This is the first time the premier league may be decided on goal difference.

 

i believe it happened in the old league one?

 


 

 


 Yes, in the 1988-89 season the old First division was decied on goal difference, the way the table was set-up, Liverpool would win the league even if they lost 1-0. They went 1-0 done and then just minutes before the end Arsenal scored a second and won the league on goal difference.


If my memory serve me right, the Arsenal player who scored the crucial goal in the last minute, is a former Liverpool player (Thomas?)

We' seen stranger thing before, maybe Man Utd claimed 3 pts from Wigan but somehow Chelsea score 25 goals?

 

The relegation battle is very tight, i still remember how WBA escaped from relegation in an nearly impossible scenario some years ago.
