    77-78.

    Those were the days, long hot summers.

    Just prevented Liverpool winning the Treble.
    Still kind kind of supported City too! Innocent times.

    Why would he when what I posted was absolutely crystal clear? I never mentioned the league.

    Then again, it's the Roofie so **** knows.

    Nice ... European qualification is not high on my agenda , only staying out of relegation .The final is MASSIVE then . So how does that work , if you win , does an English team get bumped or would you be another team ?

    No, the Prem would have five representatives.
    Spain did this season with Sevilla winning the EL. I think, can't think who was 4th in La Liga last year!

    IF we got fourth AND won the EL fifth place would not get CL though.

    Turns out it was Villareal.

    Who knew? I didn't. Did they even get through the qualifying round?

    Wouldn't know , don't really follow Champions League or Europa .... well , except when we won the League Cup with Laudrup , then Europa was the biggest thing to me since the invention of toast .

    ...as long as you don't embarrass English football like happened last season you'll do for me ...thank Christ Leicester City put that particular humiliation to bed by showing Sevilla that not every English club will drop their proverbial pants and take it up the gaping arse crack eh? ... :)

    He's not talking about the UEFA Cup in that second clip... <whistle>

  14. Spurs - for finishing 2nd reaching another historic milestone in our Prem history
    Leicester - for reaching the quarter finals of the CL, being (in Euro terms, little better than Brentwood Town)
    Arsenal - but only if they win the FA Cup and finish top 4
    Chelsea - for winning the Prem title

    The reason why I have denigrated Chelsea's achievement to 4th best is because (a) they did not play in Europe (not having been good enough to qualify), and did not have the distraction of Euro footy, like we did, and (b) the position they finished last season was not representative of their true quality - they basically downed tools in order to sack-off their manager in a craven and cowardly manner.

    Chelsea for winning a trophy - the PL
    Arsenal for winning a trophy - the FA Cup (#icandreambutitwonthappen)
    United for winning a trophy - the Europa League/Milk Cup

    honourable mentions -
    Leicester for doing better than any other PL team in CL
    Sours for playing great football and finishing above Arsenal for the first time in 22 years

    what if Arsenal fail to win the FA Cup and finishes outside the top 4?

    Would you say that, say, West Ham has had a better season than you, for avoiding relegation?

    I probably would.

    I think we're all conveniently forgetting that Arsenal were humped out of Europe on the back of the most embarrassing aggregate score the competition has yet witnessed.

    If the gunners consider this a successful season in the face of this catastrophe it is clear to see why they have fallen so far so quickly

    Indeed beaten by the mighty Bayern one of the top three clubs in Europe. Spurs however contrived to be knocked out of the group stages (easiest group) because the manager was saving players for the Chelsea game at the bridge. Then were knocked out of the Uropey cup by the mighty Gent who are plumbers and postmen. This is far more embarrassing hiag. <ok>
