Carling cup

I know there's a route into Europe. As a lot of the big sides are left in and most probably get into Europe through the league. Could we possibly get into Europe if say we were in the semis.

Good question Tubzo :ayatollah: - But i think its the Final only,otherwise what about the teams in the FA Cup semi-finals.

Have the FA - NOW ALLOWED US - To play in europe if we were to win or lose in a Final :?:
Remember all the hastle we had before the Pompy cup final :roll:

Platini was prepared to set a presedent for the fa cup. He'd be a right tw*t if he renaged on future eligibility

The ruling would never stand-up in court hense why the FA have now reversed their decision on the whole thing.

Correct me if i'm wrong, as the Carling Cup is a Football League competition it is up to the Football League, not the FA, to decide who gets entered into the Europa League. Can anyone confirm this?
