    All of the above applies equally to our owners. The statement itself is alarmingly similar in tone to pretty much every statement that's come out of City in the last 18 months.

    The ****ers are getting worse...

    Blackpool Stan Mortensen statue removal angers fans

    please log in to view this image


    Blackpool fans have called on the club owners to restore a statue of legendary ex-player Stan Mortensen they claim was removed before a demonstration.

    Fans' groups planned to lay memorabilia at the statue outside the ground on Saturday but have alleged it was taken down to thwart the action.

    Demo organisers also said the club would take legal action to stop fans gaining access to the statue.

    Nobody from Blackpool FC or its owners the Oystons was available for comment.

    A demonstration against the way the Oyston family run the club is due to take place before the last game of the season on Saturday. This could see the already-relegated team finish with the least number of points recorded in the Championship.

    Fans group the Tangerine Knights said it had a witness who saw men in high-visibility jackets removing the statue on Tuesday.

    If you're on Twitter, check out the recent tweets from @CommercialBFC, the official Twitter account of Blackpool FC's commercial department.

    Apparently, they think their fans are 'typical arsehole ****ers.'

    Oyston must be handling the account himself. <doh>

    That's appalling, even if there's some sort of tongue in cheek back story to that.

    They've closed it now. This is what was said.

    Nothing vaguely tongue in cheek
    I don't know how to post the whole conversation but it's basically a fan having a pop about the state of the pitch, saying he'd send them £20 for a good cause if it was in good nick for the first game, after the game they replied saying he owed them £20 and bizarrely he said be send them it since it was for a good cause, to which he got that reply. It was the second part of the sentence below

    Just seen someone has posted it. It really is bizarre. Is it not bringing the game into disrepute?

    It's incredibly odd. Players certainly seem to get sanctions for inappropriate twittings

    Blackpool fans favourite Trevor Sinclair responds to stories linking him to the Blackpol managers job...

    I'm not interested in joining any club suing scores of its own loyal fans and from where I'm looking have no ambition.
