The Seasiders will have to complete the season without another body as it was revealed that Tom Aldred will miss the rest of the campaign with a hamstring injury. The 24 year old who joined from Accrington Stanley picked up the injury in training on Thursday.

It means that Blackpool, also without a recognised right back, will now have to complete the season with just Darren O'Dea, Peter Clarke, Grant Hall and Niall Maher available to play alongside Charles Dunne at left back.

Lee Clark told the club's official website ""Tom picked up the injury in training on Thursday and obviously missed the game against Bolton on Saturday. He's set to go for a scan on Tuesday, but we expect him to be out for the rest of the season now."

With Nyron Nosworthy loaned out at Portsmouth and Tony McMahon at Bradford, it leaves Clark short of bodies for the remaining half dozen games of the season. Now if only that McGahey chap had stayed!
