Anyone know when Blackpool's second round of tests is going to be today? Feel like they'll do everything they can to get it called off 😔

Seen what I think was a journo on Twitter saying Critchley will do anything to keep the game on and has done in the past. I don't think he sees it in their best interests unless there's a significant crisis. Don't think they have much to lose either to be honest.

I’m only getting an option to purchase audio?

I'm in Spain and get the option for video. My mate in the UK only gets the option for audio.

Really is a joke how they are handling potential postponements. Madness it's got to this stage.

From the club.

Sam Gowland has heard from a Blackpool player, that they're now testing at 3pm.

That last sentence sounds ridiculous.

That’s a bit desperate from them. Ridiculous. If they call it off that late we should just get the three points. I’m sure they have under 23s who can play

Unfortunately, the Hull fiasco last week means there's precedent for last second cancellations now. Hull cancelled like an hour and a half before the game.

Looks like they have recalled a player from loan and gave 2 youth players squad numbers so that looks promising

I cling onto the hope that The Blackpool Manager is as good as his word, what difference would 1100hrs and 1500hrs be? The only thing I can think of is to disrupt as many Boro fans who have already started their journey though I am certain someone must think that Boro fans will not be leaving until after 1500hrs anyway.

@SmogDane

If this is called off then the Sheffield United game is yours to do and you get to become only the second forum member to join the four up club albeit by default!😙

Tbf, wouldn't give them that much credit, they may have just been told it's not getting postponed, get on with it.

It’s an extra two hours to develop symptoms.

I see the 2 sky games are postponed. Any chance we will sneak on again?
