The Europa League throws up the potential for some like amazing stadiums as well.

You know, the Conference League,

We'll feel great at now, but the Europa League is a step up on that.

And I saw one skit with a Palace fan on, I think it was on Instagram, where he was discussing with his wife this once in a lifetime European journey.

And then she says, well, what happens if you win?

He's like, well, we're going for another season of it.

So it's just great when, you know, you saw it with Villa last week, West Ham as well.

Like it means so much.

And, you know, there will be debate as to whether Premier League teams, you know, deserve to be in this competition.

But I think it's great for the individual supporters.

I just think sort of Palace is...

Knowing where you are in the pecking order is not a bad thing, and you can actually be a really well-run club.

Look how good Lacroix is that's come in, and I'm sure he could be the next one to follow Gahee.

But you lose Alissé, you bring in Sarr.

You lose Eze, you bring in Pino.

Palace are doing very well.

It's very difficult to keep doing that, and somebody like Southampton eventually...

You know, it can catch up with you doing that.

But there is definitely that kind of level, you know, not selling players at the right time.

And you can go backwards just as quickly holding on to them and kind of contract eventually runs out or whatever.
