Only 5 teams from one country can enter the champions league, so 4th place would miss out if City and Liverpool won their respective European trophies and neither qualified in top four of EPL.

And good news if you're a fan of the Premier league is that because of the poor performance of Italian teams in Europe this season, the co-efficient has meant that 4 English clubs will continue to qualify for the Champion's league for next 2 years.

Yes they did, they just failed to make it out of the qualifying round.


Hahahahahahahaha!

The year Liverpool won it UEFA made a special exception to allow Liverpool to defend the title even though they'd finished 5th. I think it was a one off.

Some interesting fixtures this Saturday. Arsenal visit Everton who, though brittle at the back should be on a high after FA cup victory over Chelsea.

I don't think Arsenal can afford to drop any points in this one.

Leicester face a tricky tie at Palace, the only team in England who have not won a league match this year, so I believe. I think that could change as they are also on a high after FA cup victory.

Tottenham face an inform Bournemouth.

An interesting stat:

Leicester gained 20 points from the teams they play in their remaining fixtures.

Spurs gained 10 from the teams they have to play in the run in.

I think Palace are due a win. Having said that the number of times I've predicted a Leicester loss this season hasn't helped my Predictor scores one iota but I've gone 2-1 Palace. Probably the kiss of death for them.


Spurs have by far the tougher run in and being five points behind Leicester is a very tough ask. Obviously I want Spurs to win the title but if Leicester do pull it off it will surely go down in history as one of the greatest achievements in football league history.

That match was a tribute to the influence of Victor Wanyama who came on at half time. Apparently Liverpool were controlling the midfield first half.

    • It took the Tories 14 years to dig that 20bn blackhole. It's taken Labour 14 months to double it.  You cant get rid of Reeves though because the next person will actually be totally incompetent. There are no MPs in Labour capable of performing better than the current shower.
    • Thanks P. That sounds like a bargain compared to other horror stories I've heard! 
    • DD, "Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃" At least the economy and unemployment weren't in the mess they are now. What is it, give the public sector a whopping pay increase with no strings attached, double the black hole and then blame it on the last Govt. Give me strength. Rachel from accounts shouldn't be anywhere near the economy. The final straw was increasing employer NI contributions and look how that's worked out. Month on month both inflation and unemployment have risen. Won't be long before inflation and u/e are exceeding 5%, but guess what, They'll blame Sunak and go.  Lets have a snap election right NOW, then see how poorly Starmer, Reeves and Rainer do. They're already plotting to get rid of Starmer, and if you think its bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet. Oh and did I mention Starmer wanting to stop Freedom of Speech............................................Normal people can see right through what him and co are doing, great at spending other peoples money, him and co don't have = bankruptcy. We'll just repeat the economic collapse that happened in Greece and wasn't it in Italy as well?
    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?
