Will you be gutted or pleased or relieved if we go out of the Europa League?

FORGET the away day experiences for those of you who've been traveling or planning to travel to away games in Europe, on a purely footballing (FOOTBALLING) level, what do you think?
I'm not sure, on the one hand it's great experience for the players, especially some of the younger ones and it could help us attract some decent signings in the next month if we could offer them european football. And these qualifying games have been good for us - better than uncompetitive pre-season friendlies.
On the other hand, the money to the club from the Europa is pretty shit until you get to the final stages. And those endless Thursday night / Sunday games.... Injuries, knackered players etc etc.
I always want us to win but if we went out I don't think I'd be that gutted. You?

It's probably best for the club that we go out but no fan should want that to happen, its what we are all here for isnt it?

No, I haven't seen what Corden has said.
I posted a similar thread before we knew we'd qualified, asking if WHO'ers thought it would be good or not. Now that we've had a little taste of European football I want to see if people's opinions had changed.
I was against the idea originally as I thought it could be detrimental to our prem challenge but my opinion has softened now that we are in it. Although, as I said, I would not be gutted. Albeit a little disappointed.
Slav is prioritising the league, I would want us to see how far we could go with mainly fringe players/youth.

Embarrassed if it's to a team I'd never heard of before, such as Astra.
A bit gutted also to miss out on an away trip too, although I can't make any games until the group stages.

I wouldn't be happy. We've put up with a few weeks of European football involving players with no skill who just want to dive and bully the referee into giving them the advantage (with much success), so it'd be nice to see some proper European teams under the lights. Plus, who doesn't love having a go in a tournament?

As regards the pure footballing question, I actually think a lot of our players are benefiting from playing in Europe, especially those who haven't before (e.g. Noble). We won't win it and will have to put out weakened teams, but it's worth being in as long as we can.

If we had a better team I would see the silver lining but since we likely can't finish much above 8 why not go for this?

Gutted. Like I am whenever we are knocked out of any cup.
Moreso seen as Europe doesn't happen for us very much.
I have to wonder why any fan wouldn't be?
