OK you Gills, time to put the peddle to the metal and start getting points. I understand it's been an unusual start to the season, no game this weekend and the debacle against Newport County, I am sure has not helped, but the players must be rested and had plenty of training sessions to get to know each other by now, so lets go out and beat Blackpool tonight.

A point against the team at the top is well, OK I guess, we seemed to be pinned back a lot, as in time of possession, and we seem to have a lot of fouls called against us in the last two games.
The ridiculous situation with Bury and Bolton continues , Tranmere thumped Bolton I think like 5-0, then today Bolton call off the game against Donny.
There is something not right here, a win against Bury last week and we would only be a win away from the last play off spot. Come on the FA get things sorted out , you have millions in the bank, pull some out and save these clubs or send them packing, either way do it NOW .

Taking a very altruistic view wouldn't it be a great show if some of the mega rich clubs and players stepped in with some assistance.

We all think about the games on a Saturday but there so many people behind the scenes who make football work. One weeks wages for a top premier league player would make a world of difference but as I said it's a very altruistic view

Only had my phone in Spain to see the score,but disappointing to draw after being 2-0 up.Blackpool have started really well,it is encouraging to read online that we played very well.If we can cut out the goals before Halftime,we will get wins.
