Football: Blackpool fan protests on roof of Arsenal team bus


Supporters of third-tier Blackpool have regularly protested against club owner Owen Oyston and many are boycotting home games with gates averaging only 4,129 at their 17,000-seater ground which hosted Premier League football in 2010-11. The protest did not last long, according to the BBC, and the Arsenal team arrived in good time for kickoff. Despite fears of more protests the tie was incident-free as Arsenal cruised to victory with teenager Joe Willock scoring twice and Alex Iwobi once.
