I think, if we were to qualify for the Europa and get past the initial stages (very doable), that our Premier League form would suffer.

And I don't think we have the depth in squad to cover both. Therefore, I think our place in the Premier League could be under threat and not worth the risk.
Thats a valid point which we just disagree on. Guess its priorities id for example rather come 16th and have a good run in Europe than not qualify and come 10th in League but each to their own

How could anyone in their right mind not want a chance to see clarets in San Siro or similar.

Essentially football as a supporter is a long series of days on the lash so what do you want ? You’re not shareholders nor is your career dependent.

Sean loves to play two games in a week. Wednesday is usually day-off for us = travel day to various parts of Europe or rest day before home games on Thursday.

I want to see my team in Europe.

This season could be the only chance we get to achieve that.
Completely agree. Will never understand otherwise.

Can't believe some of the miserable gits on here. Watching Burnley away in Europe is one of my all time ambitions as a Claret. How anyone can not want a potential game against the likes of Ajax or AC Milan is beyond me.

Attracting quality players to Burnley to build strength in depth can only be enhanced by being in a European competition. Competing in 4 competitions will give us the opportunity to offer everyone game time. That has to be a positive if we're to continue moving forward.
