AFC Blackpool safe despite postponement
The Jepson Way club are officially safe from relegation in the Hallmark Security League first division following bottom club Ashton Town’s 2-0 home defeat by Stockport Town on Sunday.
That result leaves 19th-placed AFC 14 points clear of bottom two Ashton and Eccleshall with only 12 points still up for grabs.
The Bacup match was postponed due a waterlogged pitch and has been rescheduled for Wednesay (7.45pm), when AFC’s neighbours Squires Gate are in premier division action at Darwen.
