1 point from Europe, 6 games to go

[phunboy]

Do Villa have a European game midweek before we play them next Sunday?

If we can go there, with the bonuses of Ballard and Angulo in the squad and snatch a win it’s definitely on.

Aye they do but it's at home and have a 3-1 advantage so can test a couple of needed

Not wanting to be negative nelly but Europe could ruin us next season as we don't have the strongest squad depth. Obvs want us to get massive but let's walk before we run

First chance in 30 years..

I’ve followed Sunderland enough to know we could fall off a cliff regardless. I want to see us in Europe

I think we’d strengthen the squad accordingly, and could probably attract better players

Take your chances when you can. You never know when you'll get them again

Agree.
Not fussed at all about the Europa rubbish….

 

[Shandy drinker]

Dont be greedy lads, isnt survival and finishing above the Geordies not enough for yas?

It would be disrespectful to crow when the jaudis are suffering so much

Who cares? You can’t pick and choose when you get Europe. We’ve got a good chance so let’s do it.

What a season regardless of what happens from here

2 points off 6th after today now

 

[Stubbs ftm]

We are Geordies..
Makem is a recent thing.
100 per cent Geordies.
Kids today think Makem is a thing...
Don't give up your identity to the Tynesiders

Wash your mouth out.

I'm not a Geordie

Finishing 9th every season would be dull as hell. I'll happily take a long run in Europe and finish 14th next season

 

[Alfies Hat]

I expect Sunderland to win all remaining games.
Whether that happens is another thing.
Certainly believe we'll qualify for europe.

 

[Houghtoner]

Got to go for it. We’ve got a decent set of fixtures too. Be bold and give it a go. Should definitely be finishing top half for me now.

Conference League would be bad financially as the income from it is pretty pisspoor IIRC and I think I read on here that it would reduce our financial headroom having to comply with UEFA spending rules.

Mightn’t get another chance for years , never know what lies round corner

 

[joecphillips]

if villa win the Europa and finish 5th then it could go down to 9th

PL limit is 85% of revenue, but UEFA is 70%

 

[Julio Mackemo]

Take it game by game and you never know

This ….. if we get it great, otherwise I’m happy regardless.

And relegation allowed us to get rid of the deadwood

If we scrape into Europe and finish above the mags on goal difference it'll finish me off.
