Ian believes that the Seasiders relish the chance of knocking for six Birmingham's unbeaten home record on Hogmanay.
The home team have yet to lose in ten games at St Andrew's and also have two games in hand on their promotion rivals.
Following our Boxing Day win at Barnsley, he says - "This Blackpool team goes out to break records - we did it at Southampton and we've broken a few home records in the past. Hopefully we can do the same at Birmingham".
The fixture against the Blues is one of two in the space of two days as we welcome Middlesbrough on Monday, (KO 1500 hrs) and this is a good test for us, and Evo hopes the momentum will see us overcome both teams.
Two players that anticipate starting in both games are 'keeper Mark Howard and winger Matty Phillips, both of whom excelled against Barnsley.

Interesting they chose Evo to do this bit, hope he stays committed but doesn't get another card.
2 wins and I think we'll be claiming our playoff spot. What is so great this time round is that we don't have to fear anyone, we can beat anyone ( and lose to anyone as well, before anyone claims we're billy big boots), with the teams we have NOW. The difference from last year at this time is the strength in depth, I guess we now have at least 20 players vying for the first team, last year we had about 13 fit! Of course, we don't have CA's magic, but everything else is developing again.

i do believe we could start a good run now if we could get 6 points from the 2 games that would be fantastic then i think we would truly start to fly, fingers crossed.
