Arse play United meaning that one of Tranmere, Sunderland or Millwall will be in Europe next season!

Are you certain?
It wouldn't surprise me if the FA give the extra Euro place to a Premierleague side.

I'm watching Sky Sports News and this is what they are saying.

I think they will do what Ant says.
I think when Wycombe (or could have been Chesterfield) got to the semi-final the other 3 semi-finalists had already qualified for Europe so the European spot for the FA Cup went to another Premiership side.

If Tranmere get through they could give their UEFA place to Liverpool- that'd go down well...

According to rule 1.04 in the regulations of UEFA...... Slightly paraphrased..... If the winners of the domestic cup competition...qualify for the ...Champions League, the domestic cup runners-up may qualify for the UEFA Cup. Should both finalists qualify for the Champions League....the association may enter (the next highest in the league). So it would seem that a non-premiership team will infact be in the UEFA cup next year. I like these types of finals. The only cup final I ever bet on was a double of Wimbledon beating Liverpool (7-2) and Sanchez for the first goal (50-1)....I thank you

Excellent draw for Sunderland, would be great to see them reach the final as a fitting tribute to the late, great Bob Stokoe, of course they've got to beat Millwall or Tranmere first.....

Will the FA be so sympathetic to letting a nationwide league side into Europe? I hope so but I'm not certain.
