      It’s the Europa conference for us: probably at best.
      Basically the intertoto cup back.



      More like the Cup Winners Cup!!

      Are they putting the domestic cup winners direct into that one? I've read about the format somewhere but I'll have to find the rules I guess.

      Or we could just win five in a row and finish 4th. That would be OK too.

      No chance we finish top 4...

      And to qualify for this Europa conference, it’s basically either the league cup winners or the team that finishes lowest in the European qualifications positions in the league.
      Because Man City won league cup, it means top 7 qualify for Europe with 7th going into the conference.

      It’s basically a competition for dross.

      Dropping 4 points against Leeds and Newcastle was what did it.  Chelsea have only won two out of the last 5 in the Premier League.  Can't say they didn't show us an open door.

      I like the prospect of EL: Jürgen can basically rotate, so we can focus 100% on PL and FA-Cup.

      Good opportunity for the kids though.

      Europa League ended up being a platform for Greenwood and Rashford at United and also Saka and Smith-Rowe at Arsenal.

      Got to try and take the positives from it!

      They bottled this season big time and left many depressed, including myself.

      Yes we've had a crap season. Not the first definitely won't be the last. I've gone through many a season as disappointed as this one.

      Bitching and moaning won't make a blind bit of difference.

      We'll bounce back like we always do.

      It's been sh*te this season no doubt, anything that could've gone wrong has we've covered all the reasons but two CL finals and 97 and 98 pts in the last 3 years and more importantly ending our 30yr wait for the league title takes the edge off for me.
      It's been depressing viewing but that league title wait especially after that 13/14 season really really got me down and Jürgen changed that.
      I was hoping to miss out on Europe completely last week after blowing 4th but the realisation that we might end up in the Conference is a touch embarrassing so Europa Lg we'll have to aim for.
      It'll be interesting to see what we do in the summer transfer wise but we'll start again all level and go again, I'm looking forward to it.

      They because I blame the players.

      All you lot do is cry when I speak on how disappointing THEY have been this season.

      When I see players bottling and massively under performing I see them as nothing less than employees cashing cheques. I no longer describe them as "we".

      WE would fight tooth and nail week in week out

      WE would give our blood sweat and tears and that's just West Brom away.

      WE wouldn't have bottled it and become the laughing stock of the Premier League!

      The owners are THEY too. Or should they all be called "we"?

      Not the one we want I understand, but depending on results Sunday the difference between 4th and 7th in the Premier League after 34 of 38 matches could be 4 points. 4.

      Well why don't you just F**k OFF then pal, if you don't like what your seeing go pretend to support someone else, cos you sure as F**k don't support us,

      Your one of those plastic glory hunting F**k pigs that jump on the winning bandwagon but when it turns to sh*te you get your big sh*t stirring spoon out and do nothing but whinge and f***in moan,

      Bill Shankly,  do you know who he is ?

      He said that if you can't support us when we lose, don't support us when we win,

      and that is you, that is exactly what you are, a plastic glory hunting w*nk stain on society,  you probably got no friends either,  Woodison is the perfect place for you, there you will find your utopia,  and that is where you belong, in amongst all the whinging moaning bitter blues, where they have a sh*te season every season,  you will fit right in.!!

      F**k Off,  you hang around here like a bad smell,  nobody likes you, nobody wants you, getting the message yet ?

      Your opinion is w*nk, hence the so called abuse you say you get, has it ever occurred to you that you are so ignorant of what this club is about that your opinion sticks in the throat of fans that have supported this club through thick & thin and have perhaps witnessed season's worse than this one,

      It obviously hasn't because you don't and never will understand the ups & downs this club has endured for 129 years, it goes without saying that this season has been majorly disappointing but they're are genuine reasons for that, but all you can do is stick the f***in knife in instead of actually supporting, and  that is what you don't get, and others of your ilk, 
      As long as you keep up your bullshit opinions so too will the abuse you will get, so if indeed you are a genuine fan, then either get behind the team or F**k Off,  it's a simple equation.
