Blackpool got their Championship campaign off to a positive start last weekend.

The Tangerines were playing in England's second tier for the first time since 2014/15 after being promoted from League One last season.

It looked as if they would taste defeat against Bristol City in their return.

Chris Martin's 44th minute goal gave the home side the lead and they held on to that advantage until the end of normal time.

But Shayne Lavery popped up in the last minute of the game to equalise for Blackpool and give them a share of the spoils.

Blackpool fans and players celebrated the late goal wildly as they picked up a point on their return to the league.

But they wouldn't have gone as ballistic as one punter, who won an astonishing amount of money partly thanks to Lavery's goal.
