Next season

[WeareBlades]

Let's say we beat Hull and Arsenal beat Wigan, whatever happens in the final we will end up in the Europa league. I'm all for it financially because it will open new doors for better players to come in. However if we remain in league 1 for next season can we cope with the fixtures??? Europa league, Fa cup, league cup, JPT! + 46 league games! Insane amount when you think about it?!

50 games should be a breeze for pros

Never mind if we get play offs as well!

we have had a good cup run this season... be a doddle

 

[MobileBlade]

We wouldn't enter the League cup until the third round though!

 

[WeareBlades]

3rd round in the league cup? How come?

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

We'll still only play 50

 

[Rollerball]

Does it matter how we might do it, just that we probably would do it, I'm ready to believe this team can do anything

 

[Esablade]

It's ok, Clough'll play 'the kids' in Europe...

 

[Pedro Verde]

If we got into the Europa League do you think we might get an exemption from playing in the Paint Pot Trophy

We could always play 5 reserves in the first JPT game, then put 2 further reserves on straight away then not try very hard so we lose. A certain other club did that and they weren't reprimanded for it.

Makes perfect sense

Why, we could win five trophies

 

[stannyblade]

Simple. Game before the JPT we make a few changes. Then in the JPT we make the 6 more were allowed. Or just refuse to play it

If, and its a big if, it does pan out like that, we should defininitely be looking to sack off the paint pot trophy.

We'll probably enter the UEFA Cup at the 20th premilinary rond anyway, we might be out of Europe beforethe season stats!!!

 

[Grecian2000]

Not to mention at least 1 "prestigious" friendly.

Our "pre season" would be the Cup Final replay.
