History repeating itself?

Anyone else noticed the similarities between this season and 2006-7 season?After being on the edge of relegation places at the end of september,Both Us and Blackpool went on a very good run and chased a play-off place,We went on a run and won 5 and drew 2 in the league(unbeaten in 12 games all competitions) and laid just 2pts behind Blackpool who themselves had been on a very similar good run and where in the sixth play-off spot.next up Blackpool away and Blackpool came out on top beating us 3-1.Then we slowly dropped off after that and finished the season in 11th while Blackpool went on to the play-offs with Forest losing out to Yeovil in the play-off semi's and Blackpool beating Oldham before winning promotion by beating Yeovil in the final.The following season we won promotion through the play-offs.
This season after a slow start and on the edge of relegation for a while both us and Blackpool had a good run in the championship at one point flirting with the play-offs we then played Blackpool away and lost with us slowly dropping off eventually and finishing 12th and Blackpool going on to the play-offs.Now they have beaten Forest (who coincidentally lost in the 06/07 league one play-offs semi's aswell too) to reach the final.
To Me it looks like we are very similar to Blackpool and make good progress on a very low budget and are very well run clubs but we are just 12 months behind them in our progress,apart from following their promotion we managed to stay up on our first season and then managed to stay up again and have a decent final league position with the additions of loanees(like blackpool) to the squad to help cope with a low wage bill.Does that mean if Blackpool win the play-off final we will win the Play-offs next season then?
