A determination to enjoy the trip, no matter what. The result was never in doubt, especially after the early goal, but nobody was unhappy.
Was it a fair result on Saturday?
Yes - Chelsea could have had more. It would have been nice to pinch a consolation goal but no complaints about the score.
Best chant?
"Nil nil in the second half" "You only won four-nil" "It's just like a library"
Funniest moment?
Charlie Adam fought his way up the wing, right to the goal line under heavy pressure, and then basically collapsed as he tried to put a cross in; no foul, I think his legs just gave out.
Who were Blackpool's star players?
Baps had a good game, and GTF impressed coming on at half time. No real stars - Chelsea didn't really allow anyone to shine.
Any regrets?
Only that we didn't get on the score sheet.
Opposition any good?
Oh yes. Different class.
What next?
Blackburn at home, and we need to carry the spirit and effort forward; we were never going to get anything from Chelsea but against the likes of Blackburn it could make a difference.
Final thoughts?
This was the hardest fixture for any team in the Prem, and we are through it with our dignity intact.
