Crystal Palace’s termination for the UEFA conference league can “spread” the club and bring them closer, says Chris Sutton.
Eagle Call Liverpool on penalty In Social Shield on Sunday but less than 24 hours later they were told they had lost their appeal against being dropped from the Europa League.
They had graduated a race after win the FA Cup Last season but were punished by UEFA for Breaking the rules of ownership of multiple clubs.
“I don’t see as having an impact on the players – this is the best time in club history,” former Premier League striker Sutton said at the 5th club on Monday night.
“On the football side, the palace must only move on to the season. And in many ways, it can actually spread the club.
“It can bring them closer, if possible.”
American businessman John Textor had a 43% share in the palace until he sold it in June and is the owner of Lyon, who also graduated with the Europa League.
The White House was until 1 March 2025 to show UEFA confirmation of the adjustment of multiple clubs, but the club missed the deadline.
The decision from the Sports Arbitration Court (CAS) also means the location of the nottingham forest in the Europa League has been confirmed, when it is promoted in a tournament in the White House.
“They have won the FA Cup, they have won the Social Shield. So I think there is still a lot of excitement,” Sutton added. “You still can’t get rid of them winning the FA Cup; you still can’t take a good performance at the Social Shield. If you’re a fan of the palace, you like that.
“You must consider the picture, like anything. But it’s certainly not the best.”
The White House will face the Norway Fredrikstad or Midtjylland of Denmark in the conference game game later this month.
