I’m still hoping Bilbao hammer them both.

You want spurs in the final?

Not want, but suspect it’s reasonably likely. As long as they lose I don’t really care.

Playing them 3 days before a final might well work to our advantage. Once there, I hope Bilbao stuff them.

Is it possible that finishing 7th could see us into the Conference League?

Yes, if Palace win the cup.

I stick with my previous position, if we win all 4 and don’t finish top 5 then fair play to whoever does.

Agree, we win all 4, just a bit of luck with other results, not asking for the complete melt down of Chelsea or Forest, Newcastle, but these sides are going to clash, it could be done even now, not out of this by a country mile, if Forest don't get a result vs Brentford, Man City stumble v Wolves, we beat Fulham that top 5 will look very different, even at this late stage. Newcastle at Brighton. it can still be done.

This weekend is massive, if these other top 7 sides blink then a couple have to still face each other, we are in the mix.

Is it ungrateful not to want Europe if it means Conference League?

I don't want Europe if it's not the Champions League. Regroup, and do better next season like Newcastle have.

We earned about £10m from the conference league last time. That's better than nothing. It also helps to maintain profile of being involved in Europe. Win it and we get Europa etc too.

It's not really a case of being grateful or ungrateful. My own view is that being in the Conference League next season would be a bad thing for us, we really don't need it, either as a competition in itself or to help our progression.

that was the plan last time which drained us on other fronts . 1615 KO's in Moldova  etc can FRO .

Because famously mid-week games against Bayern Munich, PSG, Juve etc have been at a much lower intensity.

I want Champions League, but wouldn’t mind Europa.

Winner of Europa gets in CL, with our manager’s record in that competition we’d fancy our chances…we all know what would happen next!!

I'd have fancied us to win it this year with the shite in it.
