United and Nice can't play in the same competitions

Likewise, if both teams manage to qualify for the Champions League this season, the place will be allocated to the team who finish higher in their respective league.

If both teams finish in the same position domestically, United would still take precedence based on England's spot at the top of UEFA's coefficient.

Most dramatically for United fans, there remains a scenario in which both United and Nice qualify for the Conference League through their domestic cups but Nice maintain a higher league position.

Should this prove to be the case, the French side would be given the spot with United left without any European football.

So i take it Getafe won't be allowed to play in the champions league next season if they qualify?

Would be truly gutted to miss out on the Conference League.

That’s not nice.


We’ll all be able to say.

Would imagine he'll just sell nice

So, theoretically, we could win the Champions League one year and not be allowed to defend it.

Sir Jim is far too astute to allow such a thing to ever happen. He'll make sure at least one of the two sides is shite at any given time.

We're way ahead of him in that respect.

This just takes the biscuit.

He just said he imagined it wouldn’t be an issue.

Maybe he just thought he could do what he wanted.

So is it the same for City and Girona or can City just say "Noooo, that's not true - speak to our lawyers" and just carry on? I suppose they can pretend that City are nothing to do with the City Group of Abu Dhabi that own 47% of them. Wonderful stuff.

under ETH we won't be be in the top 6 so nothing to worry about

Given that his top suggestions so far seem to be demolishing Old Trafford and appointing Gareth Southgate as manager, it’s probably best for all involved if he just sells United.

Do it before the summer and he can apply for another season ticket at ‘The Bridge’.
