All Hail the Tache! He's some guy. Not only does he manage to give us a new East Stand, bought at a bargain price, but he seems to have sold the old East Stand to Blackpool!
FGS, they haven't even changed the name of it either.

their stand is literally a shed, a metal one at that. a joke to call their stadium "premier league ready"

Strange them building a replica of the old east, replete with pillars, and one which doesn't match the other stands. Why did they finish the stdium in he same design, instead of making it a dog's breakfast?

I'm assuming cost or space issues?

Not only that but he put in a sell on clause for when they sell it on to Accrington Stanley when they reach the EPL. Originally Posted by keekaboo

It's a temporary permanent stand (that makes more sense that you'd think!) so they're basically doing it on the cheap for a season before they get relegated again. Originally Posted by Dashing Bob S

Typically, they're allocating that stand to away fans this season so they will be getting a duff view for their 30-odd quid!

Even 'premier league standard' is a joke. What happened to all the sky money? Originally Posted by blairwallace

They're talking about bringing in at least 5 players this week. Their story is that they were gubbing us with their first eleven, but lost their shape and the place in the second half. Originally Posted by Mikey_S

We, of course, made no substitutions in the second half, and played our first team throughout.
Blackpool aren't serious IMO about the EPL season coming up. They'll play their games, pocket the TV dosh, and slip quietly back down and get back to life in the Championship...
