Fleetwood Town Match Thread (League) on 15:34 - Dec 3 by spell_chekker
I'm expecting Barton to come out with some idiotic / inflammatory comments before the match.
Fleetwood Characteristics
+ Strengths Finishing scoring chances: Very Strong Attacking down the wings: Very Strong Creating chances through individual skill: Very Strong Attacking set pieces: Strong
- Weaknesses - Stopping opponents from creating chances: Weak
Fleetwood's Style of Play Possession football Control the game in the opposition's half Attacking down the right Play with width Rotate their first eleven Opponents play aggressively against them
Team News
Goalkeeper Joel Coleman remains sidelined with a long-term hamstring problem.
Neil Critchley has no fresh injury concerns.
Match Facts
There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Blackpool's last 3 away games (League One).
Fleetwood are undefeated in their last 6 home matches (League One).
Blackpool have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 away matches (League One).
Prediction
Fleetwood failed to move into serious top-two contention in midweek, losing for just the second time in eight matches. But Joey Barton will be thankful that his side are back on home soil - given that five of their seven League One victories this term have come at Highbury.
But that record won't scare a Blackpool side that defeated Portsmouth on Tuesday, their fourth victory in five matches. The Seasiders beat another promotion-hopeful Peterborough in recent weeks, and they've only lost one of their nine meetings with Fleetwood in all competitions (W5, D3), meaning they should be confident of gaining bragging rights.
Learning to read clusters is not something your eyes do naturally. It takes constant practice.

Fleetwood Town will be looking for an improved result here after the 1-0 League One losing effort in their last game against Northampton Town.
Cian Bolger (47') was the scorer for Northampton Town.
The Fishermen have been finding it hard to keep clean sheets lately, but they have also managed to convert their own chances into goals. Looking at their last 6 games, The Fishermen have seen their goal breached in 6 of them while also getting on the scoresheet in 5 of those matches. That kind of trend won’t necessarily follow through into this game, however.
Pre-game facts show that Fleetwood Town:
- have not emerged victorious against Blackpool in their last 3 league matches.
- are unbeaten in their previous 6 home league matches.
Blackpool - WWWWLW
Blackpool will come into the clash following a 1-0 League One win as they beat Portsmouth in their last match.
The only name on the scoresheet from Blackpool was Keshi Anderson (64').
Over the course of their previous half-dozen clashes, Blackpool have amassed a tally of 11 goals. The Seasiders have also managed to score on each one of those occasions. Over that period, they have had 5 goals go against them.
â†”ï¸ Head to head
Checking on their past head to head clashes going back to 25/11/2017 tells us that Fleetwood Town have won 1 of them and Blackpool 3, with the number of drawn matches being 2.
15 goals were shared by the two clubs in these games, with 6 for The Fishermen and 9 being from The Seasiders. That’s an average goals per game of 2.5.
The previous league game between these sides was League One match day 37 on 07/03/2020 when the final score was Fleetwood Town 0-0 Blackpool.
The match was refereed by John Busby.
â„¹ï¸ Team News: Fleetwood Town
Fleetwood Town boss Joey Barton does not have any fitness worries whatsoever ahead of this match with a completely healthy group available to choose from.
📋 Team News: Blackpool
Owing to a completely injury-free squad available for selection, Blackpool manager Neil Critchley doesn’t have any fitness concerns at all ahead of this game.
✨ Prediction
We envisage that Blackpool will surely be able to breach the defence of this Fleetwood Town outfit, however it is unlikely to be as many as they’ll concede.
We are anticipating both teams to score in a 2-1 victory for Fleetwood Town after the 90. Let’s just see how this one goes.

Formed: 1908 Stadium: Highbury Stadium (5,327) Captain: Paul Coutts Chairman: Andy Pilley Manager: Joey Barton Competitions: League One position 7, EFL Trophy (Round 2)

Ched Evans
Customarily used in the Striker position, Ched Evans was born in Rhyl, Wales. After having played his first senior match for Norwich City in the 2007 - 2008 season, the skilful Forward has netted 5 league goals in this League One 2020 - 2021 campaign to date in 14 appearances.

Barton: I think all form goes out the window in a derby
Head coach Joey Barton spoke to the press ahead of his side's Fylde Coast Derby against Blackpool at Highbury on Saturday.
Town head into the league clash on the back of a narrow defeat to Northampton Town on Tuesday, but take pride in the home record the side has amassed throughout the current campaign, and are currently on an eight-game unbeaten streak.
Ahead of the game, this is what the gaffer had to say:
On the opposition…
“I’m really looking forward to the game, really looking forward to it. I think Blackpool go into the game as the favourites due to their recent form and it’s very rare that we have gone into a game as the underdogs. I think they have won seven out of the last eight, albeit there are some EFL Trophy and FA Cup games in there, but still, they are winning more than they are losing.
“We know that in the local derby, their fans don’t consider it a derby unless they win and if we beat them, they don’t consider it so, and it sets up for us to bounce back from a disappointing result, albeit not a disappointing performance.
“They’ve been on a good run so it will be good two good sides, Colin Calderwood has gone in as Critchley’s assistant, who is a good friend of mine, and a great coach who I worked with at Newcastle. There’s no doubt that they will make them a better side because he’s a good man and a better coach and we are going to have to be the best version of ourselves if we are going to get anything out of the game.”
On derby expectations…
“I think form goes out the window in a derby, whether that be home form or any form, so it will be whoever wins the street fight. That’s a derby game, it’ll be whoever wins the fight so once the fight comes to an end, both sides can end up settling down and playing football.
“It will be a physical encounter; it will be who handles the physicality in the early part of the game in the right manner and then whoever earns the right to play after that. If they win the right to play, they’ve got some good players and if we win the right to play, we’ve got some good players.
“They are a few points behind us in the table and they will want to win to get above us and we need to win to get back on the form we’ve been on as of late. Is there a favourite in a derby game? We expect to win the game. They’ve got more tradition and prestige, but we expect to win every game in the league, that’s my expectation.”
‘Where there is harmony, may we bring discord. Where there is truth, may we bring error. Where there is faith, may we bring doubt. And where there is hope, may we bring despair’
