I finished 6th with Fulham in my first season...and therefore should qualify for the Europa League and come in at the 4th Qualifying Round....but I didn't?
Reading won the League Cup and Tottenham who finished 8th won the FA Cup...is this the reason?
...bit gutted if this is a bug! But can't really find the rules so don't know if those two, without finishing in the top 7th, made my position disqualified from a place in the Europa League?

Yeah there are only UEFA Cup spots for the team that finishes 5th, and the two cup winners. If a cup winner finishes in the top four, more spots become available to high league finishers. You were unlucky!

For example, if a team won both cups but finished 10th, 6th place would still qualify for the Europa LeagueLast edited by DeadZone; 12-11-2010 at 17:57.
