Full time (sigh of relief)

Blackpool 1
Norwich City 1

Glad to get at least 1 point and first goal of the season! :D

[Bispham Seasider]

Yes yes and yes and yes. 1-1.

I would have taken that before the match, and considering we had NO corners and they absolutely battered us especially in the second half, now I AM HAPPY!!!

COME ON yOU 'POOL!!

[El Naranja]

A point is good, especially considering the beatdown the 'pool received.

[Dynamogal]

A point away in a hostile atmosphere with a former player (Hoolahan) trying his best to show up his old team (although he did get the assist on the goal)? - I'll take it.

[Bispham Seasider]

Definitely, I feel like we won now!!!

Norwich 14 shots, Blackpool 3
Norwich 12 corners, Blackpool 0

Yet we grabbed a point and Norwich fans aren't happy that they didn't win. And at least we kept Hoolahan from scoring. Apparently he had the quietest game yet for them...... Maybe because we know how he plays and focussed on his weaknesses (like not being able to play with his right foot!)

Right now we are in 15th place (out of 24) but with Ipswich winning at Burnley and the Bristol City vs Derby County game to kick-off soon we will probably end up in 16th and if Derby win, then 17th. But still ok as it is only two games in.

[Dynamogal]

Did they play in Burnley? Last I heard the game was delayed due to the injury of the parachutist before the match. :(

[Bispham Seasider]

Oh and - we had yet another two players makig their debuts for us today in Rehman and Kabba.

OK so both were off the bench, Rehman did of course play for the last 20 minutes or so at Macclesfield but that was in the cup not the league and he had longer today, and in defence still out of position at right-back but from early reports he did well. And yes Kabba was just brought on to waste time right at the end of the match, but at least he is fit and ready to play!

[Bispham Seasider]

Did they play in Burnley? Last I heard the game was delayed due to the injury of the parachutist before the match. :(
Aye the match kicked off about an hour late due to the parachutist being stuck on top of one of the stands!:eek: Surely the weirdest reason for a late kick-off! They are still 2-0 down and heading for a home defeat with no points from two games and a -5 goal difference! What a shame. :D

Bristol City have just kicked off at home to Derby County. That match is live on Sky Sports One right now.

Virgin Media are again this season continuing their online highlights of each Championship match which I'm not sure are avaiable in the United States. It is located here thoigh just in case -

Anyway toward the end of the video, the commentator (who surely must have been reading BFC internet forums!! :p) called Wes Hoolahan "Wes Hoolahoop"!!!!! HA HA :D

"Not in a geographical location...blah, blah, blah." Grrrrrr :mad:
