Crystal Palace Loses Appeal Against Demotion by UEFA to Third-Tier Conference League
ENGLAND, AUG 11 – Crystal Palace contests UEFA's decision after being demoted to the Conference League due to ownership rules involving John Textor, with a Court of Arbitration for Sport ruling expected Monday.
- Crystal Palace's appeal against UEFA's decision was rejected on Monday, meaning they will compete in the Conference League instead of the Europa League this season.
- The demotion resulted from Palace missing a March 1 deadline to prove that co-owner John Textor did not control multiple clubs in European competition.
- Palace earned Europa League qualification by winning the FA Cup in May and claimed they deserved their place, reinforced by their recent Community Shield victory over Liverpool.
- Goalkeeper Dean Henderson said dropping Palace from the Europa League would 'devalue the competition' and praised chairman Steve Parish for fighting hard during the appeal.
- Palace’s demotion implicates Nottingham Forest, who reported the breach and are expected to take Palace’s Europa League spot, highlighting multi-club ownership enforcement challenges.
