Larry issues rallying call

Simon Grayson says it is crucial that Blackpool bounce back in the next two games following a poor run of form.

The Seasiders were disappointing to say the least when losing at home to Preston on Sunday and now face a tough trip to Wolves, before taking on Sheffield Wednesday a few days later.

It gives Blackpool the chance to bounce back and Grayson wants his players to grab it with both hands.

"Is it back to the drawing board at Bloomfield Road? Well, we have to get back to doing what we were doing, yes," Grayson revealed. "We have to be focused and get a tempo to our game.

"We have to get teams pinned in and do what we were doing to teams last year. Possibly on Sunday against Preston one or two players might have stopped doing the things that got them to where they are.

"We have spent a lot of time this week looking at what went wrong.

"We have analysed it, had a few chats with the players and to be fair to them, they've knuckled down in training. They are determined to improve and show everyone that they are good players.

"We have got the Wolves game, quickly followed by the visit of Sheffield Wednesday, and we need to get back on track and pick up some points."
