BLACKPOOL 3 v 2 Cardiff

Blackpool twice came from behind to defeat Cardiff and reach the Premier League for the first time after an engaging and, at times, breathtaking final at a sun-soaked Wembley.

The Tangerines won 3-2, with all the goals coming during an opening half of unbelievable excitement and occasionally awful defending.
Michael Chopra and Joe Ledley twice put Cardiff ahead with crisp strikes but a Charlie Adam free-kick and a close-range finish from Gary Taylor-Fletcher drew the Lancashire side level on each occasion - before Brett Ormerod struck the winner shortly before the interval with a low strike.

The result completes a remarkable season for Blackpool, who can now plan for the top-flight for the first time since the 1970-71 campaign.

It also caps a sensational first season in charge for Seasiders boss Ian Holloway, who has stuck to his attacking principles all year and did so again at Wembley by sending his team out in a bold 4-3-3 formation. (BBC Sport)

The Tangerine Dream

With The Seasiders achieving the seemingly impossible ... arriving in The English Premiership via the back door ... making me an extremely proud Blackpool supporter ... I thought it a perfect opportunity to record their progress from this point forward .... hence 'the tangerine dream'.

WELL DONE BLACKPOOL.

What a stunning, stunning achievement ... from favourites to be relegated to Premiership glory!
