The potential qualification for a 5th placed finish is based on the performance of the English clubs in this season in isolation.England have already sealed number one spot in the club coefficients used for 2024/25 and 99% certain to be number 1 for 2025/26. For another team to get top raking they need all English teams to lose remaining games (6 teams left) and Spain or Italy to set a record number of points for a season. Italy would need over 31 points and their record is 22 this century.
It will take a disaster to affect us in 2026/27.
I think you’re referring to the rolling coefficients that are used to determine how many ‘standard’ places each country gets in each of the three UEFA competitions.England have already sealed number one spot in the club coefficients used for 2024/25 and 99% certain to be number 1 for 2025/26.

Have you been chatting to Liverpool or United fans by any chance?Need to make sure we are in it next season Girona, as it stands, would be and we wouldn’t due to the multi club rule
I thought CFG's relationship with Girona was below the level needed to trigger the multi-club rule? Red Bull had both clubs playing each other in the Europa League group stage in 18/19.Need to make sure we are in it next season Girona, as it stands, would be and we wouldn’t due to the multi club rule
It’s bollocks mateI thought CFG's relationship with Girona was below the level needed to trigger the multi-club rule? Red Bull had both clubs playing each other in the Europa League group stage in 18/19.
You are categorically wrong. To repeat my earlier post Swiss Ramble uses a figure of £113.9 million. Yes ££££.SwissRamble uses € not £. It was £98m in the last accounts. And the reason it was slightly higher in 2021 was that, yet again, our dear neighbours crashed out at the group stage, giving the other 3 PL clubs more of the market pool.
You can't say they're not considerate neighbours.
Apologies - you're quite right. It's £113.852m in the accounts. No idea where I got £98m from.You are categorically wrong. To repeat my earlier post Swiss Ramble uses a figure of £113.9 million. Yes ££££.
And whilst it’s good to bash our neighbours, the market pool differential was not the main reason for 2021 being slightly higher. We received c£15 million from UEFA deferred from 19/20 due delayed games being played in 20/21and that was the main reason.
We earned c£5mil more the market pool than United in 20/21. However, whilst we have overtaken them since, they earned c£3mil more than us from the coefficient placing.
Yes CFG 49% ownership, don't think this triggers that rule.I thought CFG's relationship with Girona was below the level needed to trigger the multi-club rule? Red Bull had both clubs playing each other in the Europa League group stage in 18/19.
