Following his side’s 3-2 home defeat to West Bromwich Albion, Blackpool boss Holloway was unhappy with a penalty decision against Andy Butler who was adjudged to have brought down Ishmael Miller.
The Seasiders are a point outside the play-off places, but Holloway has insisted the priority is still to be in the Championship next season.
He said: "I said before the game that our next two matches could be defining. It is a shame we had to lose this one on a referee's penalty decision.
"My lads are shattered about that decision because they thought it was a fair tackle.
"However I thought we did well against a side I consider to be the best in the Championship.
“They have a class squad based on established Premiership players and we gave them a really good run for their money. They know that.
"We will have to see how the next couple of games go but my target for the season was always going to be 52 points and safety. That remains my target, anything else is a bonus."
