Sir Ian McKellen at 86 expertly reciting Shakespeare last night!

@JoeRooney53 I can't imagine he'll be too happy either if he's just been brought in for cover whilst they recruit another FB. Huge loss for us.

[Clayton Short @ClaytonShort]

Not to romanticise Imray and his loan spell too much given that he's just left but was he the best loan player we've ever had relative to the standard of division that we're playing in?

[Blackpool FC @BlackpoolFC]

The Club can announce that Danny Imray has been recalled by @CPFC.

We would like to thank Danny for all of his efforts in tangerine, and wish him all of the best for the future.

Bruce needs to go. Let's see what Evatt can do with this squad.

[Clayton Short @ClaytonShort]

Show this to the whole squad and coaching staff, @BlackpoolFC. Absolutely rubbish (almost) to a man today.

[Clayton Short @ClaytonShort]

@LM6tweets I can't stand the new shirt yet you are spot on with this. I'm speaking as someone who bought the ghastly yellow Bass retro the club released last season. That was god awful as well.

@AnythingBFC @BlackpoolFC The person behind this account must be the same person who's spamming AVFTT

@Robert_P_Curtis I'd go easy on the John Denver references when waiting to board an aircraft

This goal confused the hell out of me in the West but the replay shows a classy finish @Niall_Ennis11

@AndyhHolt They already took the 9.9 million people hint in the summer, you doughnut.

@MarkClemmit @BlackpoolFC @BBCOne @AlexScott Mark using the phrase 'right between the eyes' where Blackpool are concerned. Where have we heard that before, Mark? Ah yes, you used those same words when you sided with the Oystons in 2014 in your Times article after being taken in following your 'audience' with Karl.

Media witch hunt. It's fair to criticise @UKLabour on the winter fuel payments or genuine improprieties but to highlight and sensationalise this kind of rubbish that we are seeing on a daily basis at the moment tells you all you need to know about the British media landscape.

[Hal Cruttenden @Halcruttenden]

A family who have journalists constantly outside their house accept a donation from a rich friend so they can move somewhere where their son isn't bothered during his GCSEs. No cost to taxpayer. The fact this counts as a scandal shows how the right control the press. Ridiculous.

[Clayton Short @ClaytonShort]

Football is a simple game and Steve Bruce reminded us of that today. Two balanced banks of four with two strikers up top who left everything on the pitch for the cause. Plenty to do but a really promising start.

[Clayton Short @ClaytonShort]

Excellent and long overdue. Well done, @ChrisWebbMP

[Chris Webb MP @ChrisWebbMP]

Blackpool's Waterloo Road and Bond Street were once thriving local and tourist hotspots which underpinned our local economy all year round.

When the Deputy Prime Minister, @AngelaRayner last visited Blackpool with me, she saw for herself the awful visible decline of these areas.

Last week I met with a constituent in South Shore to discuss her Bond Street property which has been severely impacted by a dilapidated neighbouring property. Over the past few weeks I have been working with her and the council to understand this complicated case and to hold the neighbouring landlord to account over this abandoned site.

I took the first opportunity back in parliament to ask a pressing question on behalf of many of my constituents in Blackpool South, will the Deputy Prime Minister work with me to ensure their successful regeneration?

See the video and her response below. 📺

@cooksleft You're bang on there. Apter is in every game, causing a nuisance, snapping at heels, posing a threat. When Bowler was good, he was great but he was otherwise absent for such large parts.

Crikey- you may be right ⁦@elonmusk⁩ - it feels like imminent civil war in London this evening - people from all races and religions sitting in the sun, having picnics, walking dogs, playing frisbee, enjoying the greatest city in the world. #edgy
