Season of promise ends with whimper
Mark Tinkler battles for possession in the second leg of our playoff semi-final against Blackpool. The visitors had won 2-0 in the first leg at Bloomfield Road, and a Brett Ormerod goal midway through the first half crushed any remaining hope. Substitute Jermaine Easter was sent off on a chastening night for Pools.
