NOT SURE ABOUT THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL.
Firstly Chelsea are not champions, and haven't been for years. Secondly, as a Fulham supporter I have to be supporting Bayern right? But as with so many things in life, it's not that simple.
With Chelsea wining the FA Cup and finishing above Fulham, will a Chelsea win help Fulham get into Europe next season? Do Fulham want to be in Europe next season? Of course it means more games, and it raises the club's profile and maybe helps keep the better players and attract better players. True to make money from the Europa league you have to attract TV money or get close to the final. There is a lot of talk about too many games affecting the league form and Europe meaning you need a bigger squad, but with no chance of winning the title the supporters like to be in Europe.
If missing out on Europe meant Fulham could win the FA or league cup, then that would be great.
Third if Chelsea do win the not champions league cup final, it helps the Premier League keep more European places, and surely that is good for English football?
So, as far as I can work out, with Chelsea finishing 6th (hee hee) and wining the FA Cup, Everton get the FA cup winners europe spot, Chelsea get into Europe by League position, Liverpool get into Europe for wining the League Cup, so 9th placed Fulham will be in Europe if Chelsea win the Champions League Cup Final?
But hang on, do the winners of the Champions league get an extra place next season?
I seem to remember Liverpool wining it but not being able to defend the trophy the next season??
Anyone know?
Fourth supporting the Germans? I think not!
