Play off final at Wembley

Half time score Blackpool 3 - 2 Cardiff (it's on Home cable Channel 14 for anyone interested)

Full time score Blackpool 3 Cardiff 2.
Congrats to Ian Dowie and the "Towerboys", enjoy your stay in the premiership.

not mentioning who predicted Blackpool to go up with six games left and when they were in 9th or 10th place.





Toon back in the Premiership at the first attempt

Congrats to the "TOON" for being promoted back to the premier at the first attempt (with 6 games to spare !!)
A job very well done by Chris & the boys.

Only downside is that I've either got to get "TRUE" re-installed for next season, or spend FAR too much time for my own good sitting in Udon bars watching the games

I have a sneaking feeling that Blackpool will get promoted via the playoffs. Forest can't get results away from home, Cardiff are far too inconsistent, I don't think Leicester are ready or able, and Lord help the Premier if Swansea make it (18 goals in 21 home games and 19 in 21 away games all season).

Statto,do you do card readings and horoscopes too in your spare time? my prediction for both is Newcastle will fight to stay up and Blackpool will last as long as a candyfloss on north pier when it is blowing a gale and pisching down with rain(just another summers day in the Las Vegas of the north).

A slip there Statto - unless I'm missing something. That should be Ian Holloway, the manager, shouldn't it? Dowie (loved at the Palace )was/is still? with Hull City, but failed to keep them up, of course.

Fantastic achievement from Blackpool. Ian Holloway is indeed their manager, he is completely bonkers but, gets results! Awash with tangerine at Charing Cross station on the way up to Wembley, popular winners and congrats on the 'southern based' Lancashire folk as they came back! The ground capacity of 12,555, roughly, , is somewhat small, but any visiting fans not getting into the small ground, can go to the Blackpool Amusement Park instead! Or enjoy such Lancashire delicacies as deep fried Mars bars in batter. Lovely!

Yes sorry .... my mistoooook ........ got me Ian's all mixed up. I was too relieved that the EPL was still the EPL and not the E & WPL.
It will be great havin' him back, even if only for the post match interviews with Sky reporters .......if they ask a stupid question,they are sure to get a stupid reply

With thanks to Sky sports for reminding me ......... one of his famous quotes.

Nice quotes, it was very inspirational message for the players.I know many of the players, like this quotes. And hope all of them give their best in playing the game and be a sport because that's the important things that the players must learn.
