On this final day of the season in 
BLACKPOOL END SEASON WITH ANOTHER DRAW Nobody could accuse either Blackpool or Burnley of merely playing out time to the season’s end in this match. A lot of the football was of indifferent quality, but there was a pace and intensity in it which redeemed a lot and gave the match at least some dramatic value.
Blackpool should have won, had sufficient of the game to have finished in front by a distance, but again the forwards played football which was too close and had too many obvious and telegraphed passes in it.
BLACKPOOL FC HAS £350,000 PLAN FOR 64,000 GROUND
BLACKPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB are planning to increase the ground capacity at Bloomfield - road from 31,000 to over 64,000. Cost is estimated at £350,000.
