Joy of six for Holloway

11 December 2010 19:01
Blackpool manager Ian Holloway spoke of his pride after his side secured their sixth Barclays Premier League win of the season. Former Leicester striker DJ Campbell's third goal for the club in the 48th minute was enough to secure a 1-0 victory against Stoke at the Britannia Stadium. Blackpool have 22 points on the board already and are on course to retain their status following their surprise promotion to the top flight through the Championship play-offs. Holloway admitted they are ahead of schedule and said: "Someone had us down for only 10 (points) after 38 games. Bit of a laughing stock we were going to be. "I just want to keep going. Twenty-two points won't keep you safe. How many more do we need? Maybe more than 40 points. "To come to a place that is so hard to win at, it was a fantastic display. We rode our luck, our `keeper was exceptional. This is as good as we have been. We had some big performances and DJ deserved the goal for the way he is playing."
