Will we qualify for the CL?

[algy]

Is it safe to rest players against Fulham to make sure they're all fit to face Forest and relegate Tottenham, yet? If there is going to be a sixth English Champions League team, would much rather it was Fulham than Chelsea or Brentford (or Forest, obvs).

My order of preference for European qualification, for the teams that might realistically do it, is:

1. Everton (cos I've a few Evertonian mates and they're alright)
2. Sunderland (fans seem sound enough, and I completed both the Villa and Sunderland in the same pack of Topps cards in the early 90s so consider them a lucky omen)
3. Fulham (the few Fulham fans I've met have been pleasant)
4. AFC Bournemouth (same as Fulham)
5. Brighton & Hove Albion (Don't really think about them ever other than when we play them)
6. Brentford (same as Brighton)
7. Liverpool (Enjoy them being relatively shit, but have Liverpool supporting mates who are sound [and actually from Liverpool])
8. Chelsea (as they're scum of the earth)

Preference for relegation is.

1. Spurs
2. Spurs
3. Spurs
4. Spurs

Surprised Leeds don’t sneak a place on that last list

[Ads]

Leeds must be a generational thing, as they're basically a second division club, with a cringey song about a cup they didn't win and about as successful as Huddersfield or the Albion, with a larger share of Stone Island, to me. They don't bother me in the least.

[Monty]

Yeah, genuinely couldn't give a fuck about Leeds.

[Brazilian Villain]

The only Leeds fans I know are all in their 50s and 60s, and are sound. For me, it's more interesting to have Leeds in the PL than the likes of Brighton, Bournemouth, and Brentford.

[Smirker]

The Leeds fans I've known personally have all been sound.

They don't seem to like Blues either.

I think we will beat Fulham at weekend to put it beyond the chasing pack. Fulham have increasingly less to play for and Marco Silva I think will be off elsewhere in the summer. We are creating loads of chances in recent games and it's the ideal game for us.

I'm very sorry, I'm going on Saturday and I have never seen us get so much as a point at Fulham in about 7 visits.  Last time I went was Gerrard's final game.

Probably our greatest ever result there don’t you think?

I'm going to be telling my kids about that result.

Matt Cooper and Luke Haines ? Fuxk 'em.

That Leeds equaliser was helpful, basically means a win completely eliminates any possibility of Bournemouth catching us.

I realise we’re very highly likely to make it, but until it’s mathematically done I’ll personally be mildly nervous. I think we’ll do it, I just want it rubber stamped.

[Brend'Watkins]

I’ll be a bit disappointed if we don’t make 3rd.

[Brazilian Villain]

I’ll be a bit disappointed if we don’t make 3rd.

It'd be nice, but the most critical fixture is Forest away. If we can get a positive result there, we should have a good end to the season.

That's where I am

[cdbearsfan]

I want it rubber-stamped by beating Tottenham.

Too fucking right.
