Hartlepool United striker Joel Porter sees no reason why Danny Wilson's side cannot clinch a top-six place in League One this season.
In 2005, Pools were eight minutes away from winning a place in the Championship, before eventually losing the League One play-off final to Sheffield Wednesday and Porter hopes to go one better this term.
The Australian told the Hartlepool Mail: "We've got our own views of where we want to finish and that's definitely in the top six.
"I think if we can put in the commitment and hard work that we've shown in pre-season into the league games and the closing down that we've been working on, then it's just about taking our chances and keeping clean sheets.
"We've got the players and the capabilities to do that."
