Blackpool boss relishes his players' Iron test

The Seasiders travel to Glanford Park on the back of an impressive start to life back in League One following last season’s promotion.

After losing their opening game at Bradford they have beaten the MK Dons, Oldham and AFC Wimbledon as well as drawing at Doncaster.

Bowyer said: “I really can’t wait. We have learned a lot about our players in the last five games but this one especially because they have got a wonderful manager in Graham Alexander and his assistant, Chris Lucketti.

“They have got a very good group of experienced players and they were in the play-offs last year so it just shows you what a good team they are and how they have gone about it.

“They have started the season in good form as well so I’m really looking forward to going and seeing how we pit ourselves against them and how we do.

“They are a very good team and I am really excited by watching our lads and seeing how we go about it.

“We will learn a lot about them after this 90 minutes with them.”
