Colin Doyle eager to maintain momentum

Birmingham City keeper Colin Doyle has said that his side must maintain their momentum ahead of the first leg of their Championship play-off semi-final.

The Blues, who sealed their fourth-place finish with a win over Reading at the weekend, travel to Bloomfield Road tonight to face Blackpool with the intention of putting one foot in the final.

"We're delighted," he told the club's official website. "The lads are buzzing and we've just got to push on now.

"It was good to beat Reading and finish fourth. We can take that momentum into the Blackpool game and do a job.

"It's going to be tough but the lads have got to go in with no fear and relish it."

Birmingham host Blackpool at St. Andrews in the return leg next week.
