summerof69 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Which other clubs have fan groups that do displays like wor flags? Liverpool, Palace? Noticed Watford and Leicester have displays too but don’t know whether or not they’re done by the clubs themselves rather than the fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Can 7th in the PL ever qualify for Europe? Now that FA Cup losers don't qualify for Europe, if CL teams win the cups and no English teams with the European cups, does the final spot drop down to 7th? Edit: 7th gets preference ahead of the losing finalists. More devaluation of the FA Cup then. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/47806720 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You shouldn't reward failure which it does with finalists. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Is finishing 7th not failure? A team that finishes 7th is more worthy of a european place imo considering it's over a 38 game season. I don't know of any other country that gave the runners up of their main cup competition a place in europe if the winner was already qualified.

David Edgar Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Would probs take a hit on our coefficient if we let the FA Cup runner up into Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know of any other country that gave the runners up of their main cup competition a place in europe if the winner was already qualified. 7th is less than 2/3rds of the way up the table, it's not a massive success. I'd rather the cup finalists get it not only for merit but also because it might mean we don't just see the same teams in Europe all the time,give some lower teams a shot at it.

morla84 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Although I think the place should go to the league, I dont agree with the rewarding failure argument. In the league you can lose a third of your games and still qualify. In the cup you would only be able to lose one out of at least 6 games - the final. I guess finishing in 7th place is like winning the second league (behind the big 6) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 When it was the old Cup Winner’s Cup the place went through the FA Cup even if they lost didn’t it? That’s how we played in it. I think it should revert back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 When was the last time we had two players in double figures in the league? just seen that Perez and Rondon both have more than 10 league goals each. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ritchie and Gayle in the Championship. Before that it was Ba and Cisse in 11/12 then Nolan and Carroll in 10/11. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 What’s the standard for determining who gets a CL winner’s medal? Everybody in the senior squad? Only players who made appearances? Does Karius get one this year even though he’s been on loan? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gottlob Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 What’s the standard for determining who gets a CL winner’s medal? Everybody in the senior squad? Only players who made appearances? Does Karius get one this year even though he’s been on loan? This article and others suggest that the winners and losers get forty medals each, to hand out to players and coaching staff at their discretion: http://www.espn.co.uk/football/uefa-champions-league/2/blog/post/3452273/could-philippe-coutinho-get-a-medal-if-liverpool-win-the-champions-league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 In terms of best right this very second then it'd be Hazard, Bernie Silva, N'Golo Kanté or Mbappé. Currently playing but most storied would be Pogba, Chiellini, Bonucci etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
