4th spot

[Buddha]

I'm still banking on Everton to take points off City and hand us the title.

That aside, I've a lot of respect for Martinez as a manager/spokesman for the club.

That's still the old CL media revenues, am I right? The new bumper deal doesn't kick in until the 2015/2016 CL, correct?

Yeah, but the pot remains the same regardless of how many English teams are in it, so that's an increase to start. Plus I think the split of the part of the pot based on domestic league success is

1st 40%
2nd 30%
3rd & 4th 15% each

I'm not sure how that's adjusted if there's only 3 teams but I'd presume that the 8:6:3 ratio would be maintained or something like it.

Everton.

Everton but Arsenal will get it imo.

^ This..

Everton. Liverpool the city is reentering a domination period over Manchester. Fucking gwed

 

[Avmenon]

Rivalry aside, I hope Everton.
They deserve it; Martinez has been superb for them.

 

[Frogfish]

Everton. I think they blew it with that loss to Palace, though. Gave Arsenal a great boost at just the wrong time, plus their run in far easier.

Pretty much this. Pity.

 

[DHSC]

Everton cos I hate Arsenal. I hope Wenger's empire crumbles around him.

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

Any chance we'll be in pot two for thr CL if Everton finish fourth?

 

[red_maradona]

i hate everton (as a club) as they tend to always deprive us of points, but Arsenal are the biggest rivals and a season out of the champs league would have a much bigger impact on them than everton, so I am going for everton to make it this time round.

 

[keniget]

Everton getting it would probably be better for us so them. Plus they'd have more chance of getting someone nasty in the qualifiers and being dumped out (again - ha!).

Arsenal won't let it slip now though.

 

[rubans]

Is this the highest points required for 4th place ever?
Seems a ridiculous amount of points compared to before.

 

[Judge Jules]

Everton, because the results they need to get there would be better for us. I'm not one of those who hate Arsenal and I would have said them, but I'm a Liverpool supporter long before I'm an Everton hater.

If I were a betting man, though, my money would go on the Arse now.

 

[dogboy]

Everton. Mainly so I dont have to watch the arsenal squad celebrate 4th place but also thier 40 million plus 1 pound fuckwittery.

 

[RedZeppelin III]

they're at it again , celebrating their mighty win over Hull . If they win the cup and get 4th i suspect a few of them might retire , i mean it doesn't get better than that , just go out at the top .

 

[SummerOnions]

Ramsey said winning the FA cup would make it their best season in a long while. Says everything

 

[Judge Jules]

Especially since he's right.

 

[Lippy]

The good thing about the battle for 4th is the blueshite still have a chance and they'll fight for it in very game, including Man City.
