Blackpool In The Prem And Burnley In Europe?

We could be having a day out in Blackpool next season if they manage to gain promotion via the play offs. I never thought I would see the day but, if it happens, I reckon it would be fantastic to have such a small club in the top division. Good luck to them.

If Fulham win the Europa League, England would gain an extra place in next year's competition. This would go to a team via the Fair Play League, at the moment this place would go to Burnley.

Next season could be an interesting one!

Yeah, good luck to Blackpool this weekend, is nice to see a smaller local club doing well.

As much as I have always disliked Burnley, it was refreshing to see them in the prem rather than just the usual suspects - and i'm slightly sad they have gone down, as they were a game side earlier in the season before Coyle went.

A Cardiff / Blackpool final would be perfect and would keep the PL fresh, although it would be nice to see Forest back where they belong.

There is every possibility it could end up a Cardiff/Swansea playoff final....shudder to think.

Bet the police a dreading more the possibility that they could meet in the semis, two legs of total chaos. Will be good fun to watch on telly though
