TheRock 156 Posted April 13, 2015 If us and Watford tie for 2nd after 46 games with the same points, GD and goals scored, what happens? is goals conceded taken into account to see who gets 2nd? and god forbid, if us and Watford have an identical record, do we go to a playoff for league position?The situation isnt impossible with 4 games to go.Team PGDGSPtsBournemouth (C) 46529692Norwich 46428891Watford 46428891This is assuming the top 3 win all their next 4 games. Would this result in a 2nd play play-off between ourselves and watford?The Spanish leagues determine a "tied points situation" on head to heads. Its a shame English leagues don''t do that because that would of worked in our favor. ( 6-0. agg. this season vs Watford, 3-0 & 0-3) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katie Borkins 1 Posted April 13, 2015 With your user name, I thought you would know this.The two captains have to play "Rock, Scissors, Paper" in the centre circle at Wembley.I am not sure Russell Martin would be the right choice for this, as he is Scottish and would obviously therefore go for "Rock". I think we need a better centre-back and Captain who can mix it up a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mello Yello 2,281 Posted April 13, 2015 It''s really quite simple. FA says it all comes down to the alphabet......N comes before W..... So we''d go up as second...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirsty Lizard 3,155 Posted April 13, 2015 The Rock - If ours and Watford''s goal difference and goals scored are both the same then it won''t be much use looking at goals conceded - as by definition that must be the same!!If it helps - I think the rules state that under such circumstances the team that plays in yellow is the one that is promoted.

? 0 Posted April 14, 2015 I heard this discussed on Friday nights TV game and they said the following applies;Goal difference, if the same, goals scored, if the same, head to head and if that''s tied then a playoff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
