"Blackpool have sacked veteran boss Steve Bruce after one year in charge after a poor start to the League One season. The 64-year-old, who has managed over 1,000 games, replaced Neil Critchley at Bloomfield Road in September 2024."
"He guided them to a ninth-placed finish last season and hopes were high for a promotion push this time around. However, Saturday's home defeat by AFC Wimbledon was a seventh defeat in 11 league games and left them second from bottom."

Blackpool have dismissed Steve Bruce after one year in charge following a poor start to the League One season. The 64-year-old manager, who has overseen over 1,000 games, took over from Neil Critchley at Bloomfield Road in September 2024. Bruce led the club to a ninth-place finish last season, raising expectations of a promotion challenge. A run of results this season, including seven defeats in 11 league matches, culminated in Saturday’s home loss to AFC Wimbledon. The defeat left Blackpool second from bottom and prompted the club to relieve Bruce of his duties.
