Got a great feeling that we will finish it off at NLD this time
if we win our nex two and spurs lose to Liverpool then we will be 5 points ahead on the day of NLD. Spurs will be under immense pressure and hopefully that will play into our hands

Fuck me I’ve just realised I’ve made plans on the evening of the 12th May Jesus Christ
I was working but I agreed to get it changed
Is there still a scenario where 5th place also gives a CL spot?
Is that ever been a scenario?
Only way there is 5 teams in UCL is if WHU win Europa and finish outside the top 4
Oh I thought it happened once. Hmm my bad
It did the year Liverpool beat Milan. They finished 5th that season. Got in as defending champions.

That was the year that Liverpool and Chelsea were in the same group. Not sure if it’s even still possible for that to happen.
I do vaguely recall it happening, one season at least.
(edit @Stroller has it)
This never happened. They met in the SF.

2005? Think we were talking about a more recent Liverpool CL win?
That’s confused the fck outta me tbh.
In 04/05, I’m almost certain Chelsea and the Scouse Cunts met 5 times with the Scouse Cunts only winning once (ghost goal)

Oh, was it after the Mou/United EL win then?
Why are five English teams in the Champions League this season? (thesun.co.uk)
Well the more recent one is when they beat Spurs. The post I was responding to was the one that referred to when Pool beat Milan in 05 but finished behind us, United, Chelsea and Everton in the league and only got back in to the CL due to them changing the rules and giving the winners automatic re-entry, which is also why Pool ended up in the same group as Chelsea which usually doesn’t happen under regular qualification.

No you are right. Think we had the wrong one, now I see the season after United won the EL under Mourinho? (so for the 2017/18 season)
The group stage was 05/06

Getting a bit more worried about the Leeds game, I mean surely they’re too trash to cause us a big problem but them getting proper pulled back into the rele dog fight isn’t good for us.
Fucking hell the lengths people will go to try and be relevant on Twitter. So we just need those 9 results to play out exactly as outlined to get an unprecedented play off them. I hope he’s laid a fucking wad on it cos the odds must be about 3m/1.

I feel like it’s probably easier if you just worry about every game for the next month.
That’s my plan anyway
