If we do qualify, get someone near Benidorm please

I haven't been following La Liga this year, are Atlético Benidorm still in with a chance of qualifying for Europe?

If it’s Conference - then it could be literally anyone.

Without a massive meltdown - we are going to be in Europe next season.
If we are.   It’s gonna be a massive Villa away party.  We are talking thousands of us.
Leeds will take more even if they are not in European competitions

But still not as many as Blose brought to Bruges. :(

If we are in Europe it will be interesting to see what our away support is like. Apart from the odd game our away numbers have generally been poor to average over the years so with the new levels of demand will the numbers increase a lot.

I'm being picky and stating the obvious but I'd really prefer the Europa League.

Finishing 6th would qualify for that wouldn't it?

I would of course be fine with the Conference League.

Just checked out of interest and Rapid Vienna are currently in a Conference League qualification spot, so hopefully we avoid them like the bloody plague.

I'm not arsed, but I imagine the UEFA Cup would be best as far as signing players goes. Cos when we talk to them we'll be like "how do you fancy winning the UEFA Cup?" And they'll be like "wtf lol" and we'll be like "Unai Emery is our manager" and they'll be like "oh yeah, that's what Unai Emery does lol" and they'll sign for us.

Or something.

I'd quite like the Champions League!

I've never been to an away European game. I'll be doing my utmost to get to at least one, should we make it. And I want a weird one, one you have to hire a car because the airport's 200 miles away and the trains only run on Mondays, where I can turn up in a town and wonder how the place has a football team, never mind one that's qualified for Europe.

Or Barcelona. Whatever, I'm easy.

One or two of us on here said that we thought it was a season too early for Europe and I do still think that but I won't deny that I'm warming to the idea, especially being only 6 points off a Chumps League spot. It's all very exciting.

Have they? I thought we usually sold out away games.

Brighton are in a really good spot for a shot at Chumps league - that is amazing!  Let's hope all the focus is on them and we can sneak into 6th at least.

2024 Europa League Final is at Aviva Stadium in Dublin.  Just imagine that.
