Blackpool skipper Adam has pop at ticker of Middlesbrough, Sheffield Utd players

Blackpool ace Charlie Adam has taken a pop at the big clubs struggling in the Championship.

Adam and his Pool teammates have stunned doomsayers with their success this season.

He told Sky Sports: "When it came down to the nitty-gritty, and we knew we had a right good chance, I think we won 10 of the last 12 games. Nobody expected anything of us last year, maybe that's why we were successful in the Championship.

"There are some big teams in that division now, such as Sheffield United and Middlesbrough, who have struggled - maybe they have not got the right characters at the club to take them up where they should be.

"But reputation is nothing - you just have to go out and play. Mentally, it has been a big thing for us this year because we are facing some of the world's best players, but I hope every supporter who has seen Blackpool play has said we are good team.

"Now we have nine cup finals left, and that's how we will attack each game."
