Bar BS3 Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 Just looking at how close Forest & Blackburn are... If Forest lose 2-0 and Blackburn lose 1-0, who goes down with level GD..? Blackburn, on account of Forest having scored more goals. Or does it come down to head to head results..? I'm sure after GD it's then on goals scored, but the rules get tinkered with so often, I just wanted to clarify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View from the Dolman Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 9.1 At the end of each Season the Club in each Division scoring the highest number of points shall be declared the Champion Club of that Division. Three points shall be awarded for each League Match won. One point will be awarded to each Club for a drawn match. If two or more Clubs have scored the same number of points their position in the Division shall be determined on goal difference, that is to say, the difference between the total number of goals scored by and against a Club in League Matches in that Season, and the higher or highest placed Club shall be the Club with the highest goal difference. If any two or more Clubs have scored the same number of points and have the same goal difference the higher or highest placed Club shall be the Club having scored the most goals in League Matches in that Season. 9.2 If two or more Clubs have the same number of points, goal difference and goals scored the highest placed Club shall be determined by the respective League records against each other, taking into account in order of precedence, points gained, goal difference and goals scored. If the above procedures do not separate the Clubs, then the Clubs concerned shall play off a deciding League Match or Matches under arrangements approved by the Board on a neutral ground. The net gate money after deducting the usual match expenses shall be equally divided between the two competing Clubs. Any Club staging such a play off match shall be entitled to charge as an expense against the receipts of the match 10% of the gross gate receipts after deduction of Value Added Tax. In the event of such a match being arranged by the Board to be played on the ground of a Club which is not a member of The League, then a similar charge as an expense against the receipts of the match shall be paid by The League who shall otherwise be responsible for the financial arrangements made with the Club staging the match. These provisions shall determine the ranking of Clubs in their respective Divisions. http://www.efl.com/global/section3.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supercidered Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 And if they both win then Brum will go down even if they manage a draw with us. I don't think both of them will win but Christ I'd be sh!tting it if I was a Birmingham fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
