Can we qualify with a seventh place finish?
If the FACup finalists are both from the top four then theres still four places up for grabs. One will come from the League Cup, this will probably be Cardiff or Crystal Palace as losing finalists this would then leave fifth sixth and seventh to qualify.
Is this correct ???

only 5th place gets europa league along with FA Cup winners/runner-up hence why we are in it this season, Spurs finished 5th, Birmingham won a cup and Fulham in for fair play so I believe that at the most it will go to 6th place if 2 top 4 teams are in the final?

3 places
5th Place in League
Carling Cup Winners - (if winners finish top 5 - then place is awarded to 6th place team - not runners-up)
FA Cup Winners (If winners finish top 6 - then place is awarded to Runners-up. If Runners up are also in top 6 then the place goes to the 7th placed team).
So if Citeh or L'pool win the Carling Cup and if the FA Cup final is contested by 2 teams in the top 6 then 7th place will be a Europa Place.
Hope that makes sense.
PS Fulham got in through Fair Play - don't think we have much chance of getting that spot!
