The Seasiders are not happy with their chairman.

Blackpool fans staged a pitch-invasion in the middle of their match against Huddersfield on Saturday to protest chairman Owen Oysten.

Blackpool were a Premier League outfit four seasons ago but now look set to drop to League One after enduring one of the worst campaigns in the club’s history.

Oyston deprived the club of much needed funds and this season which has sparked outrage from the Blackpool faithful. Without a win in their last 17 league matches, the fans decided to take a stand, storm the pitch and refuse to leave.

By far the biggest cheer of the day came when one fan in a mobility scooter came down from the stands to join in the demonstration.
