Blackpool boss Holloway struggling to find his keeper signing

Blackpool boss Ian Holloway is anxious about finding a new goalkeeper signing.

The Seasiders been given special dispensation to make a signing outside the transfer window because of their goalkeeping crisis.

"We need another goalie as quickly as possible but we are grateful to the Premier League because we have 25 players in our squad already," said Holloway.

"We are only allowed a one-month loan but everybody we asked last Friday said no.

"No-one really wants to loan out their second keeper and the clubs with lots of them, like Chelsea and Arsenal, have all their keepers registered for the Champions League, so that is a no-no.

"Anyone in and around us in the table won't loan us one. We have asked them, very politely and very nicely, but we had no joy.

"We ran out of time last week but we will try to solve it during this week."
