Wouldn't Newcastle be in the group stage due to their lge position?
Obvious to be spurs in grp stage if Chelsea win Ch Lge.
I know Chelsea won the cup, so not sure who has preference 5th place or FA Cup winners if Bayern beat Chelsea.
By the way I'm a Spurs fan & would normally support Chelsea but with the Champions Lge final deciding. Our own participation and the inevitable knock on effect on transfers in & out I will be supporting Bayern Munich.

UEFA have changed the access Rules

No hes right.
If Chelsea win the CL final, Spurs drop into the EL group stage. If Chelsea lose they are in the EL group stage as FA cup winners.
Liverpool and Newcastle are unaffected either way!
EDIT: JUDIO BEAT ME TO IT

From next season, the cup winners of the six top-ranked associations will have direct access to the UEFA Europa League group stage along with the defending champions.

What about Wales and Northern Ireland?
Here we go again
Main Change this season is ITV 4 get first two games and FIVE get none
ITV has agreed a deal to become the lead UK broadcaster of UEFA Europa League in a three-year agreement that ends Channel 5's coverage of the tournament.
The commercial broadcaster has picked up the TV rights to the first and second picks of Europa League matches from the 2012-13 to 2014-15 seasons inclusive. ESPN has picked up the remaining rights.
ITV will show most of its matches on digital channel ITV4 and website ITV.com, but any games featuring UK teams from the quarter-finals onwards will be shown on ITV1. The broadcaster will also air a highlights programme each week of the competition.
ESPN has grabbed the remaining rights and will show at least one game per kick-off slot each matchweek on its UK channel, as well as a highlights package.

All of Newcastle's matches are at the same time as Liverpool's. So I expect all their matches to be on ESPN because Itv4 will choose the Liverpool games.

Unless Newcastles last group game is alive and Liverpools is dead.
I'd still expect at least one Newcastle game in the first 4. Probably the second game week.
Yeah perhaps the final game of the group stages will be Newcastle on Itv4. But Im sure for all other games, Itv4 will pick Liverpool. Last weeks Liverpool game on Itv4 got 1.3million viewers but yesterdays Newcastle game got 0.8m. Liverpool get the bigger ratings which is what Itv will choose matches based on.

Except on MD5 and MD6 when games are split across Wednesday and Thursday.

They'll all (apart from the possible one or two) be on Thursdays this year as UEFA have moved MD5 AND MD6 to the same week as the CL to ease fixture congestion.
Agree ITV will always pick Liverpool then whichever of Spurs or Newcastle which does not clash and looks the most interesting game. However probably Spurs as a London team has a higher advertising value for ITV.
ESPN are probably hoping some of the English CL 4 drop into Europa after the CL group stage, as may well give them a 2nd English team to show.

About time as well! No need to have the competition on different midweeks to the champions league matchdays.

Spurs are always in their own time slot out of the English teams. The choice only comes down to a choice between Liverpool and Newcastle for every match.
