Karl Oyston responds to criticism from Jose Riga

Blackpool chairman Karl Oyston has insisted that he is doing all he can for the club after receiving criticism from manager Jose Riga.

Oyston has been targeted by Blackpool supporters throughout the summer due to the club's struggles to bring in players, and Riga has joined fans in asking him to be more efficient in the transfer market.

"Despite the accusations we are absolutely doing our job at the club but we need to be put in a position to sign players," Oyston told the Blackpool Gazette.

"There's a lot of negativity around the club at the moment, some I understand and some I simply won't accept.

"I'm fully aware of the situation we are in and of course us making the worst start for more than 100 years alarms us."

Blackpool return to action against Millwall on Saturday.
