Exiles thread - Blackpool (A)

Bit of an over reaction, to call it diabolical
It hasn’t been a great game, very scrappy
But a win is a win and 3 points badly needed
Get in COYO’s
Lady Luck was on our side today and so was Keeley

I would say it was diabolical, a game in which the opposition could've scored five and that was without Keeley making some great saves

My definition of diabolical is something that is shocking, disgraceful and extremely bad.

Diabolical, is what I would describe your comment, you either dont understand football, or didn’t watch the game, and just want to be a troll!

We were lucky to get 3 points today, going into this game, we were a team low on confidence after 5 defeats on the bounce, and we were not great, but nowhere near diabolical.

We stuck at it, got some luck, stayed in the game, and our GK pulled off some great saves and end result, we won away 2-1 and got 3 points.

Well played Orient, sometimes you have to win ugly and that’s what we had to do today.

In RW we trust

Well we've had previous little luck in our last five games so it's about time we've had the rub of the green

Only 3 more for Kelman to hit the magic 20 for the season

Absolutely . When was the last time we had a 20 goal striker ?

Danny Johnson?

Exactly this luck is meant to even itself out , no ?

[Mistadobalina]

In fairness, we were actually pretty decent in attack, but defensively we were poor and exerted very little control over the game from midfield.

Fair score would've been 5-3 Blackpool.

[Stan1972]

Bad day at the office, but a win & 3 points
After 5 defeats on the bounce, I’ll take that and move on to next game.

[Pugwash]

Need a 2nd goal here

And a 3rd.

No, a 2nd was enough

[PKM]

Our goal led a charmed life, combo bad misses by ‘pool and good saves by Keeley kept them down to just a solitary goal.
At the other end Charlie could well have had a hat trick.
We sure needed that and now we can regroup, welcome players back from injury and give the remaining games a good go.

[Qin]

How their guy missed that sitter, around 5 mins from the end of normal time, was amazing.
He tried to be a clever sod, and chip Keeley, but his chip was terrible.
Had he side footed it, he'd have scored easily.
The camera showed Bruce, looking perplexed just after
An incredibly lucky let off for us.
Talking of Keeley, he was very good today, after a few iffy performances of late.
Well done to the lad

[Hoover Attack]

We were by far the better team first half, had all the ball but didn’t create much, Blackpool had the chances and should have been ahead.

Second half was just bizarre. Scoreline could have been anything. We properly rode our luck for once.

[EliotNes]

Congrats to all who predicted a win in the Prediction Thread.

Had to laugh at these comments on their forum

Their keeper is outrageously good

I want the LO keeper Keeley drug tested.

[Hoover Attack]

He was good, for sure, but I don’t recall any saves he made that I wouldn’t have expected him to make.

Maybe the one at the end of the first half from the close range header?

[PoundhillO]

Another good win but we have lost too many points recently to be in with a chance of the play offs, although I would love to be proved wrong.

Their keeper and CBs are really poor. Bloxham would have a field day against this lot

Well done to the lad

Think it was Cooper’s horrendous mistake that let the guy through with what should have been a simple lob over Keeley.
As others have said, we haven’t had much luck in recent weeks, so it’s nice to see things even out.

[PKM]

Keeley & Kelman rightly got the plaudits yesterday but a more than honourable mention must go to Jordan Brown who put in a real shift yesterday.
A really good performance from him, well done Jordan.

[Hoover Attack]

Yet again. Think I mentioned him as POTS contender after Omar’s injury enforced absence and didn’t get much agreement.

[RPLancsO]

The Blackpool lad who did the terrible chip was Jake Beesley, son of Paul Beesley, briefly of this parish. bought for 175k and sold for 300k less than a year later. One of our better pieces of business.
