We have 19 rivals in the Premier League. I was at the game that caused the alledged problem, but time and time changes everything in my opinion. There is noreason to hold a grudge for so long.....Vennables has passed and who remembers the team from that fateful day ?
I am literally lost for words right now, I don't even have the mental strength to even contemplate reading that again!

As I understand it if Chelsea win the Conference League and fail to qualify for the Champions League then there would be an extra Europa League spot and no Conference League spot. That would mean 6th and 7th plus the FA Cup winners would get Europa League football next season.

If Chelsea win the conference and qualify for the Champions League then 6th and the FA Cup winners get Europa League and 7th gets Conference League.

There appears to be some weird anomaly with the Conference League that I don’t quite understand as it doesn’t apply to the winners of Europa League or Champions League if they also qualify through the league.
Given the current drought, we're short of straw to cling on to, get over it, our home form against the now bottom three cost us .

I've managed to avoid it completely today and remain in denial. Dundee Utd beat Aberdeen earlier and I'm in Genoa and at they're home to Atalanta tonight. A home win would be good for the late night atmosphere in the city. FA Cup final? Haven't got a clue.
Genoa. My favourite city in Europe. Love the place.
Have a great evening in the large meandering old town.

Because we sign players for the future and never see them in the Stripes.....loaned out straight away in the shop window to sell on......although they lost today, City brought on a 19 year old Argentinian player they signed las January and loaned back to the selling club until January......Barco is agreat example, outcast, sent off from pillar to post..............
100% this.
 






Hope all you anti-City dickheads on here who wanted this today are happy that you got what you wanted. A Palace win we will NEVER hear the end of, and one that ends our season. Neither club had ever won anything - until now.

Enjoy the summer, and watching THEM in Europe.
f***ing disgusting that. Don’t get it at all. All those saying to not get annoyed etc are clearly not that fussed jcl types etc. This hurts BIG TIME.

I believe there's 2 different points here.
Yes, off the pitch with our stadium, infrastructure and owner, we'd rather be us.
However, on the pitch Palace have got it over the line.
What's more important? There's an argument for both.

We've lost successive SFs and before that blew the Championship trophy in the last 3 games.
Eventually, given enough years, we'll win something.
But how many of us will be around to see it is another matter.
It's all about taking the chance when it's there.
All good and perfectly put....but I'd still rather be us, than them. Always.

apart from the outside chance of European qualification ?
Good point. I wasn't considering that. I just meant that, as awful as it is to witness today, it doesn't damage our prospects for the summer, next season or longer term. We've just got to do something even better.

What is that then? Win the league, not happening, break our transfer record again? sign a 17 year old wonderkid from Greece?

Face it we are at a crossroads.....
