Intertoto Cup 1998/9Pretty shit for the fans. Have they ever played in European competition?
Will their place go to their "big rivals" Brighton?

UEFA are crafty cunts.
The real reason they don't want them on Europe is that fucking drumming they do every home match.

Had the option to put the shares in a trust before the March deadline when Palace were still in the cup. So hate to say it but it's on them.
Any PL club has a realistic chance of winning a cup in my opinion, so they should be put in the trust as a just in case.
Look how many teams have made a final in the last 20 years (outside the usual 5 winners): Birmingham, Swansea, Portsmouth, Wigan, Leicester, Newcastle, Palace, Cardiff, Everton, Stoke, Hull, Villa, Watford, Spurs, Southampton, Sunderland, Bradford.
Shit for the fans but the rules are there.

Maybe Forest? They were the closest league position (7th) to that Europa spot (Villa in 6th). And then shift the Conference spot down to 8th place - Brighton.Intertoto Cup 1998/9

Google it - there's plenty of articles about Girona being put in a blind trust.Genuine question though, what about City and Girona?
I assume the issue for Palace relates to deadlines that weren't met - can't imagine Textor wasn't informed

Relatively neutral here (apart from being ABU), but for gawwd sake I'm praying don't shoehorn Trafford back in.
On sport bible, EUFA have already decided this if HCP are kicked out, trust it's authoritative!
So if Palace are banned from the Europa League, Nottingham Forest would essentially be promoted from the Conference League, while Palace’s rivals Brighton, who finished eighth in the Premier League, would then compete in the third-tier competition.
