Blackpool have recalled centre-back Ashley Eastham from Cheltenham Town where he has been on loan to gain experience.
The 18 year old only last week agreed a month-long extension to his stay at Whaddon Road which would have taken him until the end of January.
But red cards to Seasiders defenders Ian Evatt and Rob Edwards during last weekend’s FA Cup defeat to Ipswich have left manager Ian Holloway short of options at the back.
