Blackpool manager Neil McDonald has spoken to his club's official website following Saturday afternoon's Sky Bet League 1 defeat to Walsall, and has taken full responsibility for his side's poor performance as they were put to the sword by Dean Smith's Saddlers.
Speaking to BlackpoolFC.co.uk, McDonald said; "We were totally outplayed today. It's my responsibility to put it right. I'll take it on the chin and look to put things right.
"It's not nice losing games and it's not nice losing goals. We have to do even more than what we're doing and put it right."
"I thought Walsall were brilliant today, I thought they defended to a man, passed it better than us and took their chances better than us. There's lots of work to do, both on-and-off the pitch.
"In patches we've shown that we can stand up and be counted, but in other patches we're letting ourselves down. It's only with hard work that you can get through that. We've been punished but we've been outplayed today."
