    OGC Nice

    More issues for Big Chien to deal with at OGC Nice--

    1 Defeat at Marseilles last Sunday sees them down to seventh. Two games left--home to Caen which they will probably win and final game away to Lyon which will be tough. Three points off a Europa League spot but an inferior goal difference to 5th placed club. Lack of European income will cost £17 million.

    2 Manager Favre going to (already gone to ?) Borussia Dortmund

    3 Balotelli and Seri off to other clubs

    It nivva rains burrit pooars in the world of football club ownership.

    A 4-1 win for Nice yesterday puts them in the last europa league spot by two points with one game still left to play , although if succesful they will have to go through the qualifying stage .

    Two goals for Balotelli .

    They keep adding those symbols on the League Table Animal. Now one has appeared at sixth.

    As tha sez a 4-1 win against Caen near the bottom as predicted in Post 1. Last game a tough one away at Lyon.

    Chasing pack StEtienne and Bordeaux two points back. Final games next Setdi--

    Lyon (3rd)-v- Nice

    St Etienne -v- OSC Lille (15th)

    Metz (bottom and relegated) -v- Bordeaux

    Big day for Nice. Is Chien even aware?

    On my app the 6th place is coloured light blue and 4th and 5th are dark blue but no explanation so I'm guessing the 6th place team have to go through the qualifying stage which starts in early July I think .

    As you say they still have top weight on to nail 6th spot given the final fixtures and I don't see them getting anything at Lyon who are a very good side .

    I get my info from the OGC Nice Official Website and they have added more Europa symbols as the weeks go by but what you say about pre tournament qualification for 6th place is confirmed on there.

    If Nice do make it then I think the qualifying stage for the Europa League will put paid to any possible pre season friendly we may have lined up on the French Riviera .

    Stalybridge it is then !!!
