Michael Appleton makes Blackpool transfer window admission after Reading win

Blackpool boss Michael Appleton oversaw a solid 1-0 win at the weekend for his side but has admitted to LancsLive that the rest of the transfer window will still be important to the Seasiders this campaign. Blackpool managed to seal a decent finish in the Championship last time around despite being newly-promoted, settling for a midtable finish.

However, boss Neil Critchley decided to head to Aston Villa to take up a coaching role and that left the Seasiders scrambling for a new manager to start the 2022/23 season.

Eventually they appointed former Lincoln boss Michael Appleton and he has spent the summer transfer window trying to mould the team into his image.

He started the season off well too by helping his side to a 1-0 win over Reading. It was Callum Connolly who put his side in front and then the side held on throughout the 90 minutes to ensure they went away with the three points.
