On this day in 
MclNTOSH’S FIRST GOAL FOR BLACKPOOL Willie McIntosh scoring his first for Blackpool to win the game four minutes from time. If ever a forward deserved to win a match it was the man from Preston, aggressive all the time in a front line which otherwise was menacing only in spurts and flashes.
Bad luck, North End THE lower a club falls in the table and the less luck it has. Blackpool found that out so often during the between-the-wars years. Now Preston North End are discovering that the gods of chance show no mercy to a team in the doldrums.
For Tom Finney, that great wing forward, to break his jaw in the Leicester Cuptie was the last straw.
Blackpool and North End are rivals. No quarter is given or asked when they meet - and they will be meeting again at Blackpool on February 26.
