The Anti-Football of Stoke has made the FA Cup Final after a 5-0 Victory.

 

Arsenal bottle it again, on the verge of another trophies season.

 

Football is funny

don't think so

 

city will qualify as the fa cup winners, which opens up another place in the league

I get you now

 

Three Europa places, Brum have one, FA Cup have the other, then it's league. The FAC runner up gets the call over next best placed league finish if the winner comes in 5th. City would have to finish 6th I think.

 

Scratch that. I dont think it's possible. FA Cup runners up get the place if the winners already qualify, if they dont qualify, then the 5th place team gets Europa as is.

Brum don't yet have one as they have to convince the FA/UEFA or some f***** that they're financially stable, otherwise they're out on their ear.

 

 

How come only 18 mo or so ago they were bragging about having 'loadsa money' and trying to buy Babel for 12m?

 

Good f***ing job we didn't sell in hindsight

Yer wha?

 

city win the cup and finish 5th means that the sixth place team will get the europa cup place (city will qualify as the fa cup winners)

Its confusing this one. Down to what has preference in terms of qualification, winning the FA or the league position.

 

If its winning the FA - if City win it and finish 5th, 6th place will get Europa.

If its the other way around, then Stoke will get the place

 

However, if it is the first way around then there's a serious issue as Stoke play Man City AFTER the FA Cup final.

Therefore you could get a case of Stoke losing on purpose in order to see Man City qualify for the CL and see them into the EL after City's FA Cup place gets handed to them.

 

Needs claification, this does.

 

Edit: we could actually be the in the same position as Stoke, in terms of leting Spurs beat us.

Its a bit of a s**** rule to be honest.

It should just go to the losing finalist if that event occurs

Someone on twitter reckons 6th will get Europa if Man City finish 4th, but not if they finish 5th

Odd

 

 

No, that's wrong.

 

If they finish outside of top 4 they would get their europa qualification as a result of winning the cup 1st, in which case the FA cup slot "goes" to them

 

If they finish in the top 4, the fa cup slot goes to stoke.

 

If you see what I mean

Apparently there's still some confusion to this. Iain Macintosh was talking about it on twitter today.

 

The FA told him one thing and the Premier League told him the complete opposite when he asked about it.
