PRL Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 To be honest I think I’d be more frustrated with Spurs or Mancs winning Europa and parachuting into Champions League after season they have had. It doesn’t guarantee a turnaround next season by any means, but it gives them more of a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tisd09 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I was having this debate with a mate the other day, he was wondering why I didn't want an English club to win the CL. Now I wouldn't begrudge Villa so much as it would be a big fingers up at the elite clubs but I have no real like for any of the remaining CL clubs, Dortmund would probably be my number one pick from here. As mentioned in the other competitions with the remaining clubs I have no desire for them to win. I didn't mind West Ham taking the Conference a few years back.

NSG Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Yeah now 5th place issue is sorted, I’d love all the English teams to be unceremoniously dumped out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Apologies if already asked and answered, but if we finish 7th I’m assuming that’s conference league ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be Europa League if a team above us were to win the FA Cup - so given Villa would be likely above us in that scenario, we'd need the cup winners to be anyone but Palace for Europa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think that'll depend on who wins the FA Cup, so if the table stays as is if Forest Win the FA Cup, that Europa League spot will go into the League as they'd have qualified for the Champions League so it'd look like: 5th: Champions League 6th: Europa League 7th: Europa League 8th: Conference League But if Palace win the FA Cup it'll be: 5th: Champions League 6th: Europa League 7th: Conference League Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harveys Barn Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 It's a shame Forest have such a cruisy set of fixtures remaining. We'd catch them otherwise. It's going to be all about passing Chelsea and holding off Villa. Expect City to be fourth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be all about passing Chelsea and holding off Villa. Expect City to be fourth. I still think we might catch them tbh. It’s about 5 teams going for 3 places to get to the CL (most likely). Having said that, things can change. Edited April 9 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 what happens if manu or spuds win the EL? still top 5 places for CL or does it go down to 4? remember previously when a CL place got taken away from the league as a result of something like that. will it be a max of 5 from england?

But one of those "two European winners" would have to be winners of the CL, no? And for it, still, to be 7 they'd have to finish outside our top 5, no?

Coffee_Johnny Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 12 hours ago, Stifler said: As much as I’m glad they won because it confirms England’s 5th place, even though it was happening in anyway, I want them to lose. I want all the English teams to lose and go out. The Champions League I don’t want any other English team to win because of jealousy, the Europa League, or Conference League I’m less concerned about, but the clubs left are Man Utd, Spurs, and Chelsea, so fuck them. Is this bitterness because you have a MILF for a mam? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Hmm don’t really know what i want. I think some of my bitterness has gone now ive seen us win a cup. Part of me could enjoy Villa winning it, especially over Bayern. But then seeming them gloat to us would prob turn me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
