I dont think the Europa League is much of a money spinner.I can remember teams virtually giving away tickets for Thursday 6pm kick offs plus the travelling to far flung parts of Europe in midweek must have an impact on a teams performances in the league.

He was right in the end:

Clearly its a name change that puts cash in the bank.

I really do hope City win the cup now, as forevermore will be engraved on the FA cup the name Hull CITY AFC.

One in the sphinx

Challenge Cup Winners 2016 (at Wembley) - HULL FC:



Quote: Wilde 3 "If Arsenal finish 5th and win the cup they will go into the Europa League and City wont.If Arsenal finish 4th and win the cup then City will be in The Europea League
If City win the cup then they will play in the Europa League'"



5th place and FA Cup winners get a Europa League spot.

Arsenal can't have both?

They can according to the way I read it.Arsenal win the cup and finish 5th then the next best placed team in the premier go into the europa league.

That is only IF the FA Cup winners and Runners up have already qualified for Europe.

FA Cup Runners up come before next best placed team in Premiership.

HDM must be wrong because according to them.

"Arsenal are in desperate need of points as they chase Champions League football, a feat that in turn would guarantee the Tigers a Europa League spot through the FA Cup"

Reads to me like City have to win or hope Arsenal finish top4 or they might mean if Arsenal win the cup and finish 5th City will have to go through qualifying rounds to get into the group stage.

It's just the way that is written and you are interpreting it.

Yes if Arsenal get Champions league football then City will be guaranteed a Europa League spot. No doubt about that.

But for City not to get a spot Arsenal would have to finish 6th in Premier League and win the FA Cup. Both of which are still possible.

That is how i remember things anyway.

NO

In the LEAGUE CUP the place would go to the next placed team.

In the FA CUP, it goes to the runners up.

The FA Cup adds another layer of possibilities. If Arsenal beat Hull City in the 17 May final and finish fourth they will qualify for the UEFA Champions League and Steve Bruce’s side will enter the UEFA Europa League as runners-up. However, if the Gunners win the FA Cup and finish outside of the top four they will enter the group stage of the UEFA Europa League as FA Cup winners and an extra place will go to the club who finish seventh in the Barclays Premier League.

Hull can only reach Europa League with FA Cup win or if Arsenal finish fourth in Barclays Premier League
If Arsenal finish fifth or lower and win FA Cup additional Europa League place given to next league place

If Arsenal win and finish in the top 4 City will have to go through qualifying rounds.
