I *think* I'll be there, but I'm still having trouble coming to terms with the ticket prices. I'd much rather go there and protest about the thieving bastards
But I'll probably give in and go anyway!

Too right about the ticket prices mind, £26 & £15 and transport on top

Absolutely gutted. We really need to start creating more clear cut chances and sticking them away, so frustrating that we can't finish teams off, especially when they're as poor as Blackpool were.
At least we're still unbeaten away from home which is nice, depsite it feeling like two points dropped yesterday it's still an away point which is pretty good.
Bad points:
Is it just me or is Comminges the worst player we've had in a long time? I don't think he got within three yards of a Blackpool player the whole time he was on let along get close enough to make a challenge. He's the weak link in our team when he plays. Apart from that though I thought our defence looked really solid and I was never too worried when Blackpool were pushing forward, they hardly created anything anyway.
Bothroyd seems to be marginally improving but he still needs to be stronger, for such a big lad he ends up on his arse far too often and gets pushed off the ball very easily by smaller opponents. It'd be nice to see him actually sprint for once too, he always looks like he's just jogging, maybe it's just an optical illusion.
Whittingham having another off-day. It's no good him having one blinder in every three or four games, he needs to perform consistently. Looked petrified of making any sort of tackle and was again pushed off the ball too easily. Looked lost at times.
Correction, Eddie Johnson is the worst player we've had in a long time, just pipping Comminges to that honour for me.
Good points:
Darren Purse still making his critics look silly, another fantastic display from the skipper. Kennedy also played well and the defence as a whole look very solid until McNaughton went off.
Gavin Rae was man of the match for me, especially first half. Ran his socks off and got stuck in to win us the ball back.
Paul Parry looked sharp when he came on and took his goal well. Hopefully he'll start our next game in place of Whittingham. At least he's not afraid of going up for headers and competing in 50/50 challenges!
The travelling supoort of course. 1,000 city fans paying rip-off prices to brave awful weather in the golf tournament-style temporary stand.
