I can’t imagine there will be many minutes added on after that drab first-half. Oh, we’ve got another two to sit through.

Can Pool capitalise and edge their noses in front before the break?

Sonny Carey, who has just been booked, tries to win another soft foul by going to ground far too easily. The officials ignore him this time but he was lucky not to pick up a second yellow for simulation. Silly.

Shayne Lavery runs the channels to claim the ball by the left flank, but his cross is easily claimed by Ryan Allsop.

Sonny Carey is now shown a yellow card for halting a Derby counter.

Sonny Carey is somewhat generously awarded a free-kick by the touchline. He stands over the free-kick alongside Reece James.

Tom Lawrence opts to shoot, rather than cross. But he blasts his effort straight into the wall and Pool are able to clear.

Turns out the referee has awarded Derby the free-kick after all that. Potential danger here in a good crossing position for the hosts.

Wintle looks to be fine and will continue once he’s allowed to return to the pitch.

Referee Andy Woolmer awards Blackpool a free kick deep in their own territory following a foul on James Husband. The Derby fans felt it should have gone the other way.

Ryan Wintle, meanwhile, is down receiving treatment.

Shayne Lavery skips a couple of challenges to get Blackpool up the pitch but his progress is halted by Curtis Davies, who makes a well-timed challenge in the box.

Ryan Allsop claims Shayne Lavery's glancing header from Reece James' left-wing cross. Lavery looking typically lively, as you'd expect.

Shayne Lavery curls an effort towards goal on his weaker left foot which creeps just wide of Ryan Allsop’s far post. Good effort.
