On this St George's day in 
MIDDLESBRO’ FOUGHT HARD FOR THEIR POINT It may from save them relegation
THIS was “D" - day for Middlesbrough, with everything at stake, including First Division status. For Blackpool it was just another match to play before the season’s end in a fortnight’s time, offering nothing except a £2 bonus for a win and a chance to give aid and succour to neighbouring Preston, another team in the relegation belt.
Ground question FOR Blackpool, I think, the present unmistakable trend of events has a certain significance. Blackpool as a First Division club obviously require a ground of greater capacity than the present enclosure at Bloomfield-road. For as football seems to be going these days - and not only in Blackpool but everywhere - a 50,000 ground will suffice for all Blackpool’s requirements until the lean years have passed.
