Blackpool’s sold-out home clash with Manchester United on Saturday will face a last minute pitch inspection to decide whether the game goes ahead.
Bloomfield Road doesn't possess under-soil heating facilities, whilst temperatures continue to plummet during the winter period.
The conditions have also had an effect on the Seasiders' Squires Gate training ground, which also lacks such facilities.
"Whereas most teams can train under their beautiful bubble, we haven't really got anywhere," Ian Holloway said this week. "What we might use is the beach. I might have to take them indoors, an aerobics class or something.
"We went to train on the beach last year but it was frozen so we went to the casino instead, got the bacon sandwiches in and organised a poker tournament, which they loved. But that's not exactly what you need to do before you play Manchester United, is it?"
