Oldham 0-1 Blackpool

Veteran Andy Morrell scored Blackpool's second-half winner to send Oldham crashing to a fourth straight defeat.

The 32-year-old struck in the 67th minute with a simple tap-in from strike-partner Ben Burgess's cross.

Home Paul Rachubka had to be at his best to tip Paul Warne's 20-yard effort onto the bar, before Chris Porter hit the woodwork again with a free-kick.

However, Blackpool's win was deserved and Keigan Parker should have made it 2-0 only to somehow shoot wide late on.
