For those who arent aware way back in 2003 the legend that is TJAMES asked the question (with a poll) if we would beat Blackpool. He did of course mean Blackburn but a few started to mock him and it stuck. And still to this day the question is asked WWBBTJ - Will We Beat Blackpool T James?
He also gave the answer i think yes what about you?
When finding out the Blackpool had got into the Playoffs our old friend jonnymac1979 came back and posted
I've logged back in today, for one day only. I've been away for a couple of years (I just mean away, away, not in fucking jail or nothing) and I couldn't leave one of my favourite internet thingies (?) of all time alone today without offering Blackpool and TJAMES my absolute full support.
Then off course Blackpool made it to the Premiership so he came back with
Hello again, what a great result for both Blackpool and this forum. It's been years and we are about to find out the answer to one of the most iconic questions ever asked on a public internet forum. I've not posted here for about eighteen months, but this was as good a reason as any to log back in.
The Manhattan Project then gave us the history of Blackpool
- Not many people know, that famous northern comedian Roy "Chubby" Brown was actually born at the end of the Central Pier.
- Blackpool takes it's name from a pool that was black.
- The city of Blackpool is on the coast of the "Irish Sea". Not many people know that the Irish Sea is actually an Irish citizen. It was born in Cork, at the same farm where Roy Keane was born....in the same barn.
- According to scientists, residents of Blackpool are not technically considered "human". But rather are an evolutionary offshoot that broke from homo sapians about 60,000 years ago.
- The Blackpool Tower is actually the top half of the Eiffel Tower. The people of Blackpool stole it in 1889, forcing the residents of Paris to rebuild their vandalised monument.
- An interesting fact about the tower, is that it is actually a large supernatural antenna, which was designed to gather paranormal energy.
- The Blackpool Illuminations cause the hole in the ozone layer to grow by three miles every year.
- The tram that killed that guy from Coronation Street is still at large and is highly dangerous. If you have seen the tram, please contact Crimewatch. You will not have to give your name or address.
- The Pleasure Beach isn't actually all that pleasurable. Technically the emotion it raises is "joyfulness", with a hint of happiness.
- The town of Fleetwood was named after musician Mick Fleetwood, who famously made a tit of himself at the 1990 Brit Awards.
- WWE wrestler William Regal was born in Blackpool.
- WWE wrestler Triple H was also born in Blackpool.
- Blackpool FC play in orange because oranges were first grown in Blackpool.
- The colour orange was also invented in Blackpool.
- William Of Orange was born in Blackpool.
- The Sandcastle swimming centre is actually made out of sand.
- Blackpool Zoo is home to several exotic animals, such as zebras, tigers, and velociraptors.
- The large roller-coaster named "The Pepsi Max Big One" has been sabotaged several times by people loyal to Coca Cola.
- The Pepsi Max Big One is actually quite big.
- Blackpool is famous for it's numerous "bed and breakfast" hotels, where you have the choice of either sleeping in the bed, then eating breakfast, or you can eat the bed and sleep in the breakfast.
- The world famous Winter Gardens are actually quite cold.
- No planes actually land or take off from Blackpool International Airport.
- Porn star Pat Astley is from Blackpool.
- Musician Rick Astley is not from Blackpool, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy his music:[/b]
Sing It Rick!

"In 'Tonight' with me, Trevor MacDonald, I will be asking the one question that has the entire World intrigued:
'Will we beat Blackpool, TJAMES?'
Find out on 'Tonight' at 11pm."
Even when poor TJAMES tried to start a thread about something else it always came back to the same thing!
And so after all that time we will finally find out on Saturday if Liverpool will beat Blackpool
