If we end up with the same points and goal difference as Bristol, what is next? goals scored or conceded?

It's goals scored I think?

However to be level on points they would have to lose and us draw so our goal difference would be better.

Does head to head record ever come into consideration?

According to this is goals scored then head to head

EFL Championship - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

If it were level after that because there’s a PO place at stake it would be a playoff game.

How does that happen????
They are a point ahead of us, so if they lose and we draw, we automatically have better goal difference (+1 minimum)

We won't finish like that. For us to finish on equal points with Bristol we would have to draw and they would have to lose, bringing them down from +4 gd to how ever many goals they lose by.
However, if that were to be a scenario then it would then go by whoever has scored the most goals.

It goes without saying that we need to control our own destiny by winning…

However, Bristol’s heavy defeat gives an extra insurance policy in the event we draw and Bristol lose. Even if one of Blackburn or Millwall win, they will leapfrog us but we jump above Bristol.

That depends on favours from PNE, Burnley and Sheff U.

I don't think there's much chance of our game ending in a draw. Boro will throw everything at us, there is no scenario where a draw works for them. Hopefully that leaves them open.

Then Bristol would be out of the equation anyway. (Not in top 6)
We would be 5th and Milwall 6th on matches won.


Simples, now stop worrying

Theirs no chance of Millwall beating Burnley 5:0
