Blackpool 1 – 3 Huddersfield – Found out
In front of the cameras tonight we were found out by a very clinical Huddersfield side. We never really got going in the match, not able to pass the ball with any fluidity and the away side struck with three great “away goals”.
Larry had certainly done his homework leaving two upfront at all times meaning Town could counter attack 2 on 2, the away side were helped by Baptist’s very shaky start and a great movement from Novak and Vaughan. In the middle Southern and Norwood broke up play well but in truth didn’t have too much to do with our players giving the ball away far too easily and too often.

Our goal came from one of few passing movements with a dinked ball into Ince enabling him to turn in the box and find GTF who converted with a neat finish.
And in truth that was as good as it got. Town scored two from set pieces and should have had a further goal from another corner.
Ollie decided to throw on more strikers taking off Gomes which resulted in hopeful balls to the front four as there was no midfield to create. It’s almost as if Ollie gave up on our passing style, how often do you see Barcelona pulling off midfielders, sticking on strikers and going route one. The fans would rather see us lose but still playing good football than loose just hoofing and not passing the ball.
A disappointing night overall but good banter in the pub here in London (The Constitution) with some fellow Tangerines. Attentions turn to Saturday and big spending Cardiff who could move ahead of us with a win. I expect changes and hopefully something to shout about.
