Holloway moves for Swansea forward on loan

Sky Sports understands Swansea forward Stephen Dobbie is poised to rejoin Blackpool on loan. A number of Championship clubs have been chasing Dobbie's signature, but it appears Blackpool are set to win the race for the talented attacker. Dobbie enjoyed a successful spell on loan at Blackpool in the 2009/10 season, helping them win promotion to the Premier League. The 29-year-old has struggled to hold down a regular place in the Swans side this season, making just nine appearances. Blackpool boss Ian Holloway is keen to bolster his squad before the close of the loan window and he is hoping to strike a deal. Swansea manager Brendan Rodgers had been reluctant to loan out Dobbie after rejecting several offers for the Scot in the January transfer window. But with the Welsh club all-but sure of survival, Rodgers will now sanction the move so that he can get some first-team action under his belt.
