JCR for goals on Saturday, and maybe Bradbury who clearly made a new year resoultion to get goals, and is sticking to it! Who needs Ricketts, we got Bradbury!

I think we can beat Derby on Saturday, we should be buzzing after two away wins on a trot and I'm sure we will be up for it. If the crowd really get behind the team then we definetely do it!

 

[mattytheshrimper]

would like a barnsley luton draw. that would be a very good result as neither team will go that far beyond us then

 

[sufcintheprem]

I'd gladly take a draw against Derby and Birmingham if we could rustle that up. If we could win either game, I'd be ecstatic

More points we take, sooner the better, but I'd also be happy with two draws against these 2 sides.

Im just so pleased to see us doing what a lot of knew we could

Derby must be pushing a sell-out now.

Lets raise the roof, we can do this, we are all in it together.

 

[feedtheshrimpers]

Agreed, let the chants of "we are staying up" shake the rafters!

Except for Hammell and Clarke (and to an extent McCormack this is pretty much the starting XI that's seen us go up two divisions, and now they are back playing together as a team, they know each others game inside out and its worked, a sense that the good team spirit is back in the camp, and the belief that nothing is impossible. The only way is up.

I thought that myslef after Saturday, that only 2 players were in that side that Tilly brought in during the summer. I think the one mistake that Tilly made was making too many changes, and the majority of his signings taking time to settle (rather than being sh!te).

I still think that some are not good enough, but Clarke now looks like the player that Blackpool didn't want to lose.

Funny, when we were in the mire one reason touted was the fact we still had too many league two level players.

How many posts were there saying we needed to replace Clarke/JCR/Bradbury/Hammell/Francis et etc.

Dont think theres any simple answer to the recent change.

Possibly players have settled etc.

Personally the biggest factor was simply lack of belief when we never really got going at the beginning.

Beating Man Utd showed the players they can get results and slowly since then things got better.

Add in other factors such as Sodje's form, the return of Bradbury from injury, the return of the Mac and you end up where we are.

To be getting these results without relying on Freddy makes it even sweeter.
