Not bothered about Europe

[Large Mendonca]

Must admit I think the OP makes a decent point, but the nearer we get to those Euro places, the more I’m changing my mind. Plus it would absolutely trigger the pigs

 

[TimofeeVee]

If we continue as we are going, we better get used to Europe!!
Might not be this season, but looks inevitable at some point I'm afraid

 

[North East Blade]

Said no one ever apart from you I want what ever your on it’s like planning on going on Holiday to Paris then getting the funds then deciding to go to Blackburn absolutely pointless

 

[SUFC Guy]

I think finish as high as poss this year. Have a good go at Europe if we get there (I think we will finish around 10th actually) and a steady prem season next season and finish around midway.

BTW, how many tickets are we likely to get in a euro fixture ?

 

[Wards]

Fuck that it'd be the greatest achievement in my lifetime. Roll on that away day in Vladivostock.

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

No thanks.

 

[Bladedog]

Thank fuck our manager is more ambitious than some on here..Bring it on..UTMB!

 

[Brian Blessed]

Before we get carried away and I learn how to say "get your knickers off" in Kazakhstani, which place qualifies for Europe? Other than winning the FA Cup isn't it at least 7th? Think Wolves were 7th last year and only got in because City won both cups. So at the very least we need to be 7th and possibly 5th if Villa shock City in the EFL Cup and say Man Utd or Arsenal win the FA Cup.



How fucking ludicrous would the thought of even discussing this have been this time last year!

I once had the chance to shag Margot Robbie but turned it down because I'd only have had to change the bedsheets the day after.

I’d expect her to wash the sheets after she’d made my tea.

 

[Varkanoid]

So all you saying no to Europe () are saying that we would not do well with overlapping centrebacks ? They wouldnt know what hit 'em! As the old brigade used to say "Lets go stick it up 'em!"

 

[georgethecat]

We were just chatting about European qualification earlier. The consensus in our house is that we would love to qualify and initially draw Glentoran from the Irish league in the first round. Last season Wolves played crusaders from Belfast. We are Glentoran season ticket holders and would love to watch the blades take on the glens both home and away. That would make European qualification very special for us.

 

[Tarqs]

This mentality is akin to people that don't want promotion to the Premier League because 'it's too early, the team aren't ready'.

The most pathetic reason I've ever heard.

 

[Booker4]

To be fair it fucked up Burnleys season when they qualified. It's a distraction for sure

Difference between us and Burnley is that they didn't go and upgrade their squad with the quality we're doing and likely to do again in the summer. Chris Wood is a great player to be fair, but signing Sander Berge and Retsos is a step up in recruitment because we're signing players who have already played in European competition domestically and in the Champions League. Burnley have never done that to my knowledge. Next season the way we're going with recruitment, its possible that Lunstram, Basham and one or two current first team players will be in the bench and yet still good enough to play in the PL. Right now if we have to rest players we end up with one of the Freeman's coming in, or Callum Robinson etc.

We'll be much stronger next season if we continue to improve at the current rate. Burnley don't have that pulling power; we might not be Man U, but Wilder and the club as a whole are really making headlines that will continue to attract players that previously we thought we couldn't get.

 

[west_yorks_blade]

I wish were still in the championship. We would be higher up than crappy 6th.

 

[1889]

Does anyone think Inter Milan away tickets will reach general sale?

 

[Niceguyeddie]

So we have the best chance ever to qualify for Europe for the first time in our history and you don't want it? Same with the not bothered about the cup brigade.

Don't understand the logic at all. If it's possible grab it with both hands.

Why though ?
It would more than likely cost us our premier league place
The squads not strong enough and I doubt if it will be next season

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

If we turn up in Europe with overlapping centre backs we’ll get annihilated.

I don’t think Burnley invested suitability to cope with it.

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Looks rubbish

What evidence do you have from the last 4 season that we wouldn’t prepare properly?

 

[JackSUFC]

Couldn't care less about qualifying for Europe. Second season in the Prem is always tough. Much prefer us to push on without the distraction of Thursday night games in Slovakia, injuries, suspensions etc.

Is this some sort of reverse psychology? I think I like it.

 

[Teofilo Cubillas]

"Burnley spent very little on improving their small squad and didn’t really give themselves a chance." And how long have Burnley been in the Premiere League?"

The question is what is your ambition. What are your horizons and how do you see the world. I suggest that those of CWAK are much more than the ones you or I understand.

Are you sure you meant to quote me ?

 

[McGrath]

I WANT TO PLAY IN EUROPE

We might never get there again, so sod it enjoy the ride. We were League One 3 years ago so live every minute

 

[bornablade]

For years there have been many posts and threads on here criticising the board for not showing enough ambition.

Now we have a board and a manager who are aligned in their ambitions we get fans shit scared of playing in Europe because it might prove difficult.

If Chris Wilder ever said that he'd stay at the club whilst ever his ambitions matched those of the supporters then he'd be off like a shot if he read this thread.

 

[Teofilo Cubillas]

If we turn up in Europe with overlapping centre backs we’ll get annihilated.

Who told you that? I remember when we had to beat Brum in the 70's and lost. I want to play in Europe. End of. Ambition is the story.

Qualify for Europe and there is a better chance of keeping hold of the likes of JOC and Egan.

Saved you moaning about her the day after.

Yes mate, what makes you think Wilder and the Prince would leave the squad unprepared for Europe?
