I am sorry but i really think he needs to go.
No matter the how gutted they feel interviews like this in my mind are not the best the day after and show again his heart is not in it at Bloomers.
His points might be valid, but you don't come out with it the day after
Matt Gilks believes that Blackpool could have survived in the Premier League if they had not only dipped a toe in the water.
Defeat to champions Manchester United on Survival Sunday relegated the Bloomfield Road club back to the Championship just 12 months after last season's play-off final win.
Blackpool went down with just one point less than survivors Wolves, although Ian Holloway's side also had an inferior goal difference, and Gilks is frustrated as a result.
The goalkeeper thinks that if Blackpool had a bigger budget they would have been able to give a better account of themselves in the Premier League.
He told Sky Sports News: "The biggest disappointment from a personal point of view is that I don't think we really had a go at it.
"Ian Holloway will now probably build a new team. He will get the right characters that he wants and hopefully we will go onwards and upwards."
"There are certain restrictions at Blackpool with facilities and staffing-wise and I just think we dipped our toe in the water and maybe if we had put our foot in and had half a go at it we could have stayed up.

Very disrespectful to Ollie, the team and Karl. He does himself no favours. Interestingly the big difference between us and say Blackburn was one Paul Robinson. The keeper is key to survival in the PL and whilst his performances have been OK he has a lot of cheek blaming others albeit indirectly.

Matty . . . . . you're right, with a bigger budget we could have signed a decent keeper, one who wouldn't have by my reckoning cost us at least a half dozen points
Now STFU and do one back to League 1 . . . . after all the knobbers might need a back up keeper if they sell Lonnergan and sign Turner

What is the point of saying stuff like that ? Its basiclly saying he doesn't rate certain players in the team. Might be time to move him on
I'm getting flashbacks of Rhys Evans

Bye Bye Gilks you only got into the team because Rabs got injured. Enjoy warming a bench in the Prem for a couple of years before being released back to League 1.
