I wouldn't worry about it, Blackpool Police are more than used to crowds of píssed up people, deal with it every week and will be able to spot and deal with potential trouble before it has chance to start. Rather than just milling around with a handycam and a few barking dogs.
As has also been stated elsewhere, the ground is a Football Stadium so has stricter rules, and probably better trained stewards, it is Illegal to be drunk inside a Football Stadium (probably the same for rugby) and some football grounds are quite strict on this.
