Better side with Preston's goal coming from their only chance - Blackpool also now in front.

I was intending going to this as well, however, Man Utd's involvement in the Europa League snookered me
Thanks for the update --good to see the goalscorers too -- three promising players, although I have only seen Harry twice so far.

Hoping the Cod Pieces up the road could pull off a minor shock today against their neighbours.

As we were - Blackpool have won 4-0.

We've still to play Shrewsbury (a) & Accrington (h)
Blackpool to play Wrexham (a) & Morecambe (h)

Cheers for the updates.
Shame Fleetwood couldn't have done something.

They way we've turned things around though has been encouraging.
8 wins in 8, and counting, is excellent.

I really enjoy the youth team's links. Keep it up, CT.

Come on you young Clarets !!!!

We had a difficult period in September when the youth team lost a good number of players through injuries and dev squad requirements. We lost three on the bounce.

Since then, we've played 19, won 15, drawn 3, lost 1 and we were very unfortunate, I'm told, to lose the one at Blackpool.

Michael Duff has made a hell of a difference with his professional approach, something so sadly lacking last year.

Next year will be interesting with the potential step up in league. I'd just love Blackpool to slip up now although they have those two easy games to go.

Limb seems a bit handy

Got 25 mins today. He doesn't go full time until next season, completing his school year before joining us. Only seen him a couple of times and not for a full match yet.

Limb seems a bit handy

Looked a bit leggy in the 2nd half.
