CL Footy secure for next season then...

[Morph]

It's a shame that this our best target at the moment but at least it's sorted out now, would like to see us stay 3rd, at least then we haven't regressed on last yrs position, although with a slightly lower points total.

[Finnish_Red]

Definitely no to the first question, not sure about the second.

Thought so, thanks.

[Finnish_Red]

We would go straight into the group stages

Sounds all good to me.

Fat Sam's boys lost as did the bitters. And we won.

Same for Arsenal as well, also guaranteed.

Therefore leaves 5 teams chasing 3 UEFA Cup slots:

5 Everton 35 15 54
6 Bolton 35 -3 54
7 Reading 35 6 51
8 Tottenham 34 -1 50
9 Portsmouth 34 5 49

That means both Bolton and Everton will be playing hard next weekend when they play Chelsea and Man U respectively - so they don't lose their UEFA Cup spots. I just hope Everton don't roll over like they usually do against the Scum.

The money involved will make them play thier ba lls off.If Boro can draw N`everton can beat them.

Reading have quietly gone about their business, not got half the press Sheff Utd, Watford (promoted sides from last season) Wigan, West Ham & Charlton have, yet are almost in Europe next year.

Can I just say a huge well done to Reading & Coppell.

Yes,go ahead.

Let's hope Plug is out against Milan and the Bitters. The Scum look so vulnerable at the back. Shame Big Dunc still is n't on their books. I was really hoping Cattermole was going to do Ronaldo good and proper today.

FWIW:

Given we've done everything else in a European Cup Final, how about we win it from 1-0 down with 10 men against Utd...one of our lads gets sent off for putting Ronaldo in hospital.

bluenoses get a big pay off from the Rooney transfer if the mancs win the league, just thought i'd throw that out there

Can hardly see that bieing part of the team brief though.

[Fowler_God]

Let's get to Athens.

Any kind of draw on Wednesday night would be fine by mine.

Any kind of score draw or better would do me. Couldnt take the agony like last time at anfield. I was nearly physically sick when i thought Gudjohson (sp?) had scored.

maybe not, but it's always there

[Kopite_Colin]

If we come home with a 1-1 or better I'll be happy.

[fah-q]

I think we should beat them eleventy - nil in the first leg.
