Chelsea have a sponsor on their shirts 🤔, the cynic in me thinks they’ve just signed a billion pound deal with C-helsea Holdings which will allow them to spend 250m on a few more midfielders.

Now that Chelsea have won, they can't finish below 7th.

Which means officially there will be no "extra" European spot if they win the Conference League.

So people can stop asking about it.

I think that’s curtains for us, and to add insult to injury when we get beat off Palace tomorrow I’ll be walking the banned tightrope on here 🙃, I’ve enjoyed my time on NSC.
Have you run your players into the ground - I note you didn’t really sign anyone in January - or has Nuno been found out by the rest of the league after an excellent first half of the season?

Possibly a mixture of both, my comment was more directed at the fact Liverpool tossed the game off with all the changes, i was being very bitter, playing the victim, but looking at their team yesterday with Sammy Lee in nets and Jimmy Tarbuck left back it was only going one way.

It could be argued that so many changes calls into question the integrity of the league, it could also be argued that I’m acting like a spoilt eight year old 🤨, now pull my finger.

We would feel exactly the same with such a late fall off. We are already a little pissed how we have fallen away since we lost to you in the Cup, by a very very fine margin :shrug:

It’s the hope that appears to have killed both clubs, BUT it’s not over until it’s over. Relying on other clubs is a bit desperate but all fans do it when things are going wrong.

1 more win guarantees European football though!.
Tonight would be ideal.

Desperate straw clutcher here - but with Newcastle winning the League Cup (which is a qualifier for the Conference League??) will that create another Conference place if Newcastle qualify for the CL - or even the Europa?

It already has/will

Top 5 UCL
6th Europa League
FA CUP WINNER Europa League
League Cup winner Conference League

We need the top 6 to include Newcastle and the FA CUP winner to stand a chance of 8th place being the Conference league place.

There can only ever be one Conference place.
