Blackpool boss Paul Ince prepared for Derby County test

Blackpool manager Paul Ince has insisted that his side will be ready to face Derby County on Saturday.

The 46-year-old has admitted that he has been frustrated with the team's recent performances, including Tuesday evening's defeat at Yeovil Town where Blackpool finished the match with eight men.

"It was obviously massively disappointing that three of our most experienced players got sent off," Ince told Blackpool's official website.

"In an ideal world you'd like to go to Derby with your best side but that's something we're not going to be able to do. However, one thing about these lads is that they always go and surprise you when you least expect it, so we'll go there and give it a right good go."

Blackpool currently sit sixth in the Championship.
