  1. All ZFA at Fylde tonight as he picked up a man of the match award (deservedly as well). Also featured in the programme with his five best moments in football and all with Motherwell so nice coverage for us and pics and all referred to as 'we did this' or 'we did that'.

     

    His first goal, against Thistle.

    Playing in the Champions League in Greece.

    Playing in the Europa League against Levante

    Scoring against Celtic.

    Finishing second in the league.

     

    Obviously he hasn't had much else to choose from,though I thought he might have said being picked in the National League North team of the season last year.

  2. Blackpool are so far up shit creek financially that it might not take much of an offer to acquire him permanently. The manager doesn't think he's going to have any money for the January transfer window.

  3.  

     

    As for the appeal leading to review of earlier tackle, fine by me. Kipre is still banned - but so will Dembele be as his challenge on McHugh had intent - violent conduct for Dembele is a 3 game ban, reckless conduct by Kipre is 2 game ban. That is the laws of the game.

     

     

    Dembele's challenge was seen by the ref and adjudged to be a yellow, intent or not, so won't be looked at again.

  4. As far as Carson's red goes I think the club can clearly argue that nobody could say with certainty that the ball was not in the box. Like with corners surely the ball does not necessarily have to touch the paintwork but 'break the line' above it. Also, keepers no longer get automatic red cards for handling outside the box but only if they are preventing a clear goalscoring opportunity. This was by no means a clear opportunity.

    For Dunne's red we are back to the 'accidental' argument, if he even touched him at all. Under the new interpretation of the rules this could have been dealt with by a yellow card in my opinion. I think the club would be entitled to challenge both cards.

    As for McHugh, that was just foolish.
