mellis is very decent, shame he's a complete idiot.
"On 19 March 2012, Mellis was sacked by Chelsea after he admitted setting off a smoke grenade and causing a full-scale evacuation at the club's Cobham training ground. Mellis's team-mate Billy Clifford escaped with a fine after admitting he brought the grenade – understood to be from a paintball expedition – into Chelsea's Cobham training headquarters. The pair were suspended after the incident on 2 March.
Less than a month later, on 9 April 2012, Mellis was arrested after a fight with his girlfriend at his Cobham home. They were admitted to St Peter's Hospital in Chertsey and treated for scratches and bruises and subsequently arrested on suspicion of ABH. He was cautioned for common assault and criminal damage."
Hmmmm. Mellis is ok but that guy we had on trial and let go couldn't even get a regular starting role at Barnsley. Even if they do sign a squad they need to be a lot better than this lot.
Channel 4 news last night, did a piece on Blackpool. They brought in a forensic accountant, who confirmed that Oysten is taking millions out of Blackpool, to fund his other companies.
Costa Rica international midfielder Jose Miguel Cubero says he is set to join Blackpool. The 27-year-old, who came off the bench to appear in four World Cup games this summer, has posted a series of pictures of him at Bloomfield Road and with manager Jose Riga on his official Twitter account.
My Dad was a very mild mannered man who sat next to Oyston Snr. at school in Blackpool and described him as a complete shit. This was language Dad very rarely employed.

Signings at Blackpool FC are like buses, it would appear. Hopefully some positive news to come this afternoon.

4 days to the start of the season & they still have no goalie ! It would be great if they couldn't sign one by then (but they obviously will).
