Funny that, I quite fancy us to beat them both.

Oh don't get me wrong my first thought was "that us thru then" I think if anything it points to palace being seen as an easy tie (which with pardew now in charge they maybe a different kettle of fish} !

Fair to say that the draw's not opening up for a mid-table side this season like it did last year... if every tie went with the highest-placed team going through, there would be 13 PL teams left in out of 16, with two from the Championship and one from League One. Looking much tougher than last season already.

The winner of the FA Cup will earn automatic qualification to the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League group stages. If, however, the winner of the Cup is already qualified for the Champions League or Europa League (through position in domestic league), then the highest placed team in the 2014–15 Premier League not already Europe-qualified will claim this Europa League place. In a change to Europa League rules, qualifying slots for national cup winners no longer pass to the runners-up if the winners have already qualified through their league.

 

Good chance now that 6th and even 7th place is enough for Europa League football, as I expect Chelsea to win the League cup, and a top 5 team to win the FA Cup based on the draw.

So if we win the FA Cup and finish 4th in the league, we could help Spurs or Liverpool qualify for Europe. That would be nice of us.

Thank you for noticing kind sir. Saintsweb could do with more observant people like your good self. Most people couldn't give a toss and that's no foundation for a successful and thriving internet football forum.

 

;)

 

P.s. ask me to "do groundhog day" next time

Someone's got to be first. To be honest, I never notice who it is, but there again, I'm not obsessive.
