Josh Brownhill opened the scoring with a thumping strike from just outside the box, smashing a first time rocket into the top corner after Jay Rodriguez brought ...

You don't have success in the Prem anymore by playing in areas - and it'll trickle down to the Championship as well it's only a matter of time. We play spaces and that's important for me to put across, you only have to look at the goals we've scored this season it doesn't happen by coincidence. There was still time for a red card apiece with Ian Maatsen dismissed for a poor reaction to a Sonny Carey lunge that also saw the Blackpool man dismissed. We have played against direct situations before and it wasn't a problem for us. Burnley were rampant but gifted the visitors a way back into the game when Aro Muric played a short pass to Josh Cullen, who couldn't control it, and Theo Corbeanu profited to halve the deficit. It was two soon after when Nathan Tella took a sublime Harwood-Bellis pass down inside the box and finished neatly. From a spirit point of view, and there is ability in the group and they can play well and come to places like burnley that they can compete, they just need that from the start rather than at half time After the way we started and as poor as we were in that first ten minutes defensively, whether it be us as a back four or five as a unit, or individually - there were a couple of mistakes in there, we can be and we need to be better in the early parts of the games. Excellent second half display from the Seasiders to take a point from 3-1 down after a clinical first half display from the Clarets. They had to because they were under a bit of pressure and in the second half you have those moments on the sidelines where your heart skips a beat a little bit or you think something's going to happen - I didn't really have that other than one occasion. When centre halves are stepping out, you can't be aggressive, you have to look to give yourself a bit of a buffer - you have to drop at times and allow the space in front and we didn't do that well enough but then after that they did learn quickly. There was still a lot of fight within the team and I think once they saw that, they responded and the players responded from it as well.

Championship: Blackpool draw 3-3 at Burnley as Baggies hammer ... (The Guardian)

Blackpool bounced back to earn a point against Burnley in the Championship after a feisty derby that saw six goals and two dismissals late in the game.

And there’s a bit of frustration in the dressing room among the players because they knew they had them on the ropes.” “We were poor in the first 10 minutes and that is something we need to address but once we had dusted ourselves down, the way we responded was a real credit to the players and made me proud. Burnley took the lead after three minutes through Josh Brownhill and Nathan Tella quickly added a second, scoring on his first start for the club.

Burnley held to 3-3 draw after Blackpool comeback - match report (Lancashire Telegraph)

Burnley let a two-goal lead slip in a thrilling 3-3 draw against Lancashire rivals Blackpool as both sides finished with 10 men.

Jay Rodriguez flicked Taylor Harwood-Bellis’ long ball into Brownhill’s path and the midfielder struck a first-time right-foot shot into the top corner from 25 yards for his second goal of the season. Harwood-Bellis then provided the lofted through pass to set up Tella for his first after 11 minutes. Lavery intercepted Brownhill’s through pass with a touch back to Gabriel, but he stumbled before he could clear the ball – leaving the alert Tella to cut inside Marvin Ekpiteta and curl a shot into the top corner with the aid of a slight deflection off the Blackpool defender.

Chelsea's Ian Maatsen picked up crazy red card for Burnley vs ... (GiveMeSport)

The Dutch defender, who's on loan at Burnley from Chelsea, was sent off in the 3-3 draw vs Blackpool.

“What he (Maatsen) did was not dangerous, it was an error of a young player and a mistake in terms of game management. But I want to make absolutely clear that he is the one that got booted off the pitch. It’s going to happen to him again, because he’s a good player and he’ll have to manage that. What was Maatsen thinking?! “But it’s to recognise in those moments we have to take every advantage we can and take one for the team and we continue with 11. The pair of goals from the visitors, the second coming in the 76th minute, was far from the end of the action in Lancashire, though.

You don't have success in the Prem anymore by playing in areas - and it'll trickle down to the Championship as well it's only a matter of time. We play spaces and that's important for me to put across, you only have to look at the goals we've scored this season it doesn't happen by coincidence. You only have to look at nearly every team in the Premier League and nearly all of them have some degree of patience in the build up. For us there is a longer term play at stake as well, we have to have a team that is also good for the future and sometimes there are hard learnings. But that is the thing with new players, it is not as easy to integrate them because as soon as you do it you lose a part of your press, a little bit of organisation and the positions aren't quite right. We have played against direct situations before and it wasn't a problem for us. We still looked for the same spaces when the spaces have changed but that comes with a bit of time. That is everything we did in the first half and everything we didn't in the second. You do have to build some patience in your game, then once you manage to find the spaces and the free man, you have to have the intent and intensity to go forward and attack. Normally you get a little bit of time but with us, because we have that many players to integrate, it is a steep learning curve. There was still time for a red card apiece with Ian Maatsen dismissed for a poor reaction to a Sonny Carey lunge that also saw the Blackpool man dismissed. Burnley were rampant but gifted the visitors a way back into the game when Aro Muric played a short pass to Josh Cullen, who couldn't control it, and Theo Corbeanu profited to halve the deficit.
