Blimey! ...we're away to Blackpool Saturday week, theoretically if our result v Peterboro' & Accrington go favourably, we could overtake them in l1 placings, with a win at Bloomfield Rd

If they go belly up do we lose the three points for beating them in December ?
Blackpool fans very happy.

Pleased for them. If they can gift us the 3 points as well then I'll be very pleased.
As said above there could actually be some home fans in the ground next time we play them, be a welcome change.

Ex-Blackpool chairman Karl Oyston sues father Owen's club
Karl Oyston is taking the club where he was chairman for 19 years to an Employment Tribunal.
www.bbc.co.uk
And the Blackpool saga with the Oystons carries on.
does that mean they won't get points deduction?
The article repeats the information that the EFL will decide about points deductions on 6th March.

At this moment in time I’ll take whatever help we can get.
A selfish view I know but we’ve also previously missed out due to a points deduction which someone else benefited from...
thats why i asked. couldn’t see it in that article
Blackpool supporters trust announcement/comments re 'new' board is the link i shared.... march 6th is i believe when/if any points deduction is imposed?
Which the bbc news link says
ah okay. cheers
hope for their supporters sake they get it all sorted. they’ve had to put up with bad owners for ages

It's in the Oyston link above that.

The Oyston's have owned Blackpool for nearly 33 years!
Owen Oyston first bought shares in 1987, and took control in 88. Owen was jailed for rape in 1996, the chairmanship of the club initially went to his wife, then his son Karl who was in charge until recently.
didn’t realise it was anywhere near that length of time. and we moan about tiger!!!
To be fair, when Blackpool were a run-of-the-mill lower league club, I don't think the Oystons were viewed that negatively from a football perspective (only a personal perspective, as dad was a convicted rapist).
It's only after they brought in additional financing through this Belokon guy, and then somehow Ian Holloway got them into the Premier League, that the club was suddenly worth something and they showed themselves up to be greedy asset strippers.

5 years of 'problems' under the oystons ? Or maybe longer? I dont take too much notice of other clubs issues unless they become reported nationally , or may impact on oufc.... cheers for full info re oystons ownership at blackpool @myles
