Its a hard one because none of the teams chasing it seem to want it as were all as bad as each other. Like Letters, it would not be bad if we were in the Europa league next season tbh, at least we play some decent footie i guess.

Isn't it possible we'll treat the Europa League with disdain with a view to try and 'focus' on getting fourth place?

It's what Spurs have done so yeah, probably.

When RvP goes (and he'd be stupid not to, tbh, unless we show some actual ambition in the summer and convince him we can turn things around and start heading in the right direction again) we'll be in mid-table. He's the only thing keeping us in the hunt for 4th right now.

Maybe we need to finish lower for a season. Maybe it's jolt the powers that be into realising we can't keep replacing quality players with mediocre ones and keep competing.

We keep hoping for these 'blessings in disguise' but nothing - absolutely nothing prompts a reaction from either the Manager or the Board.

The glamour ties used to be enjoyable! Hell, just last season. The quality of midfield being ripped to shreds has cost us that pleasure of competing though. So yeah...from a fan's perspective there wouldn't be much to shout about if the trend continued.

Most probs, put should we not try to get back in the cl if we go out of it or just settle for the europa for a few seasons. I think we play the cc team in the early rounds anyway.
