About half of Burnley fans - including me - do not want to finish 7th if it means Europe (a poison chalice unless you have a strong squad with plenty of depth).
Nor would I want Burnley to follow the West Ham/Southampton example of losing in a July qualifier to some eastern european minnow.
I'm not entirely sure about the poisoned ron nature of the UEFA Europa League, beyond the fact it makes pre season a little more competitive than the manager would like.
It has to be the natural progression of the division or else you'll just end up as Stoke.
Next season will be Burnley's third in the Premier League if your too scared to make that move then after £300+m has flowed through the club, what's the point of being there?
