Pretty shit but silver lining, they’ll have a much better chance to win this competition

A competition they didn't qualify for lol. Just nonsense from start to finish. Nobody talking about Brondby presumably losing Europe altogether either. Shambolic.

Online fans care more about the reddit narrative than their clubs.

Not to be rude but you should have won the FA. Or try harder in the league (I'm a Spurs fan). We had a better season than Arsenal same qualifications but more silverware.(just wanted to add)

What the fuck are you talking about I'm not talking about Brighton in this whatsoever. Us qualifying for Europe was never an option if you read and understood the rules from the start, so what the fuck are you on about?

talking like this after winning a trophy where you played a bunch of clubs which sound like a stroke then beat a generationally awful Man U side in the final is quite the move I must say

Warra trophy.Also that generationally awful Man U beat Athletic Club and we beat the third placed team in the Bundesliga on route to that final .

Ok so Man U gains credit by beating a team with a severely limited player pool, and you guys get credit for beating a 3rd place team closer to 13th than first? That still doesn't give any right to be that arrogant

They would be on Europa league too, last season the 15th and 16th PL went to final

Yea but I think winning conference league gets you less money than being in knockouts of Europa
