What a fantastic half! When do you see premier league games like that? I love the football league - real football and real fans!

 

I hope Blackpool win but then I wish Dave Jones well. Is it me or there's Saints connections in just about every televised game?

I'm not sure you can count the FA cup as an EPL match;)

Unfortunately, Blackpool, and Cardiff are fighting for the right to be next season's whipping boys in The Prem, but at least when they come back down they'll have parachute money.

Ormerod, Ormerod, Ormerod. Really so happy for Brett. Will really be the crowning glory to his career. Few nicer guys every played for Saints than Brett. Well done Blackpool in getting back to the top League.

Wanted Blackpool to go up. Always amusing to see teams that don't seem like they should be there going up.

 

And it means the Welsh will shut up about Cardiff going up. It's all they've been on about this week.

 

Brett, Euell and Wright (though got a feeling he's been released) going up then.

indeed..trouble is, in this country we automatically write managers off as soon as they mess up...only a select few dont mess up..

 

look at pards...I dont think he is best like at charlton..arry the same here...jol messed up at spurs etc etc etc

Nice to see Blackpool promoted. Now they have a completely new chapter to write in their history books. Not since the 1970's have Blackpool been in with the elite.

 

Off to General Sports. I'll leave a link.

Also a thought for a pint sized, squeaky voiced ex player and manager of ours who started his career at Blackpool. A happy day for him as he looked down.

Nice one, ESB. Bally will indeed be pleased.

Yeah, Merrington would have had a little smile on him today.

It'll be interesting how Ollie restructures the team, as to be honest, this is a bit of an unexpected outcome, and the squad is weak, even when measured against other previously promoted 'minnows' such as Burnley. He's got Charlie Adam, who is likely to develop into a 'proper' Premiership player, and Brett, who actually has Prem experience, ( though he is slower now as his injuries have taken their toll, and he struggles to last more than 60 minutes ). But the loanees, such as DJ Cambell, Dobbie, and Coleman will go back, ( although I can see Everton loaning Coleman back to them next season ). Also, players such as Ben Burgess and Euell are patently not up to scratch.

Still, it will be a real rollercoaster season, and there's nowhere better for rollercoasters than Blackpool ! They have apparently already sold out the planned allocation of season tickets, on the expectation of a Wembley win !
