    Isn’t it the Royston’s who have taken Blackpool from the Premier League to League One?

    Just wondering why there therefore wasn’t a focus on the Rhodes’ and protests against them (as they took us from the Prem to League Two).

    Instead Blackpool fans focus on owners who have taken us from League One to, erm,
    League One. Bit odd.

    Rhodes and Richmond took us from league 1 to the Prem! Not just the other way round.

    Cheers Bronco, I wondered after I closed my browser if that had happened.

    Fair point.

    But I would have thought going back the other way would have amounted to at least 1/10th of the protests that are being mentioned on here. Can’t remember hardly anything though.

    (I am playing Devils Advocate, but it did strike me there was / is a difference).

    Slightly different circumstances. Oyston's took £millions out. Rhodes remortgaged his house to keep us going.

    Check where the sky money went. Rhodes and Richmond took millions out initially and Rhodes didn’t remortgage he put it up as security against the bank overdraft

    Hey Onside, I’ve been thinking about this again.

    Didn’t the Oystons also take Blackpool from Division 3 (not Division 2 like City) to the Premier League and back again?

    As you’ve said Rhodes took us from League One there, but also back again (and down to League Two!)
    But there haven’t been at all the same protests at Bradford as there have been at Blackpool.

    Yet when a foreign owner takes a team from League One to League One there’s huge talk of protests, including flying planes over grounds.

    Somethings not quite right there.

    Maybe you're better off thinking about something else.

    I’ve been avoiding this site recently (taking the occasional peak), bad for my mental health! What fecknut has been on about flying plane over VP? There’s some right bellends about!
