OK, the following happens, and in this order:

* Any clubs banned from UEFA competition cease to exist for these purposes.

* 3 places into the Champions League group stages from the top three clubs in the Premier League
* 1 place into the Champions League group stage for the winners of the previous season, unless they are one of the above.
* 1 place into the Champions League group stage for the winners of the Europa League, unless they are one of the above.
* 1 place into the Champions League group stage for the team finishing in fourth place, unless both the Champions League and Europa League winners are both English clubs, in which case this team goes into the Europa League group stage.

* 1 place into the Europa League group stage from the next placed club in the Premier League
* 1 place into the Europa League group stage for the winner of the FA Cup. If this team has already qualified, then the next position team in the Premier League qualifies.
* 1 place into the Europa League third qualifying round for the winner of the League Cup. If this team has already qualified, then the next position team in the Premier League qualifies.

* If the Europa League winner fills one of the Europa League spots available, then the "League Cup" place is lost and the remaining teams are allocated places in the group stage.

Basically, there is a maximum of 5 teams from any one country in the Champions League, and 4 in the Europa League if both winners don't qualify through the normal criteria.






As it stands, Man City don't count and have already won the League Cup. Therefore:

Positions 1-5 (minus City) go into the Champions League group stage
Position 6 gets to go into the Europa League group stage
FA Cup winners get into the Europa League group stage
Position 7 gets the League Cup space into the qualifying stages

Wolverhampton Wanderers are continuing their search for a new sporting director, with Hull City head of recruitment Lee Darnbrough high on their wish list.

Nuno wins MOTM for June. Which explains the last 2 results...

Haha, fucking knew there was a reason!

 

[Parkins left foot]

Nuno wins June's Manager of the month award (& there is no curse as Klopp has won it a number of times this season & they have still won the league by a mile!)

 

[Keef]

Cyber probably has some tea leaves in a cup somewhere that'll disprove that

 

[Deleted Cyber]

Case proved [emoji23][emoji23]

 

[Tony Towner]

If the curse exists (it doesn't) then it's the game after winning it that counts ie tomorrow

 

[Deleted Cyber]

Oh fuck

That’s not good [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

 

[White Wolf]

Last season it was stated that the curse only applies after awarding instead of at the start of the month because we won our first game in October. Move the goalposts constantly and you can fabricate any kind of nonsense.

 

[Parkins left foot]

The curse means nothing - Klopp has won it numerous times this season

How many have they lost?

 

[NoodleWolf]

Where do I find a table/graph that shows a team's position by week? I know I've found them before but my memory is fuzzy and can't seem to find one today.

Never mind, found it on transfermarkt!

 

[GLASGOWOLF]

I know it probably belongs in football chat.
Now FFP has been ignored and can be broken at will do we think Wolves will be less worried about the restrictions or will our owners continue on their current path.

 

[MobNet Wolf]

No.

I really hope this doesn't become the narrative during the transfer window.

 

[lemonjelly]

We will stick to our plan. No reason to change it is there?

 

[Kenny]

I really hope this doesn't become the narrative during the transfer window.

It will be. When we are linked with a player, true or not and he hasn't signed within 4 hours of the rumour there will be plenty of fans saying "Jut spend the money, FFP doesn't matter....offer them £10m more than they want"

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

See yesterday's opponents for what happens when you just wang money about without thinking about what you're doing.

 

[GLASGOWOLF]

I still think Fosun have a plan and like all good business men will be flexible, I cannot see them changing much about our transfer plan.

 

[Tony Towner]

FFP isn't dead. UEFA cocked up the investigation
