that if we finish level on points with Sheff Utd and our goal difference is the same, as it is now, what the next criteria is to decide who finishes above who. I said that it is goals scored. He said, ok but if that is the same then what next. I said 'erm'. Don't know. Any ideas anyone ??

Teams receive three points for a win and one point for a draw.
The bottom three teams will be automatically relegated to the Championship.
If two or more teams finish level on points the team with the better goal difference will finish higher.
If two or more teams have the same points and the same goal difference, the team which has scored the higher number of goals will finish higher.
If two or more teams finish level on points, goal difference and goals scored, and the championship, a relegation place or European qualification is at stake, they will then play off to decide who finishes higher.
wayhay, a possible play-off at Wembley !!
But it's also a handy point of reference. :-)
nervewracking but awesome!!!
