Opposition Manager’s Comments
Blackpool boss Neil Critchley arrived at the club in March 2020 following a lengthy spell coaching within the Liverpool youth team setups. The 41-year-old had stood in as first team boss for the Reds on a number of occasions.
The Blackpool boss discussed the Imps as an opposition saying: “They’re in a really good vein of form, so it’s a difficult test for us. They’ve had a really good start to the season, scoring goals and not conceding many and winning their first three games.”
Critchley continued by speaking about his own side and how they can improve following a 2-0 away defeat to Gillingham.
“We want to improve from what we did last week against Gillingham," said Neil.
"You always want more, you’re never satisfied and all in three games our performance has been encouraging, but we know it’s a results-based business.
“We should have played better against Gillingham and that’ll be our aim on Saturday.”
