How does the extra place get made up, or rather where does it come from in the event the winner is places 5th?Wouldn't make a difference. 5th can't qualify for CL via league position ever, only way is for 5th to win the CL or EL.
The only scenario where something crazy could happen would be United 3rd, Woolwich 4th, Chelsea or Spurs 5th, Chelsea or Spurs 6th, with Spurs winning the CL and Chelsea winning the EL. Then Woolwich would miss out on CL. But that's quite a stretch!
Comes from some kind of knock-on effect going way down the qualification rounds I thinkHow does the extra place get made up, or rather where does it come from in the event the winner is places 5th?

Presumably they’ll move the Bournemouth game
The previous Saturday hopefully.
I can't see a reason they couldn't move Bournemouth back to the Thursday. Sky and PL have been bending over backwards to help the Dippers - 2 Friday games before CL fixtures. Be nice if they helped us out a bit.
Pressure on the FA. The club needs to be assertive in demanding they help us out.
Dutch FA has postponed a whole round of Eredivisie to help Ajax out.
I think its really hard to compare players in different eras. Messi probably plays against better competition than Maradona didMaradona coming out of retirement???
There is a stronger argument that Messi is the best club player ever so okay but best player ever?
Not for me.

I haven’t noticed mush praise for city, most of the internet are ripping the shit out of them for being “CL Bottlers”Funnily enough, there has been far more praise for Citeh than us. Quite strange actually.
