Premier League Rule Change fro 2019-20 Season onwards.

[SWP's back]

Basically it’s no change at all in reality.

They've amended it again to


1. Points.
2. Last minute opposition goalkeeping howlers will triple the points
3. Goal difference.
4. Goals scored.
5. Head-to-head record (with away goals counting double in the event of a tie).
6. The result of a play-off game.

Points 2 is new and gives liverpool a better chance of winning the league

Not sure the first part is quite right.

The article I read said that the head-to-head ruling only comes into play if points, goal difference, AND goals scored are all the same. So goals scored still comes first.

Previously there would have been a play-off, but now they'll use head-to-head records to separate them. If the head-to-records are the same, they then go to away goals. If they still can't be separated, the play-off takes place.

However, I read all this in the Mail, so there's every chance that it's them who's got it wrong!

Never!

16/09 UPDATE:
A change in the The Premier League rules for determining league position has been announced. Sadly different newspapers (e.g. Daily Mail) report this rule change differently.

The consensus of news in the media is that league position at the end of the 2019/20 season will be determined by (in order):
1. Points.
2. Goal difference.
3. Goals scored.
4. Head-to-head record (with away goals counting double in the event of a tie).
5. The result of a play-off game.
Point 4 is new and makes the chance of a play-off game at the end of the season less likely.
This rule change will be confirmed when the Premier League Handbook for 2019/20 is published.

So.................where does the goals scored from outside the area bit kick in?

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

Why cant they just do it on who should have won morally or who had the best net spend etc?

Least amount of empty seats (as a percentage obviously)?

It means there’s no point in continuing trying to score once you get to 2-0.

Also means that if you get a rough decision off the officials in a game against a team close to you in the league it would hurt way more.

Can't see officials ever working against us...... :-/

I wouldn't worry, the likelihood of it coming down to that is so remote.
