Blackpool set to sack boss Paul Ince

Blackpool are set to sack boss Paul Ince – and make veteran skipper Barry Ferguson their new player-manager.

Ince’s relationship with chairman Karl Oyston is at an all-time low because of bad results and the future of his son, Tom.

Now Ince, who refused to meet the media after the defeat to Barnsley, is poised to be chopped and replaced internally.

Ferguson – a former Scotland captain – is a respected voice in the dressing room and will be asked to take charge with coach Steve Thompson.

It will be an ironic twist as Ferguson was banished on loan by Oyston last season and only brought back during Ince’s reign. Ince and assistant Alex Rae both look set to go as the Seasiders try to halt their slide.
