What a season this is turning out to be. Not many people gave us much of a chance of staying in the Championship at the start, never mind vying for a place in the Premiership. Last week's Seasider's victory against already relegated Peterboro and Swansea's defeat against Sheffield Utd, ensured that we occupied the last play-off position at their expense. It now means we go into the last game against Bristol City at Bloomfield Rd on Sunday a point better off than the Swans. All the tickets for the game have been sold and a crowd of 12,000 is expected. It is also being televised live by Sky Sports ( better late than never). Although Bristol City have nothing to play for after finishing a disappointing season for them in mid table, they will be out to spoil our chances of making it to the play-offs. Why? Well, Ollie started his football career playing for their arch rivals, Bristol Rovers and they have also recently appointed Steve Coppull as their new manager, so they will be out to impress him. Ollie won't allow the players to get complacent and he will gee them up ready for the final push. If we managed to get into the play-offs I fancy our chances against any of the other teams and can see us go all the way to the final at Wembley. Whatever happens this season has been a pleasure to watch. If there are any neutrals out there, throw your weight behind the boys in Tangerine.
