'Let the goal celebrations last' - Blackpool FC boss Holloway

by Thomas Anthony Wilson. Published Tue 09 Nov 2010 20:08

Ian Holloway has urged his players to savour their goal celebrations in order to regain their focus after scoring.

The Seasiders continued there impressive form with a 2-2 draw against Everton on Saturday, but were immediately pegged back twice after scoring themselves.

The same problem has also occurred in games against Fulham, Blackburn Rovers and Manchester City,

Asked what his team should do to prevent the same situation happening in the future, Holloway said: "Take longer to celebrate to be honest!"

"We get far too excited and rush back and kick off within 30 to 40 seconds."

"When we played Blackburn they took two minutes after scoring before the game restarted and settled themselves right down."

"I think there's still an inexperience at this level."

"But, although I may not sound it, I am pleased with the level of football we're producing. As the weeks and months go on hopefully they'll gain more and more confidence and stay calm in those situations."

Blackpool travel to Aston Villa tomorrow, and could move up to sixth place in the league with a victory at Villa Park.

Craig Cathcart will unfortunately miss the game due to a knee injury. A scan is set to discover the extent of the problem.

Dekel Keinan looks likely to take his place in the starting line-up.
