Ian Holloway has confirmed that he will be remaining at Bloomfield Road following Blackpool’s relegation.

The Tangerines were consigned to the Championship on Sunday as they suffered a 4-2 defeat to Manchester United.

Holloway, who had a year to run on his contract, had expressed his intention to stay with the club pending talks with chairman Karl Oyston over its direction.

The manager wrote on Twitter this afternoon: “I will definitely be staying at Blackpool. Discussions are being had about contracts but you haven’t seen the back of me yet. Ian.”
