DANNY Livesey is having to be patient as he awaits his transfer to Blackpool.

The 19-year-old Wanderer is set for a move for a nominal fee to Bloomfield Road, where his former Reebok teammate Colin Hendry is now in charge. But the transfer wheels are turning slowly.

"We're talking but it's difficult to pin people down at this stage because Sam Allardyce is very busy as well," Hendry said. "But we are hopeful."

Wanderers will kick off their programme of pre-season friendlies next Wednesday against Dundee United.

The match (ko 7pm) will be played at the County Ground, Leyland - the headquarters of the Lancashire Football Association - and has been made an all-ticket event because of the ground's limited capacity.

Tickets must be purchased in advance from the Lancashire FA (tel 01772 624000). Terrace prices are £5 for adults and £3 concessions with stand tickets £6 and £4.
