Blackpool boss Holloway stands by FA Cup selection

Blackpool boss Ian Holloway stands by his shadow FA Cup selection on the weekend.

Holloway insists he has no regrets over fielding an under-strength side, despite facing some considerable criticism over the weekend.

He said: "We are not even David if this league is Goliath, we are smaller than him. And we haven't even got a slingshot.

"As far as I am concerned I have done the right thing for my squad.

"The likes of Charlie Adam - I can't afford for them to get injured playing so many games in a month."
