Hi,

If the Mancs draw on Sunday and we win, then we get second. Wouldn't

a cracking end of season!

Remind me : what do we get (other than the cup) when we win on the
13th? By
that, what are we automatically entitled to enter for in Europe?

There is a potential spanner in the works though. If Arsenal finish
outside the top 4 but win the ECL then they will be automatically
entered into next years ECL as #1 seeds. They will not have to qualify.
The next automatic spot would then go to Chelsea as they are EPL
champions. Clubs in 2nd and 3rd would then be entered into the 3rd
round qualification.



Have you got a link for that as I'm sure I read a story about Celtic
supporting Barca as it's their automatic place Arsenal would take (with
the worse record in the CL) leaving Celtic to enter the qualifiers. i.e.
2nd in the EPL stills gets you straight into the CL.

No link; it was something that occured to me last night. Hope your
version is accurate and Liverpool can grab the second spot. The automatic
spot would taste so much sweeter!

The Premiership get 2 automatic places in the CL league stage. The Cup
Holders also get a place. When the cup holder occupies another automatic
place, that frees up a further place for the next country down the list (in
this case Scotland).

So if the Arse win it, The Premiership would have 3 places straight into the
league phase (including Arsenal).
