Blackpool goalkeeper Matt Gilks tasted Premier League football last season with the Tangerines and now the shotstopper is looking for his side to make a swift return to the top flight.
The Seasiders sit just one point off the play-off places in the Championship table in seventh spot, in what has once again been a very competitive league this term with any side capable of getting a result in any game.
There are only three points between sixth place and 12th in the table and Blackpool find themselves as one of the sides competing for a place in the Premier League. Anyone looking at the Championship betting odds online will be wondering if they can push on.
The North West outfit are unbeaten in their last three league games and with teams dropping points in unlikely fashion, Blackpool have looked in decent form of late.
Gilks has been a key player at Bloomfield Road and has recovered well after suffering injury set-backs in recent seasons.
Now the Blackpool No.1 is looking forward to helping his club secure more points as they hope to face the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur on a regular basis next season.
GIlks said: "Hopefully, a few more wins and with the run of games that we have got we can cement a place in the play-offs.
"I think we are eyeing automatic. We want to go up without the stress and worrying about the play-offs, but I think we are going to be up there at the end of the season anyway."
