Going up the M6 this morning was fantastic. All the cars, buses, Limos etc all with orange flags and balloons going south bound.

"Little old Blackpool" we battled and fought and now have £90 million and a place in the premiership. No-body can knock us or take that achievement away as what is being billed as one of the greatest football achievements in years.

Arise Sir Holloway and Blackpool FC so so proud Brilliant

Yeah but it is only Blackpool..... The Championship beckons...



Only joshing! There was time when they boasted some of the greatest players winning the 1953 FA Cup Final (the 'Matthews Final'), let's hope those times can be re-kindled.



Forget about 1982–83...

Just got up still thinking in a dream world. But the tangerine dream is deservedly now a reallity. A massive achievement from Ollie and the lads. The last three games we have come from behind to win with attractive attacking football.

Well done Blackpool, its great when a new team is promoted rather than the return of the 3 previously relegated from previous season.

Great game and hope they do well in Premier next season and their ground is full every match.

I'm sure there will be a lot of fans looking for the Blackpool away fixture next season so they can book up for weekend away - hoping its not in the middle of winter.

Best of luck to them and I hope they keep the same attacking attitude which would be a difference to normally promoted clubs.
