Gilks: We're the team to avoid

Blackpool goalkeeper Matt Gilks is certain no-one will want to play Blackpool in the npower Championship play-offs.

The Tangerines, bidding for an immediate return to the Barclays Premier League, currently sit fourth in the table after a run of four victories in six outings, during which time they have conceded just one goal. Ian Holloway's men are sure to be part of the end-of-season showpiece, and Gilks is convinced their momentum stands them in good stead to replicate their feat of two years ago - when they beat Cardiff 3-2 in the play-off final at Wembley - and secure promotion back to the top flight. "We've got a history in these play-offs," he told BBC Sport. "I don't think any team, whoever it may be, will want to come here and faces us, with our dogged determination and our ability to finish teams off."
