Hide AdPool are gunning for for their fifth play-off triumph at Wembley when they walk out at the national stadium for the seventh time in a divisional final.
The Tangerines crept into the top seven on the last day of the regulation season thanks to a 3-1 win at home to Leyton Orient.
Promotion is now within their grasp thanks to their 6-5 aggregate win over Luton Town in the semi-finals.
That would be exactly what Blackpool deserve according to the club’s chief executive.

“The scenes at the end of the game at Luton Town on Thursday night show you how much it means to them.
“Gary Bowyer, his coaching staff and the players deserve an enormous amount of credit and support.
