Ormerod desperate for summer signings

Blackpool striker Brett Ormerod is desperate for Ian Holloway to finally find some luck in his search for summer signings.

The Tangerines boss has been scouring the market looking for deals but has been left frustrated so far.

Francis Jeffers has been handed a trial at Bloomfield Road as Holloway looks for reinforcements to give the Seasiders a chance of staying up.

And Ormerod, whose Play-Off final winner against Cardiff sealed Blackpool's shock promotion to the Premier League, reckons a raft of new signings is crucial to their survival hopes.

"We obviously need to sign a few players to give us a chance," he said.

"It's a demanding league full of world class players - we will be left behind pretty quickly if we can't get some guys in.

"It will be difficult to get the right player as there's a difference between signing someone who can help and just going out and signing anyone.

"So hopefully we can get it right. We've got such a fantastic manager, I am sure he will get it right."
