    Blackpool or Cardiff ??

    so who would you rather come up in the play-off final on saturday ?? not that i'm biased or anything :wink:

    i'm looking forward to a right good day out on saturday and having 2 away games next season that are a hell of a lot closer than home ones.

    I'd love Blackpool to go up, think they have a chance if they dont give up if Cardiff go ahead early on.

    Agreed. Neither of them have the money to strengthen for the Premiership really. Means more chance of us staying up, even if we don't spend.

    Cardiff have the best squad and best chance of staying up but they are Welsh. Fuck em, it's the English Premier League.

    Thought Blackpool would go up before the play offs they are the form team and i'd love to see Holloway in the Premier League.

    crazy holloway has instilled a belief in the team that even if we go behind we keep our heads up knowing that we are more than capable of getting at least 1. the only game i've seen this season where we capitulated after going behind was at st james. he's also got us out of the putting 10 men behing the ball in the last 10 minutes when we were 1-0 up, we ended up drawing far too many games doing that last season.

    i have no doubts we'll be in the mire after week 1 next season if we come up but for a club of our size, who spent around £1m at the start of last season of which half was on charlie adam it will be a great achievement just to be there. the look on rooney, drogda, torres' face if they rack up at bloomfield rd next season will be priceless :eek:

    with our current run of form there's no reason why we can't do it, i just hope we settle quickly and don't let our nerves get the better of us.

    Other way round i think.

    Backed Cardiff aswell so if they go up bonus. All credit to Blackpool though for getting there. If Cardiff dont go up their will be a summer raid on there squad, they have some class players who could all do a job in the prem. Sounding like Hughton here..........

    a few have tried it this season and we always find other avenues but he's defnitely our biggest danger man, a very shrewd bit of business by holloway for £500k. i'm glad he didn't get booked in the play-offs, with him in even man marked there's always that chance.

    You've got to laugh at how Holloway calls the team 'Working Class Heroes'. Grand a week at least....proper team of paupers like!
