We lost today 'cos we were out-muscled.

Taylor and Shacks were continually beaten in the air by Stoke's big strikers. All Stoke really had was the long hoof up to the big men.
We played all the football but, as Blackpool, after the substitutions we steadily got worse.
Should have taken Russell off not Matty as Russell was very poor.
Mo is still a bit off the pace. He didn't get his tackles in and allowed his players to turn.
Still, we are begining to play football on the deck and do look confident. We should win most of our home matches and get an occasional away draw which should make us safe - all providing we get players in during the January window to replace the loans that go back.
