Fulham await UEFA Cup confirmation @ Monday 12 May 2008, 09:05 AM

Fulham have confirmed they could be playing UEFA Cup football next season as reward for their success in the European Fair Play League.

England have already clinched another UEFA Cup place through this unlikely avenue, with the extra slot awarded to the 'fairest' team not already qualified for Europe.

Manchester City had been leading the way, but following Richard Dunne's sending off during their 8-1 hammering at Middlesbrough, Fulham may now have moved into pole position.

With other factors such as administration efficiency also coming into play, Fulham will have to wait to find out who has a place in the qualifying round for next season's UEFA Cup.

"It is certainly a possibility that we could be playing in the UEFA Cup," the club's communications officer, Sarah Brooks, said on Sunday.

"It is a complicated situation in which administration efficiency is also taken into consideration as well as on-field behaviour but we know we are in a good position and expect to have confirmation from the Premier League early next week.

"For now, we have enough to celebrate over staying up but this could be another bonus, although we can't say more at this stage until all the documentation is in."
