Neil Critchley’s side are sitting pretty in the top half of the table having got back to winning ways at the weekend with a crucial 3-1 victory against struggling Peterborough United.
Prior to that, Blackpool - who joined Posh and Hull City in winning promotion from League One last season - had lost their last three and were winless in seven.
But in the main it’s been a strong start to the season for Pool, who head to Huddersfield Town on Boxing Day.
