Lanark United enjoy Blackpool trip
The Thistle lads will take on Blackpool FC’s academy team in a special challenge match, before later returning to Bloomfield Road to watch the Blackpool-Derby Championship game.
Thistle 99s coach Andy Romer (44) admitted that last year’s trip to Blackpool was “a jolly up” which included a visit to the world-famous Pleasure Beach amusement park, but he stressed that this certainly wouldn’t be the case this time around.

“There was never any doubt about us accepting this invitation because – while we can return to the Pleasure Beach any time we want – we might never get the chance to play a game like this again.”
