I'd rather fuck Jennifer Lawrence, but hey.......
Again?
Doing this after every game and overreacting is ridiculous. Might as well check back once the competitions reach the semi final stage.
Germany have a couple of teams playing Thursday too so pretty much guaranteed to fall behind for now until all the English teams start playing in the next round.
I'm getting kinda bored with her now, she's too frigid. Couple more shags this weekend and you can have her, Paul.I'd rather fuck Jennifer Lawrence, but hey.......
So we have to support the Scum tomorrow?
Nah. Fuck them.
Imagine if we needed Woolwich to win CL for 5th to get CL.
I'd rather see us relegated.
Or finish 4th.

Inevitably Germany and Italy increasing points whilst England in 3rd do not as no PL clubs played
But they are optimistic about England getting a 5th place.
Germany looks like it is in a strong position, but England still has six teams active in the round of 16 and most of them are in the lower-tier competitions. The Premier League is more likely for the top two.

Freiburg (Bundesliga) drawn against West Ham in Europa will be an important couple of games.
Also Brighton up against Roma

Agree - sixth place is a dog shit sandwich either way which is the best we can hope for based on our lack of investment and decade long poor leadership
I can't say that I'm convinced PL gets that 5th place, when its predicated upon wins for Wham and Brighton (especially against a resurgent Roma).
At best I'd suggest its a very tight call.
But maybe things become clearer in a month when competitions are at a more final stage
So do you get the same amount of co-ef points for a win in the EL as you do in the CL?
Italy getting an extra CL spot whilst doing fuck all of note in the CL would be a massive fail and indictment of this process.
Not sure that’s correct at all. Last nights results were shit, but there is a lot of football still to be played.

What isn't correct?
He’s got us second. We are third.
They've just ordered it by the top 2%, the current points are the same.
Yeah pretty much, 2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw in each and then bonus points for the following
Champions League bonus points
4 - Group stage participation
5 - Round of 16
1 - QF, SF, final
Europa League bonus points
4 - Group winners
2 - Group runners-up
1 - Round of 16, QF, SF, final
Europa Conference League bonus points
2 - Group winners
1 - Group runners-up
1 - SF, final
Weirdly you could get the same number of points by finishing 3rd in your CL group and then winning the Europa League than by winning your CL group and then winning the CL. You can also get more points by finishing 2nd in your Europa League group and winning the extra 2 playoff round games than if you won your Europa League group.
Apparently they are changing the scoring system next season though...
Rewarding mediocrity. What a mess......
Here's a simple idea... Give an extra spot to whatever league generates the CL winner that season and drop all the bullshit.
