Are Swansea allowed in Europe?

The last time  I checked Swansea was in Europe!

Last time I  checked Swansea were affiliated to the Welsh FA, and this is an English tournament.

They are in an english cup competition but yes they will be allowed in the europa league if they win as representatives of  england , uefa confirmed last week.

It'll be on in the pub where i am no doubt so i won't be too far away from a screen with it on. I'd rather not though.

You can always sit with your back to the action clamps, long as you dont spill your pint.

No, i`ll be contemplating fucking suicide.

News just in - it's been called off.  No-ones interested so it's not happening. Ever. 

[Whiney MacWhineface]

Objectively I'm thrilled by the prospect of this game, especially if we'd been knocked out in the 4th round. I'll be happy for either side should they win it.

Subjectively I'll be grinding my teeth. What an opportunity missed. You owe us.

It's a game of football. Nothing more, nothing less.

I definitely would have watched and had planned to with a few mates but I've been asked to work all day Sunday so unfortunately I'll have to give it a miss. I might record it and watch it when I get in but probably not.

It didnt feel that way about 10 Seconds after they scored at VP.

[martin o`who??]

Good luck Bradford.

[KRS]

I'd like Bradford to win, but no qualms with Swansea if they win the cup and get into Europe.

[cheltenhamlion]

Normally I would love a final between these two. But after getting so close then I don't think I can bring myself to do it.

Nope, going bowling with wife and kids.

Welsh Clubs in English leagues can qualify for UEFA competitions by winning English trophies but not by winning Welsh ones.

This must be a change in policy. Many years ago UEFA ruled against  English teams  getting into Europe by winning the Welsh cup.

Quiz question of the week. Which are the six Welsh teams playing in the English League system?
