warwicksaint Posted 25 January, 2017 Share Posted 25 January, 2017 Now that we're in the final, assuming Man Utd get to the final as well, does this mean we go into qualifying rounds of Europa League even if we win or lose, if United finish 6th or higher? Anyone know the rules? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmonton Saint Posted 25 January, 2017 Share Posted 25 January, 2017 We have to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets B Avenue Posted 25 January, 2017 Share Posted 25 January, 2017 Got to win it or it goes to 7th place. Like it did for us 2 seasons ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 25 January, 2017 Share Posted 25 January, 2017 I don't think runners up in the league cup qualify, but I could be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerx16 Posted 25 January, 2017 Share Posted 25 January, 2017 The place goes back to the Premier League if the cup is won by a team that qualifies for Europe by another route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB Fry Posted 25 January, 2017 Share Posted 25 January, 2017 The runners-up of both cups get nothing these days. A recent change on the FA Cup, but the League Cup runners up have never got anything anyway. Win or bust because I don't think we will make seventh.

Yeah and lose and we'll probably give Everton and Koeman European football. Unthinkable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric The Red Posted 25 January, 2017 Share Posted 25 January, 2017 But another way to look at it is if we win we go straight through to the group stages - no qualifiers. If we lose and Everton sneak into 7th they'll be playing the qualifiers in late July which as we know is Sh1t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't league cup winners the lowest seed and have to qualify? Anyway, getting ahead of ourselves. Have to beat United first. Or Hull (crosses fingers).
