In a court of law, I would suggest this is compelling evidence that proves Palace should be in the Europa League next season. An 84 year old man who just wants to go to one European away game.
Case dismissed, M’Lud.

Had Man Utd finished 8th this would be all over the media with a very different spin on it.

And 1974. That should be enough to secure the spot.
Absolutely, for starters the papers will be wondering how they got 23 points by beating Villa. #corruption

Just to pick up on one of his points. It would have been nigh on impossible to predict that PSG would win the French cup. So yeah, hard to predict Lyon getting into Europe.

Probably expected Reims to score one on the break, then save a spot kick after the goalkeeper got away with handling outside his area. An entirely plausible outcome!
Not sure it was ever "gentle teasing" for the majority. It was jumped on pretty much as soon as they won the FA Cup. Probably as a way of dealing with the pain of them winning it. They are in clear breach of the rules and we are talking palace, of course the majority want it to happen.

If Wales are getting a place then surely Blue must be in with a shout?

Whilst I agree it will probably get sorted out, I am also wondering on what grounds? It seems unlikely that the Palace Pillock will be able to sell his shares in the next few weeks (given he has apparently been trying to sell them for a while). Any other solution surely makes the whole 1st March deadline meaningless in future seasons.
My feeling is that the longer it goes on, the more likely it is that Palace miss out.
FWIW the needle for me is moving from "there is no way they won't play in Europe next year' to 'although its unlikely, maybe just maybe they won't be allowed to play'.
It didn’t help Swindon in 1967 though

100% agree.
Which is why we need to get back on track and start posting twitter posts and links to other social media examples of palace fans shitting themselves and going into meltdown. Put the FUN back into the situation rather than repeating the same points over and over and over again.
I'll do my part by posting the thread from holmesdale.net
Palace potentially denied entry to Europa League?
This could be the most Palace thing ever. The Eagles’ FA Cup win should mean Europa League football — but multi-club ownership rules could block their place if Lyon qualify too. UEFA decision looms. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6365416/2025/05/21/palace-europa-league-textor-eagle-lyon
I haven't read it yet but there must surely be some great posts in there

A different kind of pasty
Whilst I have zero expectation of UEFA doing the right thing and booting Palace out, this whole debacle is rather deliciously funny.

It'll almost certainly get sorted in their favour, as most of us know.
However it is VERY funny, and has largely kept them off here for a few weeks. Weeks they would loved to have used to gloat.
Long may it continue.

Is ‘the most Palace thing’ the same as ‘Spursy’?
Basically pure incompetence….

Jesus what a load of BS.
No it wouldn’t. UEFA would already have kicked Palace out and replaced them by now.
