Since being relegated from the Championship in 2023, the Seasiders have failed to finish in the play-offs in their first three attempts.
While there has been a dip in form for the current squad since the beginning of September, head coach and club legend Ian Evatt will still be hoping to be the one to get things back on track at Bloomfield Road.
Even with several tough periods across the last few years, there’s still been several memorable players to pull on the famous Tangerine.
Here’s our best starting XI from the last three seasons:

7. CM: Karoy Anderson
We're going with two holding midfielders. Karoy Anderson has to be one of them despite his relatively short time in Tangerine, with the Jamaica international proving to be someone who can dominate games at such a young age. Photo: Gareth Evans

8. CM: Albie Morgan
The frustrating thing for Albie Morgan has been injuries, but when given an extended run in the team, he's proven to be a great presence and a really effective operator. Photo: Gareth Evans

9. CAM: Karamoko Dembele
It was easy to see why Karamoko Dembele had been a wonderkid at Celtic. The attacking midfielder was a joy to watch and a special talent. Photo: CameraSport - Lee Parker

10. CAM: Sonny Carey
Sonny Carey probably enjoyed the best individual run of form of any player across the last three years, with his impressive start to 2025 prompting his eventual departure. Photo: CameraSport - Lee Parker

11. ST: Ashley Fletcher
Ashley Fletcher goes up front. It was just a great story for the forward - having arrived low on confidence, he became an effective figure under both Steve Bruce and Ian Evatt. The 30-year-old's goals last season gave the Seasiders a base to build from in their fight against relegation. Photo: Gareth Evans

12. ST: Jordan Rhodes
Jordan Rhodes also goes up front due to his goal-scoring antics in the first half of the 2023/24 season, with the ex-Huddersfield Town forward finding the back of the net 15 times. Kyle Joseph does deserve an honourable mention for the way he started the following campaign, but Rhodes' numbers in that small period edges it, despite things not working out beyond that.
