Blackpool will now have first-team coach Richard Keogh as interim head coach, and his first game will be Saturday's trip to Cambridge United.

Critchley, who was in his second spell as manager of the Seasiders, inflicted Pompey’s biggest defeat in the 2023/24 season as his side wiped the Blues aside to secure a 4-0 win at Fratton Park in November 2023. After going 2-0 up shortly after half-time, Joe Morrell was then shown a red card and Pompey soon dismantled as Blackpool put two more past Will Norris.
