Blackpool manager Simon Grayson has warned his players that he cannot cope with too many repeats of the 4-3 weekend win at Watford.

The Seasiders came from behind three times at Vicarage Road, before a last-gasp Alan Gow strike secured a thrilling victory.

Grayson told the Blackpool Gazette: "It was an incredibly open game and when it's like that it isn't good for us as managers to watch.

"It hasn't exactly done my health much good, but I suppose looking at it from a fans' point of view then it must have been terrific entertainment.

"I hope they enjoyed it because these are the types of games that don't come along very often, thank goodness.

"It's a hallmark of any good team that they can show that much desire and determination to keep on coming back and never know when they are beaten.

"I think a lot of teams might not have come back, but these players did and they showed great spirit to keep going and to come from behind three times."
