Alan Mahon
Mahon, who has not started a game for Burnley this season, will remain at Blackpool until the end of the season and will hope to get some first team football.

Owen Coyle said: "Alan Mahon is a lad I have so much time for and I hold him in very high esteem. He has been a terrific servant for me at this football club and I've no doubt he will do his best to keep Blackpool in the Championship.

"He has been limited in the number of games he should be playing which is unfortunate because he is a quality player."I gave him my word that if something came up and he was able to go and play a bit I would let him do that. We are well covered I the midfield area, so that is one reason we allowed Alan to go and we wish him every success."
