    Aye we have SBRed and it's getting increasingly hard not to notice Morais tactical changes and line-ups. However, I'll reserve judgement until after Derby County game.

    I previously said he deserved to be manager even in league 1. However, if he does take us down he's failed and needs to be replaced. I still like the bloke for now though

    Position 4 Automatic entry to Europa league

    Position 5 and below--nowt

    The number from each country can vary according to latest UEFA Coefficients but that is the position for entry next season 2018/19.

    OGC Nice will get nowt.
    I thought 5th place in their league was a Europa league qualifying position

    Pierre Lees-Melou's second-half goal gave OGC Nice a 1-0 win over Montpellier Hérault SC on Sunday and a precious three points in their quest for European qualification.

    OGC Nice 1 - 0 Montpellier Hérault SC

    THE MATCH

    Lees-Melou struck just before the hour mark on a sun-kissed afternoon at the Allianz Riviera, profiting from some good play from Allan Saint-Maximin before lashing a low shot from range into the bottom corner (59').

    Saint-Maximin came close to making it two late on, but Nice settled for a victory by the narrowest of margins, with even the presence of Mario Balotelli in attack unable to overly trouble the visiting defence.

    It is just one defeat in eight outings now for Lucien Favre's side, with that a narrow reverse at home to the champions Paris Saint-Germain. It leaves them in a UEFA Europa League qualifying spot in fifth, four points clear of Montpellier. They are now eighth, their own European ambitions hit by this first Ligue 1 Conforama defeat since January.

    Mmm, it contradicts the information from the sources below. Nice may be four points clear of Montpellier but are only one point clear of sixth spot.

    Source 1 Google "tablesleague.com/france"
    Look at table, click on colours 1,2,3,4,5 next to team to show what that position indicates in terms of qualification.

    Source 2 Google OGC Nice Official Website
    Scroll down to box headed "Matches". Click on "league Table". Click on light brown "Full League Table"--the black and white football symbols indicate Champions League spots, the brown/red symbol indicates Europa League.

    I can only go on information given there for what I have posted. The Nice media man that wrote your info says different. There may be a Play Off starting in July for additional Europa League places that could explain the difference.
