Beesley and Coulson changed the Ewood Park score

Blackpool won 2–1 at Blackburn Rovers on 27 August 2024 in the Carabao Cup second round. Makhtar Gueye's 21st-minute penalty had put the home side in front. Blackpool were still behind deep into the second half before two goals changed the outcome.

Jake Beesley equalised in the 72nd minute and Hayden Coulson scored in the 77th. The gap between those goals is central to the story: an away side facing elimination moved into a winning position within five minutes. The final 2–1 score is easier to appreciate when that timing is visible.

Beesley's equaliser brought Blackpool back into contention, but Coulson's finish supplied the winning margin. Supporters revisiting the highlights can follow those two moments in order. The August date and second-round label identify this Ewood Park cup meeting when browsing older Blackpool reports.

Three wins set up Arsenal in the 2018 fourth round

In 2018/19, Blackpool beat Barnsley 3–1 at home, Doncaster Rovers 2–1 away and Queens Park Rangers 2–0 at home. Those victories carried the Seasiders through three rounds before an away meeting with Arsenal.

Arsenal won that fourth-round tie 2–1. Blackpool's campaign therefore included both a clean-sheet home victory over QPR and a narrower defeat against different opposition at the next stage. The sequence is more informative than simply noting that the run ended in London.

The home and away pattern also helps supporters locate a particular memory: Barnsley at home, Doncaster away, QPR at home and Arsenal away. Use the 2018/19 season label when checking those results, because they are separate from the later Blackburn comeback and should not be joined into one campaign.
