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:
13. Luke Mariette
Luke Mariette made three senior appearances for the Seasiders, as well as spending time on loan with the likes of Southport and Macclesfield Town. The midfielder joined Flint Town during the off-season, and has scored one goal and provided one assist in 19 outings in the Cymru Premier. Photo: CameraSport - Lee Parker
14. Tayt Trusty
Tayt Trusty's senior debut for Blackpool didn't go as planned, with the youngster suffering a serious injury in November 2023. The midfielder departed the club last summer, and has since joined Maidstone, whom he's made 20 appearances for in National League South. Photo: CameraSport - Lee Parker
