Europa League

Ron said it was time we won another trophy....with you there, RK.

 

Oh, of course. It's all so clear now. We've been wasting our time all season.

The pundits talk about our progress going under the radar. I think they're doing their level best to push us under it.

 

Go there for a weekend break, but not between June and the *** end of September when it will be blistering hot.

 

Here's who else is in. Worth a bookmark when things get complicated.

And our UEFA coefficient is 16.756, since you ask.

 

There's a Europa FC in Europa. Feels like a conflict of interest to me.

 

So, have I got this right? If ManU win the FA Cup it doesn't matter about the Bournemouth game because we'll still go straight through to the group stage?

 

Yes.

 

Thanks

 

That's why I corrected someone who thought they could now support Palace in the cup....sadly not. I want them to win the cup, so from a Europa POV we can forget all about the game yet to play. We can then support Bournemouth so that we keep 5th.

 

Feyenoord leaps out. Seen many of their fans visit st Mary's over the last couple of seasons.
Would be a special game

 

Yeah would be good to go back. Unfortunately we won't know much about who is in until that ridiculous Champions League-Europa booby prize play off.

 

Liverpool will get CL if they win the Europa...do they miss out or get back into the Europa if they lose?

 

They miss out....shame

 

If they lose they get no entry to euro.

 

I want them to lose for other reasons!

 

Come on Sevilla !

 

Is there a single Saints fan out there who over the next week doesn't want a hattrick of Bmouth, Sevilla, and Palace wins?

5th place and EL group stage for us. No trophy for Liverpool. No Europe for Liverpool. No trophy for Utd. EL qualifying for Utd. No Europe for West Ham and their taxpayer funder stadium.

 

Ah good, saved me from working it out for myself. I'm with you there st_brendy. If I had to settle for one of those it would be for Sevilla to win, just to see Dejan Lovren's disappointed face. And Klopp would have slightly less of a Klipp in his stride too.

 

At least the Bournemouth game is before the cup final. Hopefully I can get fully behind Palace by that point.

Qualifying is a pain, but to be honest I'd be happy for Palace if it made an inconvenience for us.
