Even prior to the sacking of Neil Critchley back in August, a number of long-serving players had headed towards the exit door, alongside a number of the club’s youngsters.
Since the appointment of Steve Bruce, there has been a change of approach at Bloomfield Road, which prompted further exits throughout the most-recent transfer window.
We’ve taken a closer look at how the recent permanent departures have performed since leaving the Seasiders:
