Trophy-winning side expelled from European competition for 2025-26
A team who secured a trophy to help them qualify for European competition next season have been barred from competing after having an appeal rejected.
Not sure how this will affect things. Feel bad for them, but obviously hoping it doesn't set a precedent.

the article really reads like it could be about us... it's as if to say what this club got expelled for, we are the same..

What still hasn't been answered by anybody is why Lyon get to keep the place over us?
Drogheda, who won their spot in the Conference league by winning Ireland's equivalent to the FA Cup, the FAI Cup were removed from the competition because their sister club in Denmark Silkeborg finished in SEVENTH place, thereby entering a relegation play-off mini league which they were the "Champions" of.
I cannot understand.

A very good point. There needs to be some sort of statement from UEFA prior to the draw, you would think.

Crimey. Didn't realise that. Why has it not been sorted and a statement been made already!? What crazy days we live in.
He's been trying to do that for 2 years already. He clearly wants an amount that buyers consider too high so unless there is pressure on him to lower his price I doubt he will.
Apparently Harris and Blitzer offered to buy him out so they can just wait and see if he folds or sticks.
It is more likely that the UEFA issue will be resolved before he sells his shares. Hopefully in our favour.

its only the qualifying rounds that are drawn today
the full draw is on August 29th
the full draw is on August 29th
The Irish premier league finishes on Nov 1st!, Drogheda are currently 3rd, it makes no sense at all

so still another week , or two, before Palace find out UEFA's decision. That's more delay to Palace and their players deciding what to do in the transfer market.

The decision was based on their finish in last season's competition in which they finished 9th. It doesn't matter that you've won the domestic cup as both Drogheda and we have done - it's solely about league position.
It is a nail biter, and will be it seems until the end of the month. That in its self may be our biggest reason to hope because Parish, and Textor have laid out their position to UEFA, we know that much. UEFA have given us until the end of the month to comply. My hope is that both sides know how to get over the problem, otherwise why have a period to comply if it was never possible in the first place?

I'm starting to over think things now, but if we have until the end of the month to comply, then why was Textor's initial offer made two weeks ago now, to place his shares into a Blind Trust, rejected ? I realise there was a deadline for doing so long gone now, but are UEFA giving us time to comply or needing more time for Palace to prove their case ?
it's actually very easy to understand, it's based on the final league position. We finished 12th, Lyon 6th.
We can disagree with the rule e.g. should a cup not trump the league postion but the rules are clear.

I know it's only 'football insider' but it's the quote " decisive influence" that is the key(imho)

I think UEFA have said it's too late for a Blind Trust solution, and to go away and find another way.
It's only a guess though.

Yes, the FA Cup is a major trophy win. Finishing 6th isn't plus the French play 4 games less too (and it's an inferior league). If they say no then it should be appealed and even offered that we play Lyon in a one game to decide
