Tough Draw for Blues Development Squad
A scrambled goal from Papa Bouba Diop rescued a point for Blues Development Squad against Barnsley at the Wast Hills training ground yesterday. Barnsley took the lead late in the first half through Jordan Clark before Diop’s effort on the stroke of half time levelled things up.

Play From the Whistle: Blackpool Preview
Blues travel to Blackpool tonight in the wake of two successive 3-2 defeats looking to get something from Michael Appleton’s Tangerines. It makes the second game in a busy six-day spell and it will be interesting to see if and how Clark changes things.
