This story has been doing my head in all day.

It is not "good news", it is a demotion.

 

The league Cup winner or 6th place team (depending upon who wins the league cup) would have previously have qualified for the second tier European competition. Now they will qualify for the third tier one. The one that is designed to give teams from lower European leagues a competition of their own.

I think it is still, yes, but it won’t be if it becomes a competition where one reserve side plays another

Fulham main aim is to stop up,   our main aim is to get out that relegation zone asap,   and finished 21st or above.
