Fair play to Bradford
Villa are an embarrassment to The Premier League
If Chelsea make a comeback and win the tie tomorrow then Bradford will be playing in The Europa League next season

No they won't.
Bradford have to WIN the final to get into the Europa league, regardless of who is in the final with them.

Yeah I realised after I wrote it, that it wouldn't be the case, it will go to the highest placed Premier League team instead.
That scenario only happens in The FA Cup

So Swansea play Bradford in the final. Should be quite an occasion!
Strange how some clubs fall down the divisions and rise again. Or perhaps not so strange; they are usually clubs with either big money backing or with larger population fan bases.
Anyway, Chelsea are in decline..??
