Armfield praise as Blackpool off to flier

CLUB legend Jimmy Armfield admits Blackpool are living a Tangerine dream after their jaw-dropping start to Premier League life.

Armfield spent his entire career at Bloomfield Road and was present at the DW Stadium on Saturday to witness Blackpool’s staggering 4-0 victory over Wigan.

As someone who remembers the Seasiders’ glory days, including the famous 1953 Matthews FA Cup final, Armfield had to pinch himself on his journey home last night when he thought about how far his old team had come.
