Talking of Blackpool, they entered the Christmas period in the relegation zone a couple of years ago, but went on to win the L1 play-offs five months later.
I just thought I'd mention that.
Let's hope that they are ground-sharing with Millwall by then. We have the new stadium and they are sharing a ground with their bitter rivals, Scumwall. Could being an Albion fan get any better than that?

People say that Micky was lucky during his first spell at Albion because he had Zamora. But Zamora was the cutting edge of a team packed with blokes (Cullip, Chippy, Oatway, Brooker, etc) who would have run through walls for Micky Adams. Micky succeeded at Albion first time round because he...

We seem to specialise in losing sequences. In the last 10 years, under the named managers, we have lost the stated number of consecutive games.
Wood = 10 (1999)
Hinshlewood/Coppell = 12 (2002)
McGhee = 6 (2005)
Wilkins = 6 (2006/07)
I hope that Micky's not 3 games into another major sequence...
I've a feeling that Wilkins will prove Dick Knight very wrong very soon. I hope that Wilkins does prove Knight wrong, even though I approved of the ousting of the former and the appointment of Adams. We all want Wilkins to do well as a manager.
