Search for Shirts!
Blackpool FC is looking to borrow shirts from two iconic years as part of an upgraded display: 1971 Anglo-Italian Cup Final and 1984-85 promotion season. If you have one or can put us in touch with someone who has one, please contact me: [email protected]
As a mark of respect following yesterday's tragic news, both teams will wear black armbands during today's game. Supporters are encouraged to join in the fan-led applause during the fourth minute. 🧡
Please join in with a minute's applause on the 33rd minute for Jordan Relph, a fellow Seasider who died suddenly recently, leaving a wife and four young children.
Also, a quick update on the flags. These will return to the Kop, it's planned, in time for the game against Exeter.
You'll notice there is some new signage up around the concourses, including a reminder that smoking - including vaping - is not permitted anywhere in the bowl of the stadium. Please respect your fellow fans and refrain from smoking or vaping in the stands. Thank you.
Regarding flags: I've got a brief update on this in tomorrow's matchday programme but suffice to say it is untrue that a decision has been made not to rehang any flags.

Flag washing. FYI you'll notice the wall around the top of the Kop is being renovated. Fans' flags have been taken down temporarily to allow this and the flags are being cleaned prior to being rehung in time for the first home league game next month.

For Seasiders travelling to Cheltenham for the game, I've been advised that the away fan zone is unable to open this evening, but away fans are welcome in The Robins Nest.
Help please! BFC volunteers will be in on Christmas Eve to clear the rubbish from today's game. In the spirit of the season it will help enormously if fans can put their rubbish in the bags provided at the exits rather than dropping it in the stadium. Thank you & Merry Christmas.
Shout out for volunteers (2):
If you can spare even an hour or two of a morning to help, the volunteer team would be most grateful. Just sign in at the NE corner of the ground at 9.30 on any of:
28,29 Nov and 1,4,5,6,8,11 Dec. Your help will be greatly appreciated. UTMP!
Shout out for volunteers (1):
With a busy schedule of games at BR starting tomorrow through to 9th December, this will obviously create a large workload for everyone, including the volunteers helping to prepare and clean the stadium before and after games.
