And if they lose?
Not that I see it possible since their adversaries are also mid tier at least but you would say they wouldn't have deserved it since they would be beating PL teams?

Let me be blunt about this, the way things are so bad right now with the teams playing here it makes the Conference league just useless, even that embarrassing UEFA Cup Winners' Cup was sometimes better than the direction in which this is heading, just replace United and Tottenham with West Ham and Everton and despite having the same ranking teams you will realize how bad it is, only the name of United is some saving face for this, I mean for god's sake we have Glimt in the semi finals...
