Blackpool boss Ian Evatt is waiting to hear the extent of the injury which saw Josh Bowler withdrawn during Saturday's 3-1 win over Cardiff City.

Ashley Fletcher scored twice and Tom Bloxham once at Bloomfield Road, where keeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell put in his strongest performance.

However, Pool also saw Hayden Coulson exit at halftime followed by Bowler's departure.

Evatt said: “It's his calf, I'm not sure how bad. It's definitely a muscle injury and not just cramp.
