[Revived Red]

I thought that we were second-best for much of the game with Blackpool dominating the midfield. Matty is a magnificent player - but not in midfield. We desperately needed someone like Delfouneso. McCartan and McConville made no impact whatsoever on the game.

I still feel that the use (or non-use) of substitutes remains Coley's Achilles heel. The game was crying out for a change after an hour. Gary Bowyer made 2 substitutions about then - and one later in the game. It always gives the opposition something different to think about and contend with.

It's a pity that none of the video highlights seems to show the denial of what looked like a certain penalty when Slocombe brought down Matty Pearson.

As chevyfire says, it was good to see Tom Aldred come over to the Stanley fans at the end. Such a pity that some had booed him during the game. Otherwise, a great turnout by the Stanley fans.
