Out of the two, I would like to see Swindon go up as it would give us a couple of local derbies to look forward to next season...

Exactly! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

Yay. I was thinking that Millwall were now promoted even though I knew it was a POSF (blame tiredness). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) Perhaps we won't have to play them after all. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/party1.gif)

We have to play my three most disliked teams next year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
I'm struggling to think who the other two teams are...

Think back to last year's League 1 playoffs, and who played Millwall then, and who got promoted the season before. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) One of the teams is best left anonymous, as there are some supporters on here, but they are pretty much a Derby team for us and most of their supporters seem to hate us.

Big day today. At 3pm, we have the Championship play-off final between Cardiff and Blackpool. And at 7:45pm, it's the Champions League final between Inter Milan and Bayern Munich.

I hope Blackpool get promoted, but I think it'll be Cardiff...

Blackpool have a 3-2 advantage at half-time in what is turning out to be a really good contest.

Well done to Blackpool. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) That's not what I would have predicted at the start of the season. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

The manager who took Leicester down to League 1 has now taken his replacement team out of the Championship in the other direction. What are Blackpool going to do about their facilities, which I don't think are Prem standard, and do they have any chance of surviving? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

I think I tipped them to go down, so they've done extremely well to get promoted!

Capacity-wise, it is quite low. Hopefully they will be able to play at their own ground, but otherwise, they may have to groundshare with Blackburn or someone. Bloomfield Road's capacity is 12,555, which in comparison is pretty much the same as Oxford United, and smaller than teams such as Peterborough, Brentford and Carlisle. Their ground as a Championship club is 23rd - the only other ground that's smaller is Scunthorpe. But there are plans to increase it to 16,000.

It'll be tough for Blackpool to stay up, but you look at Hull and Wigan who were only in League Two ten years ago and they managed to stay up (Hull once and Wigan five times), so who knows. I think for a start they need to strengthen defensively and they certainly could do with a goalkeeper who has a bit of Premier League experience - someone like Steve Simonsen from Stoke for example who's now a third choice keeper there.

We saw some Blackpool fans pass the Pizza Express in Finchley Road today. They looked a bit down, and I guessed that they had lost. Wrong... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

They might've been Cardiff City fans in disguise (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

England are in action tonight (feels weird saying that on a Monday (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)).

Let's hope for a British double victory tonight with Andy Murray squeezing through to the second round of the French Open.
