Imagine being that shite a team and your twitter admin is bantering about like you're Madrid.
I wouldn't want that even if I was RM.

Possible Rangers v West Ham final in a hot Seville with alcohol what could go wrong there?
"Before we will"think they will win it
would be gutting knowing they will win something decent before we will
think we never took the cup comps seriously and that still pisses me off to this day
Because we've become what we mocked. Just another Woolwich celebrating our top 4 trophy. Of course, they won other things at that time, as well.Still, most of us preferred to focus on the league campaign.
For those that don’t think they can win it. Did you think they would get as far as they have?
I really think in a cup competition there are so many more factors at play. Anything can happen on the night and If a team has the momentum and togetherness like West Ham, I don’t see why they can’t win.
People seemed convinced that even if West Ham do get to the final then Barca would take care of them. That went well didn’t it..
… and don’t they have to win the CL as well as finish outside top 4, or have I misunderstood?Ahh bro come on, this gets asked every year
Only way 4th doesn't get CL is if Liverpool or City finish outside the top 4.

The idea we shouldn't have been doing everything possible to win the EL when we were in it is so stupid. Now instead of having some "second rate" trophies to show for the Kane era we'll just have fuck all to show for it.
The stadium wasn't a product of the CL. In fact, the plan was for the stadium to propel us into the CL. It was the result of a decade and a half of planning. It was getting built regardless of results, as it was key to ENIC's plan to maximize value of the club.Not that stupid we have a great new stadium and lots of new worldwide fans. Thanks in a major way to CL football.
ENIC would rather have the cash than a trophy.
Top 4 is the holy grail above any of the cups. CL being the exception.
(And we have made semi finals and finals. We have tried. But failed.)

I'm part of the global fan base, and even I think that's a weak case. The global fan base would rather have won the EL several years ago - being in the Top 4 back then didn't change the fact we were in the fucking Europa Conference this season, did it?
I'm not talking about our failed semis and finals in the domestic cups, which we've also deprioritized. Speaking very specifically, we intentionally fucked off the EL most times we were in it in the past decade when we had a real opportunity to win it. Now we're wringing our hands over the Spammers winning it and having that success to rub in our faces while we wave about another Top 4 banner.
