Blackpool have sacked veteran boss Steve Bruce after one year in charge after a poor start to the League One season.
The 64-year-old, who has managed over 1,000 games, replaced Neil Critchley at Bloomfield Road in September 2024.
He guided them to a ninth-placed finish last season and hopes were high for a promotion push this time around.
However, Saturday's home defeat by AFC Wimbledon was a seventh defeat in 11 league games and left them second from bottom.
