IAN HOLLOWAY TAKES BLACKPOOL TO PLAY-OFFS

Two seasons ago Ian Holloway was Leicester's manager when the Foxes were relegated to League One-the lowest point in the Foxes history.He was sacked by chairman Milan Mandaric who appointed Nigel Pearson.Holloway has performed the miracle of taking Blackpool to the Championship play-offs after they drew 1-1 at home to Bristol City while Swansea were goalless against Doncaster.Now they play Nottingham Forest at home the semi-final first leg.Meanwhile Pearson won the League One title at the first attempt and has reached the play-offs also at the first attempt.Now Leicester are also at home in the first leg.Their opponents are Cardiff.It would be ironic if Leicester were to meet Blackpool in the final at Wembley.Both have a bit to do before that happens!
