Post Match Blackpool 0 Leicester City 0

[David Gwilliam]

Uneventfull boring game on a dreadfull pitch, i think we were brought down ththeir level, the defence looked solid midfield competative but not creative enough strikers squanderered what few chances we had
Ratings:
Kasper 7 - a couple of good saves a few dodgy kicks but overall a confidend display
RDL 7 - defensively pretty sound, tried to get forward but when he did it came to nothing, a solid display against a tricky winger
Morgan - 9 Superb captains performance, headed/kicked/tackled everything that came his way even tried to venture forward at times
Keane -6 fairly composed apart from a few miskicks (i expected SSL to play today following Keanes recent form)

Konch -6 i was a tad worried pre game as he hasnt been at his best recently and i thought Ince might trouble him, but Konch came through the game ok and hopefully a sign he is getting back to his best btw i wish hed take some inswinging corners

Kane -6 apart from a superb first half volley he didnt look too threatening, he worked hard enough but didnt look a goal threat
King -6 worked hard enough,put his boot in at times and tracked back well but wasnt creative.
Drinkwater - 6 as King, but wasnt helped by the playing surface
Marshall - 5 involved a lot early on but was again out of sorts

Nuge - 5 rightly taken off, his spark/touch/ enthusiasm has deserted him, we need him to get back on form
Wood - 6 looked our main goal threat, dissapointing penalty and even worse missed chance later on, im not too concerned, the goals will come
Subs
Dyer 6 little impact didnt see much of the ball

Knocky 6 did his best to get on the ball and was direct, im sure we would have created more if he had started
Vardy 6 no impact

The fans were very vocal and supportive in a sub-standard possibly unsafe stadium/away stand

All in all it was probably a fair result, but a game we would have won at a canter 4 weeks ago

For the Blackpool/ NW Foxes it was important not to lose this one yet im still a bit downbeat in what could easily have been 3 welcome points

Thank you DPJ This was a very useful post for those of us who were not there.
I was wondering what mark out of 10 you would have given Knockaert for the Charlton game when I thought he was extremely poor.

That pitch looked ****ing ridiculous.

Pitch I played on this morning was better by far.

Favourite moment of the match was Wes Morgan putting Tom Ince on his arse.

It was, excellent. Although Keane's cunning and deliberate 'fake hoof' comes in at a close second.

That pitch looked ****ing ridiculous.

Looked about the same as when we played there last month.

If it wasn't for the missed penalty I think this result would have felt a lot better.

Bring on Tuesday.

Eh? If it wasn't for the missed penalty this result wouldn't have materialised.

I'm sure Kingy means that if we'd drawn 0-0, and there hadn't been a penalty in the match, which we missed, it would feel better than the same result having missed a penalty.

I would also feel better if my auntie didn't have bollocks, but that's life.

I'd be more worried about the horse meat found in your meatballs!
