Palace potentially denied entry to Europa League?

'It becomes your life'.

Holmesdale fanatics 'moving nuclear submarines nearer UEFA'.

Get in.

Getting a nuclear submarine close to Switzerland 😀

Yes, but if Lyon are in the Europa League only from 9th July, why are Palace out from 17th May because of a deadline of 1st March. Different dates mean different outcomes.

Lyon were in Europa from the end of their season. Both Palace and Lyon were in until 9th July, when UEFA made their decision, then we were kicked out.

Yup, the 'Mail' are also reporting this( can't do link, paywall) "Error 404"

Just noticed, PatrickA has put it in the 'Travel Plans' thread

I wouldn’t read anything into that, just someone refusing to except the inevitable

Yeah expect the 'content' team just put it up. And then management told them to take it down

What a load of sh*te this whole thing has been. I think we should withdraw from the competition immediately on principle. We really have been stitched up on a grand scale. Why the f*ck couldn't CAS make their decision before the stupid conference draw!? We can all see how this one is going to play out now. C*NTS. Sorry for the rant. Like everyone else just very pissed off and tired of this nonsense.

I can think of fifteen million reasons why we should not withdraw.

I suspect it's so that someone oblivious to the appeal doesn't start asking the wife for permission to go on a jolly.

Indeed, it’s definitely not because they’re expecting the decision to be overturned.

Disagree, a bit. Lyon may think they qualified on the last day of the season but at that point they were provisionally relegated to Ligue 2; a fact confirmed in June by the French FA. It was only a successful appeal on 9th July that reinstated them to Ligue 1 (and consequently Europa League qualification). We qualified for the Europa League before Lyon yet somehow we get shafted. Hence the UEFA Mafia slant by the fans.

Lyon were "always" Ligue 1 and qualifiers based on league position. The appeal meant their relegation never happened.

 

[silvertop]

Nothing to do with who qualified first. The decision was made on the finishing league positions in their respective leagues, totally ignoring the fact that we qualified via a cup competition.

Yes, it is absurd that a competition that morphed out of the cup winners cup gives priority where there is perceived conflict based on league position and not... err... winning the domestic cup.

One of the many points that cannot be a ground for an appeal but which can "indirectly" inform the CAS decision.

That made the papers

We already wasted 15mil on Franca so I would love to see us boycott the conference league.

Just broken in the Mail.
Sadly I can't access these not so secret plans, so will have to rely on the tech savvy teenagers out there.

Yes, they were also talking about that on Talksport this morning during the White & Jordan slot (although White wasn’t on air and it was a replacement presenter).
