Palace potentially denied entry to Europa League?

[Part Time James]

Prince William pulled his hair out over it.

I assumed he'd just watched a documentary about his uncle.

I know, I’m only joking really because I met some on holiday and they were brilliant, we had some good old footballing chats and blew a lot of smoke up eachothers backsides

What happens on holiday stays on holiday...

They're generally good lads who like a drink. And genuine supporters too.
Not sure about the smoke up the jacksie though. Is that what they call bum sucking cigarettes?

He saw him coming.

Well that's good news. So no matter what we would be in Europe.

oops......
Unfortunately not if you believe AI............

AI Overview

Global Football Holdings (GFH) is the name of an investment vehicle, specifically Global Football Partners, which is a part of FiveT Group. This investment group focuses on football-related investments, recognizing the potential value of such assets, especially in volatile market conditions. One example of GFH's involvement in football is their majority ownership stake (50.1%) in the Danish club Brøndby IF.


That is Blitzer's vehicle.
Unfortunately Bronby would take priority over us as they ended up higher in their league.

Not looking too promising after all.

I’m not sure that is correct. Firstly I believe winning the FA Cup is considered more prestigious than where Brondby finished in the Danish league. A,so was of the opinion that Blitzers shareholding is under the threshold but, of course, may be wrong and this is the corrupt UEFA we are talking about

What a stitch up and in full view of the football world!

The fat Greek and Textor have manipulated more dubious deals between their respective MCO’s that warrants further investigation.

Textor somewhere anchored off the Greek islands celebrating a great result, whilst enjoying the free case of vintage red wine provided from UEFA.

Who knows?
According to Google he has ownership or "significant interest" in G.D.Estoril (Portugal), AD Alcorcon (Spain), SK Beveren (Belgium), ADO Den Haag (Netherlands) and FC Augsburg as well as us and Brondby.

Agreed - the whole thing stinks..!!

Lyon £0.5Bn in debt, insufficient income / cash flow to run the club, registering and paying players through the Lyon books for another club (Botafogo), Textor resigns due to mis-management of finances, Forest buying players on the cheap from Lyon and Botofogo so that Lyon can magically come up with the £170M they needed to find to avoid relegation to League 2..!!

And the DNCG - see no issues in this and think this is acceptable….!!

It’s corrupt to the core as is the decision….!!

As I said absolutely stinks and makes a mockery of football and fair competition..!!

😡😡😡

 

[cryrst]

Why not a two leg game. Us v Lyon.
Winner europa loser conference.
Happy days 😀

 

[cryrst]

Did Villa have the grumps? Is that because we beat them every month for 9 months?

Funny James 😂

 

[eaglesdare]

Just move us up to the champions league. All problems solved.

I’d prefer to expend our efforts in the league and cups and push forward in those without the millstone of a Micky Mouse competition that nobody takes too seriously.

That would be the Mickey Mouse competition that if you win, you qualify for the following year's Europa League

That's right

Having supported Palace for 64 years, my dreams were in this order: 1) see them win the FA Cup: 2) Watch them play in Europe.
Now whilst it will be very unfair not to see us in the EL given the number of corrupt clubs being allowed to compete, if we play in the Conference, admittedly it doesn’t have the same Kudos, I will still have fulfilled both my dreams.
Win the Conference qualify for the EL, give 2 fingers to UEFA and the fat Greek t***

We would have a good case if this goes to litigation/CAS..!!

Couldn't agree more Spiderman. I've been dreaming since 1967 when I went to my first Palace game that I'd live to see us play in Europe. Finally, to get over the fact that the closest we'd ever be to playing in Europe was when we drew Dover Athletic away in the FA Cup 3rd round a few years ago, we can actually dust our passports off and get ready to go - I don't care where - somewhere in Europe. Yes, I'd be a bit disappointed if it was someone like Airbus UK but so be it.

Winning the FA Cup was the ultimate. But if they take away my European dream through corruption, I'm done with football having at least gone out on a high.

That’s how we all feel my friend - this is all so incredibly corrupt and unfair..!!
