We only need a point against Brighton to have European football providing we win this now v Liverpool.

If it's up for grabs for all 3 sides come the final day then i'm quietly confident of one thing. Brighton will be a lot more worried about playing us than we'll be about playing them.

As a couple of guys have posted we can’t rule out Brentford, they’ve suddenly crept up.
So it’s up from grabs for 4

Key thing for us though is it’s in our hands now and we aren’t relying on other results.  A win and we will be playing European football next season.

Slight tongue in cheek but it does annoy me that people post during matches assuming we will win. Especially when we are away at Anfield. It was such an asinine point too.

Fair dos. Will be nice next year when we all assume we will win though!

Fucking Leeds, they're all but gone so can't see them rousing themselves for Spurs.

Well Brighton have guaranteed Europa League now, so hopefully they’ll be knackered and unmotivated against us.

Where is the Conference final year?

This year it’s in Prague in a woefully under capacity stadium for a European final. Next year it’s at the Aviva in Dublin.

They've got a few first teamers who are expected to be moving on for big money. Will they want to risk their fitness (and the money) against us?

Villa Park will be rocking next week. I'm really excited at the prospect of being in this competition, so let's hope the boys get the job done.

Noticed Vitoria Guimaraes are in a Conference League placing also, wasn't there a rule saying two clubs with the same owner can't enter the same European competition or did I imagine that?
