I know for a fact that the mascot giving him the certificate was the highlight of the season for Ellis 😂

Instant classic, one of the best awaydays if not THE best. The mascot being a fan of awaydays, Exeter fans bringing the energy, the fan saying he’s gonna off himself, the penalty save, the certificate, the Exeter fans arguing with a player and just the whole vibe of blackpool. Absolute all time classic video, cheers Ellis

Ellis, I'm the "Dry Pastry Guy" and think I've got the best method ... upside down, inside first, crispy top last which is coated with a little spread of filling ... no mess, end with the best bit! SCONES:Cream1ST, PIES:Inside1ST 😁 . Also, Jon Beer is a legend, love the MNFC POD and someone tell Dave Q11 should've stayed in because going to Away Days is the best advice!

The police at the beginning was there to protect everyone else from Ellis

53 on the mascot's shirt is for the famous Stanley Matthews FA Cup final win over Bolton in 1953 I reckon

Went to Blackpool the weekend before you Ellis, walked into what was apparently the best pub in Blackpool. Within 2 minutes there was a guy threatening the barman with a pool cue... Kinda set the tone for the whole weekend

Afcon cup is on. Asian cup is on. Where’s Ellis? Blackpool. Good on ya!

Blackpool isn’t really a violent place, it’s just a tourist destination for traditionally working class people. And as with any tourist destination, you just naturally end up with more crime because the tourists are often very drunk and at the same time you get more people trying to scam them. Meanwhile if you’re a local or just someone going about your day it’s a perfectly safe place like basically any other British town.

Afternoon. Part of the family who do the mascot at Blackpool (brother messaged you on instagram). Make sure you get that certificate in a frame! Was a pleasure meeting you and Ben, hope you had a decent trip!

As a Rangers fan, I have always liked Blackpool due to our close ties, their history, and passionate fans. I usually only follow the SPFL and J.LEAGUE but I've watched every Blackpool game since 2021. Probably my most favourite awayday video so far.

769 violent crimes per 10k residents is insane. I live in a town that’s considered bad, and it only had 229 violent crimes last year and I’m in Florida and they are almost equal in population

As a reporter on Sunday newspapers in the late 1980s/early 1990s football violence was viscerally real. I know I saw it. Better policing (primarily keeping known trouble makers apart/banning orders/etc, have changed the picture and (I hope) the younger generations are more interested in the beautiful game than a melee. But football-related violence was (and is) a thing.

Ellis and Ben that was simply a laugh and great video. Just gets better. Those Exeter fans with their beach shirts cracked me up, and your pre game look at Blackpool was a killer. There are videos on KZfaq also showing the plight of Blackpool as a resort, because they have lost sight of the times. Grimsby, once the worlds, yes the worlds no1 fishing port, is the same. Luckily, a few towns in england have realised that they just cannot live in the past. One of your funniest videos so far

As a Millwall fan, I just want to say, this is one of the best football Vlogs I’ve ever watched. Well done lads. You made me laugh. Keep up the good work. Love the humour. COYLs. 🦁🦁🦁

Proper enjoyed this one mate, the editing is amazing, and the content is always class, those fans were mint, keep up the great work 👍👍

Im the guy in the brown coat next to Ben. Was unbelievably cool to be stood with you guys

This is one of your best ever videos! Perfect combo of your new style and old school AwayDays!

Keep up the good work Ellis!

This has to be one of the funnest football blogs Ive seen in years. Fair play to you guys for bigging it up. On the violence side I take the light heart humour and the sensational titles, its all about click bait and getting subscribers and likes. Good to see what you put up as an adventure as if we just relied on the football the you might just get 60 seconds worth. Anyway well fine keep it going and maybe your make a million subscribers one day... I did all of this sort of thing 40+ years ago, I'm now chilling out in Asia content on watching you guys earning your stripes.... in my time, violence was at every corner, that just as it was way back then... good vid worth several laughs

One of your best this, really enjoyed it!

Blackpool’s mascot wears number 53 because Blackpool won the FA cup in 1953

Basically this is just Ellis Platten: The Real Football Factories 😂

love the channel, keep it up. PS my grandparents live near there in lytham, I've been to every place in the video!

Brother, right when u saw u uploaded. I jumped out my seat lol, thanks for great content homie

Hiya mate as a Blackpool season ticket holder I would not call Blackpool violent , disappointed as i didn’t see u at the match and the Bloomfield bear is number 53 because we won the fa cup in 1953 👍

Absolutely class video. Was gutted I didn't get the chance to meet you as your my favourite football KZfaqr. Once again the content was incredible and a good laugh. Hopefully you come back to Blackpool 😂 even though it's not the nicest of places. Anyway keep the content up. UTMP🍊

Brilliant once again Ellis what a game!

Love the content, wish I could travel to random games every week but it’s just too spread out in the US unfortunately

Lesssgooooo Been waiting for it haha Gotta love some Ellis in Blackpool 😂😂

Jon Beer should be a repeat guest. Top guy

That Troy Deeney edit cracked me up😂😂

This vid was amazing!!

Love it Ellis! Up the Away Days!

Did you applaud the goal? "Yah hell of a finish" 😂😂 proper relegation moment

Funny how Blackpool wouldn’t even crack the top 20 in the U.S… St. Louis is 3x those numbers. Step up Brits!

Great concept for a video!!! should do the next one in Slovakia or Albania 😂

"Bring in the violence" *cuts to a guy wearing a light blue jumper with a polo underneath*

Thanks for teaching me what a stick of rock is. There is an old song by judge dread, where he uses a stick of rock as a euphemism.

I was hoping you’d stay local, thought you were heading to Great Yarmouth 😂 looked similar to be fair!

From the many times ive been to blackpool I've never found the people who live their any more violent than in any other town. Most of the violence comes from the visitors who drink excessively and cause problems galore, especially in hot summer months.

Always liked hearing some djent in Away Days videos!

I'm glad you were proved wrong about blackpool, to be fair the area you stayed is absolutely horrid but when you travel 5 mins away from that area its a nice place with good people those stats are probably the town centre alone... glad you had a good trip mate 👏

Big up the Mascot. That's class

Come to the shay! Halifax town! Surely that one’s still on your list 😊

This is GOLD !! Give you guys a Victoria Cross EACH and a Knighthood.

Bloomfield Bear is fuarkin class mate

👏😀loved the video lads

Absolutely based of the mascot to present a certificate. Nice stuff ellis!

Need to come to Gainsborough trinity! Not the best time 😂 but they do have the oldest stadium in the world used by one team! 😁

Great to see me inspiring other creators again

I was sure I saw you when I walked out the games wish I would of stopped to talk now, us tangerines have some good fans

Blackpool crime rate is also higher then London but it also depends what area you go to also the popular english seaside rock sweets apparently come from Blackpool

There own fans arguing with their captain was jokes 🤣🤣

Love this episode dude- wow. Blackpool looks like a badass town. But hey thats coming from an American.

You should do a series checking off the rest of the 92 stadiums

you guys are making me want to do the 92. These videos are awesome though!

Maybe come to an Exeter home game!

The curtain pull back 😂😂

I’ve been watching since the Aston Villa vs Norwich City 7 years ago

(waiting for you to come to euro 24)

1:20 best part of the whole video 😂😂

Bet most of the violence is down to alcohol as it's a big stag and hen party location

Great video

Critchley was a pioneer of the ‘manager fist pump to crowd’ to be fair.

Your pushing the envelope fella !

Congrats on your first game at Bloomfield Road 😂 when’s the Bradford vid??

I was at burnley vs Blackpool last year and a blackpool fan came into a pub where the Burnley fans were allowed came in and attached people and then the blackpool guy got karma then got stabbed sadly tho he died but blackpool is super sketch near their stadium

It's Great Yarmouth up north

That certificate is like the one I got for Wolfie when I did a stadium walk round with him

15 minutes of a 20 minute video before a ball is even kicked! My favourite football channel!

Exeter Fans Are Wild. Love It.

The funniest AwayDays video by far 😂😂

My dad was born in Liverpool, it was depressing when I visited there in the 80s though.

Is that bloke who started the red army chant wearing orange ? 😂

It’s probably mainly due to people going to Blackpool and getting pissed up !!

I would say Elias you should come down to Devon and watch the Argyle/Exeter derby but Exeter have to be playing the same division for that to happen

This actually might be your best video yet, the boys were fucking buzzing!

Its all the drunk holiday makers causing crime, I live in Norfolk before anyone starts 😂

Panionios is a Greek team and is playing on third devision. They used to be good and had an amazing youth facilities. Then didnt have money to carry on and they got relegated.

Thanks for visiting us Ellis UTMP 🍊🍊

If you want to watch a football match in a dangerous town come to watch a San Telmo match in Isla Maciel in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I seen Exeter play twice one hole and away and fans were class both times

Hey away days! I’ve got a question….. where do you buy your football shirts? (Any one can response so please tell me any one😅)

Great video, Blackpool however, me and my wife went in 2021 for 3 nights ,couldn't come home fast enough

All time classic this one 😂😂 Mascot if you read this, LEGEND!

I would imagine most problems would occur in the high season in Blackpool,you would get a lot of groups of lads out getting pissed up & from different parts of the country. Blackpool & Torquay are the biggest seaside resorts in Britain & are very busy between June -september,the rest of the year these are ghost towns with nothing much going on & most things are closed,I don't believe it's got much to do do with football.

I will say that certificate is probably the most precious thing I’ve ever seen at a football match

Come down to Exeter 😉

You KNOW that Certificate has already been framed by now and hangs in a special place in his room

I have been waiting 2 years for you to go to home park in plymouth,, oneday it will happen

That cinderella troy deeney edit was goated 😂😂

The Summerville chant xD

A few months ago I was criticized for comparing Blackpool to Detroit, I mean one of these places is a cesspool full of crime, debauchery & the national life expectancy is less than half the national average... & The other is Detroit.

Stellar effort covering up the stick of rock 😂

Tell u what Ellis.. Out of all your vids I have never seen you smile as much. 😊😊😊😊... Great to see you had a wonderful time.. Blackpool is a cool place.. Is like Margate of the North... Plus that's not the best fish and chips. Bensons is.. So next time please try there.. Topman.. Good to see Ben back.. Get him on with the posh kid. Be a great trio... This channel is far better than thogden.. He bores me to death...

Class!

Good episode.

Come on the Pool, come on the pool! ❤️ Nice video

The tension was palpable throughout this one.

instead of basing these experiences on the quality of football... Maybe more about stadium history and team history. Im in the states now and the more of the stadiums and teams u visit the better. Great videos watch every single one! I wrote this when u said the last few videos have been meh...
