The way he's used Lambert this season is nothing short of a disgrace. We just need to make sure we finish 5th or 6th, sod sitting through the final supporting Arsenal.

Lets B Avenue Posted 19 April, 2015 Share Posted 19 April, 2015 How on earth anyone is torn on something like is baffling the hell out of me. European football would be something to look forward to all summer, a genuine achievement and a step forward for the club. And you're "torn" about preferring to have a two minute chortle at the manager and players of another club who have nothing to do with us? I'd happily see Liverpool win the cup 10 - nil if it got us what we want. Well I've spent the entire afternoon "supporting" Liverpool as I wish to go travel to lots of European away trips next year, (it was better than listening to Hampshire's latest batting collapse) and I have come to the inescapable conclusion, that whatever I wished for, had no bearing whatsoever on the final outcome. I will now open a bottle and pi ss myself stupid at Lovren and Smugface's sorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 19 April, 2015 Share Posted 19 April, 2015 I seem to remember a few years ago Fulham were top of the fair play league and must have decided they didn't want to play in Europe as they kicked the sh*t out of the other team on the last day of the season.

Micky Posted 19 April, 2015 Share Posted 19 April, 2015 So does this mean that we are not going to be in the champions league or the Europa league? I can see villa winning the FA Cup, arguably meaning they will have had a better season than us. Spurs winning 3 - 1 as well. Think things are starting to peter out somewhat.

Tom & Gerry Posted 19 April, 2015 Share Posted 19 April, 2015 Or how about the old fashioned idea that we win a trophy and then go in to Europe. Winning something seems to be a concept people have difficulty grasping probably due to only winning one trophy in our entire history. That would be a better way to grow the club and it would be good for the fans and some of us would then be less concerned with the consequences. If the Europa league was so good for Swansea and Everton how on earth are we 7th without ever being in it. Of course I would like to see us play the teams you mention but we would need to get past an awful lot of dross to play them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to win something too, but I still believe a certain MP blew our best chance of a final last season. Finishing in a European place is kind of like reaching a final for a club like us. We will hopefully have a decent run in a cup within the next season or so, but I'd say finishing in a European place via a league position is going to offer the club a lot more growth, as opposed to winning a cup and finishing in the bottom half - or being relegated.

The UEFA Cup predominantly existed for English clubs to qualify for Europe without actually winning anything. Champions went into the European Cup, FA Cup winners into the Cup Winners Cup. It's hardly a new phenomenon that winning nothing qualified you for Europe. Same for the Champions League these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Who? Posted 19 April, 2015 Share Posted 19 April, 2015 Finishing 7th and relying on arsenal to win a cup or being remembered for coming 6th and doing it our way. Either, but 6th would be better, as there will not be a qualifying game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
