Why do we want to Qualify for Europe?

[Its in The Blood]

Lets just finish anywhere between 6th and 17th, mainly due to alot a fans dont bother supporting the club when they do qualify anyway.

We all go on about we must finish in the top six and qualify for europe,yet we get in through the backdoor again and we get 20,000. So why bother?

Looks like FA Cup going to be the same.

since its a bargaining chip for transfers, provides extra revenue and it's good to play some european competition for a change

Haven't been to a UEFA Cup match yet, but have loved the fact we're in it.

Champions League is the bargaining chip. Dont need the revenue. We have lost nearly everytime the following weekend when played in europe.

The atmosphere in a half empty ground is rubbish(not been that good in a nearly full one this season either to be fair) and I am sure the players run out and think the fans cant be arsed..................

The atmosphere against Omonoia was better than the atmosphere against Stoke.

We need to be in Europe to get our name known around Europe for the right reasons, not because we've got money and the only reason we make some headlines in football.

If we get through the last 32, it'll be amazing. Istalbul we ARE coming.

The UEFA Cup games have been alot better than the league games this season for atmosphere.

Europe is a bargaining chip, the Chumps League is a bigger carrot , but Europe is Europe is Europe. Better to be in it than not. Can't understand the attitude of anyone who doesn't want us to be there.

As for us losing everytime we've played in Europe, we've lost virtually every other sodding time as well so I don't think it makes any difference!!

We beat Sunderland 0-3 after Midgetland and Pompey 6-0 after Omonia.
