Yeah? When did you get iFollow? Or are you at the game? You didn't have iFollow last season, did you move abroad in the summer? Or have you got the VPN hack that no one else seems to have? Show us a screenshot if so... I'm not expecting anyone to be singing or dancing, but to slate your own team so much on the first game of the season is laughable What difference does that make how or where im listening / watching? I can say what I like , who are you for me to justify my opinion too ? I’d take some of your on advice and ‘get a grip ffs’ You said the performance is pathetic. Seeing as you didn't watch it, nor attend, how did you come to that conclusion? I'm questioning on your basis to judge a performance, when you didn't see it.

Yay we're 2-0 down with 1 shot on target after 75 minutes. Woohoo. Is that better? No, what's better is "Ah well, we lost 1 game out of 46 to a better team" Not: - "Pathetic." - "But not surprising is it really? Not much has changed because the recruitment was limited and no doubt hampered by finance. Bless those posters predicting a top ten finish. I’d love to know what that was based on other than sheer hopium." - "Leahy left back opening game away from home is suicide." - "We are way short of anything that resembles a football team." Top top support that. In fact, I'd say the comments are, in your words 'pathetic'. If you are expecting people who already had doubts about the areas we “strengthened” standing around clapping defeat like a bunch of simpering morons then you’re going to be mistaken. Not sure why you have to be so aggressive about disagreeing either. Criticism is just as valid a viewpoint as praise. Praise that seems pretty mindless right about now because, as some predicted, nothing seems to have changed.

Good thing you saw the game then, when the away crowd stayed and applauded the team off. Oh wait... We lost to a better team, f*cking might as well jump off a bridge. In fact, f*ck the fruit market while we're at it, we don't resemble a football team remember (as someone posted), so why have a football stadium? Get a grip. Pathetic.

Well good thing I'm not expecting in it then. But that's nice of you to make up a scenario on my behalf, thank you. So calling Rovers pathetic & lacking resemblance of a football team isn't aggressive, but me saying not to judge the first game of the season by people who didn't attend or watch the game, is deemed as aggressive? Nice.

And if we're winning a game 2-0, will you also say "absolutely fantastic, we're brilliant"? Funny, I've never seen you, nor the other ridiculous pessimists, post so happily after 1 win. Fist game of the season, losing 2-0 and you call the team you support pathetic. Cracking support that. I call having 1 shot on target after 90+ minutes pathetic, yes. And I will always give credit where credit is due. A couple of late efforts may have improved that statistic. 58% possession is also pathetic I suppose.

I don't understand it. We're away to a team that'll like battle for playoffs this season and the people who have predicted us to finish in the 18th-20th category are the most pessimistic after a loss to that team. Why? What were you expecting? Did you really think we were going to make playoffs? Were you secretly thinking we were going to be in the Championship next season but were going to predict us a very pessimistic finish? I think I'll judge us after a couple of games more so than a reactionary loss to a team that I, most people, and the bookmakers thought we'd lose to. Fact is it's not absolutely mind-boggling a promotion seeking team beats a mid-table team to be honest.

Wish we had bury first.
We still haven’t addressed the creativity we will do well to stay up with this team fact.

Same old story I’m afraid, neat approach play but no punch up front , defence needs time , disappointing how much room Blackout wide were given first half and second half after positional change, lot and huff and puff but no end project , impressed with Kyles performance though, still waiting for 6 matches to be completed for making a complete assessment, but obviously a lot of hard work needed in training pitch.

Both off target and you can have as much possession as you like but the only stat that really matters at the end is we lost 2-0.

Can I just point out, that Blackpool have an established, confident team, who have just been promoted, and are used to winning regularly, if at a lower level.
We are rebuilding, and we're without our top goal scorer today.
Give us 5 or 6 games, or at least until the end of the transfer window, and then we can see where we are.
Don't panic!

Well it makes all the difference, because you didn't see it. I haven't been to Chile. But I think everyone there is a murderer. Hey, look at that - if doesn't matter what I base my opinion on, but I can say what I want and they're all murderers. Good game this.

Every manager says "after 10 games we'll have a good reflection of where we'll finish in the table" On GasChat - its after the 1st game.

Let’s not get at each other’s throats, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and not everyone is going to agree with one another. It’s a forum and there is always going to be difference of opinion so let’s all just chill and see how things go over the next 45 games UTG
