[Football] If Palace can't play in the Europa League

[The Optimist]

I knew someone who told his wife he was just nipping down the shop for the paper and went on rugby tour for 4 days.

How did that go down when he got home? Or is there a reason you knew him?

It’s going to happen surely

It was a couple of years before I started playing at this club, so I’ve just gone into my ex-players’ WhatsApp group to verify and get details of the story. The bloke in question was a mate of a player who decided to come along just for the boozing. I asked what happened to him on his return, but he hasn’t been seen since. The rugby-playing mate who he came along with reckons his wife did a Fred West on him.

I think this one is a bit more clear-cut in that the same company has large holdings (80%ish) in both affected clubs.

So if we play 13 players against them and not 20 it's ok?
It's ok we will negotiate with the ref and adhere to the rules after half time

BEN!

BEN!

Ben, do you have an update for us?

Ben, think you haven’t looked at the detail.

Rather amusing that Drogheada’s owners brought Silkeborg after they’d won the Irish FA Cup, that is Palace levels of bad planning.

Would also be a different scenario to palaces

Which I guess will be the explanation if Palace are allowed to play

 

[Greenbag50]

Surely the only wriggle room they have is that they’ll claim Textor Does not have controlling voting rights….
As said before…. How can you not and have a massive minority share….
Anyway, I’m looking forward to taking my place in the safe standing area next season…..
Sorry thread derailed

I'm pretty sure we confirmed European football later than they did. We qualified for EL on the last game of the season. They had at least 2 weeks after that. We followed the rules, they got cocky.

How on earth can you obviously know the rules about multi club ownership but basically think to yourself ah fk it we're never going to win fk all so who cares?

It astounds me that these super rich people haven't a ounce of common sense and I suppose just think they'll get away with it or sell their Women's team to themselves for 200 million quid.

I actually think Palace should be allowed to play as they beat a team in the final that should of been lobbed out the league last season for a multitude of law breaking ,but if i was to guess their fate right now I'd say they're now screwed.

It's a real howler.

Can’t spell “Drogheda” without “dog”, which is a domesticated wolf

It’s written in the stars!

Imagine a Wolves fan discovering this thread for a casual (!) read without any of the original context of how their club started getting mentioned.

 

[Stato]

Of course we all know nothing will come of this, but it's so much fun watching them lose their minds over nothing. Someone now seems to be theorising that Chelsea may have fixed the results on the final day of the French League to ensure that they and not Strasbourg qualified for the Europa league (which they're not in. They're in the ECL).

Palace potentially denied entry to Europa League?

Well i went to the 'font of all knowledge' - ChatGPT: Should Crystal palace be allowwd to compete in the Europa league? ChatGPT said: Crystal Palace winning the FA Cup on May 17, 2025, officially earned them a spot in the 2025–26 Europa League group stage...

Whilst this theory is obviously completely sane and utterly reasonable, it does overlook that, even Chelsea aren't incompetent enough not to have realised the potential risk and taken action. They had actually been talking to Uefa since January about a blind trust model for Strasbourg that was sufficient to the requirements should it be needed.

Chelsea & Strasbourg prepare for Uefa multi-club rule changes if both qualify for same competition

Chelsea make plans to be compliant with Uefa regulations after Strasbourg's surprise challenge to qualify for the Champions League.

Yes, this is what I want to know? Is it some sort of joke we’ve missed?

It is certainly no joke for Wolves fans.

They're not

Take a look at Triggaaar's post on page 78. He used them as an example, hilarity ensued.
