    The atmosphere in the away end at Chesterfield tomorrow will be interesting. Combination of heat, ale and yesterday's news is likely to have a few frothed up.

    Quoted message:

    Uefa is expected to rule on Thursday that Lyon can continue in the Europa League on the basis of its sixth-place finish in Ligue 1 last season and at the expense of Palace, the FA Cup winners. Textor did not place his Palace stake in a blind trust by the March 1 deadline as required by Uefa under MCO regulations. It is expected that Nottingham Forest will move up from the Conference League to take the place of Palace, with the latter dropping down to Uefa’s most junior competition.

    While it’s a neat solution, surely Palace have no eligibility to a conference league place and Brighton should sue.

    Decision made, apparently. We’re in, they’re out.

    Impossible to keep up with things Forest at the moment.

    All I've seen is confirmation that they're out, no one including UEFA has said that we take their place.

    Paul Taylor tweeting that Forest 'have been promoted to play in the Europa League, pending an appeal from Palace'.

    Also, didn't Marinakis take his shares back out of the blind trust after we were confirmed in the Conference? If so we probably couldn't accept the Europa place because we'd be in breach of the same rule.

    No, Olympiacos are in the champions league, Rio Ave not in Europe at all. Unless you are referring to him having Lyon in his pocket.

    We're going to get knocked out by Lyon, with Matt Turner MOTM.

    Which is also why Palace can go to conference presumably?

    There is a link with Bronby I think through David Blitzer, so they shouldn't be in Conference either.

    Only 10% of Palace though so not sure if that keeps him under a limit.
