Blackpool winger Tom Ince claims reaching the npower Championship play-offs is the highlight of his career to date.

The Seasiders secured a top-six berth with last weekend's 4-0 thrashing of Lancashire neighbours Burnley.

Former Liverpool youngster Ince has played a vital role in boss Ian Holloway's promotion assault with a string of eye-catching performances on the flanks, but the 20-year-old is wary of some of the big guns Blackpool may encounter in pursuit of an immediate return to the Barclays Premier League.

"I am really excited about the play-offs," he told the club's official website. "For me it is fantastic. Watching Blackpool do it two years ago was fantastic, but to actually be involved is probably the highlight of my career.

"There are some big clubs in there, and we have struggled against the likes of Birmingham and West Ham.

"Cardiff are a good side and Middlesbrough could sneak in there ahead of Cardiff, so we have got to be on our toes and be ready to beat whoever we face."
