Neil Critchley: Blackpool sack boss after winless start to League One campaign

Blackpool have sacked head coach Neil Critchley after they began their 2024-25 League One campaign with back-to-back defeats.

Critchley, 45, arrived for a second spell at the club in May 2023 having led the club to promotion to the Championship two years previously.

The Seasiders missed out on a play-off spot by three points last term, finishing the campaign in eighth position.

The club confirmed that Richard Keogh will take over as interim head coach, starting with Saturday’s trip to Cambridge United.

“Despite his best efforts over the past 12 months, there have been a number of disappointing results and performances which means that a change is needed to give the club every possible chance of competing at the top end of the division this season,” owner Simon Sadler said., external

“I will always be thankful for Neil’s wonderful efforts in guiding the club to promotion to the Championship in 2021, and then comfortably keeping us in the division the following season.

“I and all at the club wish Neil and Mike the very best for the future.”
