We are leaving Bloomfield Road : Sun Oct 01, 2006 7:11 pm  

and playing at Fylde RUFC from next season 2007 until 2012.

I think this is a good move, we seem to attract more fans and being in the smaller surroundings and closer to the pitch makes for a far better atmosphere. We also had a good record there this season too!

I really hope Blackpool have a good 2007, good luck

Hope the move goes well and it's a success. You guy's have gotta have a better season than 2006.

I suppose it all rests on who we retain and who we sign for next season. I only hope we don't sign another load of old 'overpaid' has-beens who get all the hype and then only play for 4 or 5 games like we did at the start of this season.

It's no fun getting your hopes up all the time just to get them shattered

Yeah but least this coming season you have a full off season to recruit with a decent coach already in place. I hope it goes well.

You'll be fine. Next season will be better for Blackpool, you're an exciting new club, with a good coach, everything in life takes a little time, just keep supporting your team and in time you will reap the benefits.
Good luck for next season.

I was told you'll still be Blackpool Panthers

When does the new season start, and how much will entrance be?

You'll do alright at Fylde, great pitch and great facilities - just been done up.

I thought the original Blackpool played in St Annes ?? Very nice ground, superb facilities, quite a good population close by, some decent places to eat / drink nearby too. All the best Blackpool.
