222594 2004-03-14 21:09:00 How many English Premiership sides qualify for the next season's European Champions' League? Six? Wayne Blanders (5401)
222595 2004-03-14 22:54:00 Hi Wayne
I think this is pretty off-topic.

That being said, I always thought it was four, I know Liverpool always want to get to fourth in the premiereship. There could be some adjustments if one of the top four qualifies by winning FA Cup or Champs League in the previous season but comes fifth in premiereship. I could be wrong, but that's roughly what I am thinking.
I think it is safe to say Leeds won't be making Europe next season.

222596 2004-03-15 00:57:00 There are a million soccer boards out there where you could post this type of question.

Anyway, being a soccer fan myself, I also believe it's four. The top two sides qualify automatically, and the 3rd and 4th teams enter the final qualifying stage.
And as Rob said, the fifth placed team could enter the qualifying rounds if an English team had won the Champions League the previous season.
Arsenal and Chelsea have qualified for the quater-finals, but have to face each other. So, there will be at least one English team in the semi's, but that team will have to play against the winner of Real Madrid and Monaco. If Real Madrid make the semi's, then I don't think an English team is gonna take the cup this season.

PS oops, still very off topic, no football on here, move along.
