Protest but all we want is three points

Our new manager is still only advising and will be travelling with the squad to Blackpool for tonight’s televised clash. The club continue to battle with his former club to make the deal official. I am not that interested in the in’s and the out’s of the deal as it looks to me to be about money my pet hate in football.
 
The fans tonight will have shared problems with their clubs owners for whatever reason. Cardiff have the ongoing rebranding issues while our Championship rivals are in the mists of protesting against their owner.
 
Blackpool fans are targeting tonight's televised match against the Bluebirds to demonstrate their anger on the way its current owners are running the football club. They barely had enough players to start the season with owner Karl Oyston the target of much of the abuse.


Is everybody happy ... not really
The protesters hope fans will turn out in significant numbers to let everyone know loud and clear how they feel about what is going on at Blackpool. There are a number of planned protest from releasing thousands of black balloons, banners, and a walk out in the 53rd minute, representing the year the club won the FA Cup. Cardiff fans also have their protests with by far the majority of the travelling fans shunning red and wearing blue.
 
On the field rock bottom Blackpool are reported to have a number of injury problems and there loan keeper Joe Lewis is ineligible to face parent club Cardiff, so Elliot Parish an ex Cardiff City player is expected to start in goal. Has for Cardiff only Matt Connolly is carrying a knock.
 
There is another international break after tonight’s game with the Bluebirds next game on October 18 home to highflying Nottingham Forest.
