I suppose thinking about it, the UEFA cup you qualified finishing higher up the league, as in the Europa league now, but I still think the conference is better than the inter toto cup, that really was a farce. Either way what the spammers have just won is the 3rd division of Europe, but as a palace fan I’d take it all day long so I’m not going to belittle what they’ve done Fair comment. If you recall, I originated the first thread on this topic - a tongue-in-cheek reference to the Intertoto having been underrated given that the Europa Conference League was now suddenly being referred to across the BBC as a 'major European trophy', which clearly it isn't. Or, if it is, then pray tell what are the minor ones called? That's all. Yes indeed I'd be happy for CPFC to win it, but I still wouldn't try to claim it was a major trophy.

They should’ve brought back the European Cup winners Cup instead!! Feck me, even Aberdeen won that Edited by monkey (09 Jun 2023 5.06am)

And as if we’re going to win the cup and qualify anyway, with our FA cup final appearances being 26 years apart, we’ve got another 19 years to wait to even have another crack at it
