One game playoff to determine the last of the three teams to get promoted to the Premier League along with Reading and Southampton from the Championship League... West Ham advanced with scores of 2-0 and 3-0 over sixth place Cardiff... Blackpool was a point behind Birmingham in the regular season standings (76-75) and they won at home in the first leg 1-0, and today tied Birmingham on the road 2-2 so they advance to the final with a aggregate of 3-2.. One game for promotion on May 19th at Wembley... There is huge money to the teams that get promoted

In the regular season Here are the two sides records. In the regular season WHU beat Blackpool pretty easy... 4-0 at home and 4-1 on the road. Here are the two clubs records in the regular season.
.................W..D..T
West Ham 24-14--8....86pts...(3rd place)
Blackpool 20-15-11....75pts...(5th place)


Nicknames for Blackpool..They have been called the Tangerines, the Seaside's and the 'Pool.

Nickname for West Ham. Way back in their past it was the Irons but now they are simply known as the 'Hammers'... Very cool names for both teams!!!
