Blackpool boss Lee Clark missed dramatic equaliser because of fan argument

Blackpool boss Lee Clark has revealed that he missed his side's dramatic late equaliser against Nottingham Forest because he was arguing with a vociferous supporter.

David Ferguson scored deep into stoppage time to earn the Tangerines a 4-4 draw in an exhilarating match at Bloomfield Road, which saw Clark's men spurn two winning positions against Dougie Freedman's side.

"The lads dug deep and I didn't actually see the equaliser because I was getting a bit of grief from one of our own fans for not being attacking enough with eight players," Clark told Sky Sports News.

"I was busy having a conversation with him. Thankfully David popped up with the equaliser. I'm drained and I wasn't even involved. I've never experienced anything like that in my life."

Blackpool remain bottom of the Championship table, 10 points adrift of safety.
