Palace potentially denied entry to Europa League?

Wouldn't bother me if we went down....there was a time when I quite liked going down but not so much now. Makes me feel queasy .

I don't see us being relegated but I think we all have to be realistic. We're not going to do as well in the league while competing in Europe unless our squad is miles bigger (and better). We also have to realise we're not exactly going to win both cups either. We're going to have to target and compromise.
I would think our priority should be Europe and staying up. I believe we can reach the very last stages of the Europa League quite realistically

Assuming we get to Europe, I would tend to agree with you. If we failed to qualify for the knockout phase of the Europa and got eliminated at the first attempt in the domestic cups, we would end up playing the same amount of games as this season if you ignore the Charity Shield (which should be another priority)

It's hard to see us going down. Since we won promotion, our points total has never varied by more than six from the prior campaign. Four times that would still see us safe going by the last two seasons

I don’t think anyone is really buying the fact that the Europa league cost spurs and Man U their league form, they’re too bigger clubs for that, despite what Ange at spurs said, they were both just crap plain and simple.

Personally after 50 years of watching Palace without it, I’m willing to take the chance that our league form could suffer and we might flirt with relegation for a minimum of 8 European games. As I said, with a handful of exceptions a season, the league can be pretty mundane stuff, especially at home, a few European games would add something we’ve never experienced before.
I can’t believe anyone wouldn’t want it just to make sure we can finish 12th again!!

Absolutely. Without something to aspire to makes football less appealing

This is ok then? 🤔

The Abu Dhabi derby – Manchester City vs Al Ain is a contest between royal brothers — The Athletic

Many brothers share a love of the same sport, even for the same football team
