Weren't we on the verge of qualifying through fair play at the end of the 2005/06?As I remember, jens lehmann's red card in the champs league final meant England didn't qualify to send a team. Something like that?
Not sure how our league form could have been any worse the following season if we had qualified...
I think we missed out just because we weren't pulled out in the draw. Edit: just seen the above.
