I really want a win for us in the cup,but if we do not pull it of,what is the position as regards European qualification if City are all ready in by position of high league position,do we then qualify as FACup runners up.Just thinking it might help us keep the team together for next season?
 
No
Runners up of the FA Cup where the winner has already qualified for Europe do not get that allocated Europa Cup place

We need to win it

Or winning the last four league games might do it! Unlikely though.

Amusingly if we do win it then the battle for 8th and a potential Conference League place will not matter as 'only' the top seven will qualify for Europe. That might upset our friends on the South Coast and I don't mean Bournemouth.

This rule came in after Millwall didn't play a PL team until the FA cup final and then didn't have a shot on goal yet qualified for Europe.
