Kingson shelves contract talk

Blackpool goalkeeper Richard Kingson is keeping his focus on helping his side remain in the Premiership as he puts any contract talk on hold until the end of the season

The Ghana international says he is keen to stay on at Bloomfield Road.

Kingson, who joined Ian Holloway's side from Wigan on a one-year deal last September, is out of contract with the Premier League club in the summer.

The 32-year-old is happy to remain with Blackpool, but says he will wait until the end of the campaign to speak to the club over a new deal.

He told KickOff.com: "Yes, I would want to stay but I will leave that till when the season is all over.

"It has taken a lot of hard work to get games in the Premiership. It's a tough league to play in but I have dug in well."

Blackpool currently sit 15th in the table and just a point clear of the drop zone with eight games remaining.
