Town’s post-international break blues continued after they were held to a 2-2 home draw by Blackpool. The Blues, who have now not won a league game after an international break for 22 matches stretching back to September 2014, went in front on eight via Gwion Edwards but the Tangerines levelled through Joe Nuttall on 22. Blackpool took the lead from a disputed penalty converted by Jay Spearing eight minutes after the restart but Luke Garbutt equalised for Town, also from the spot, on 58.
Town return to League One action against Blackpool on Saturday looking to end another of their hoodoos, their failure to win any of their last 21 league matches immediately after an international break. Earlier this week they halted a 15-game winless FA Cup run stretching back almost 10 years by beating Lincoln 1-0 at Sincil Bank.
