The best 3 teams for the seaosn went up, though I am not sure if the best team on the day won today. Well done West Ham, bad luck Blackpool!
The division will be as wide open as the Blackpool end at Wembley. They tried to spread out to look like a crowd but it didn't work. How few tickets did they sell. But commiserations to Blackpool, the best team lost on the day.
Think it would have been wide open any way: if West Ham had failed they were screwed - Premiership squad almost unaltered on big wages, new signings aplenty (Vaz Te, Maynard, Nolan etc). They would have faced a massive clearout over the summer, and probably have finished nowhere next year. As for Blackpool - they will still be in competition for the top six.
