If Sheffield Utd lose and we lose - we’re champions
If Sheffield Utd draw and we lose - we’re champions elect (goal difference)
If Sheffield Utd win and we lose - we’re not yet champions
If Sheffield Utd win and we draw - we’re not yet champions
If Sheffield Utd win and we win - we’re champions
So, we both win, or we both lose….. come on Clarets, we can do that!

Sheff Utd are in the FA Cup tomorrow - they WILL lose... but it will have no bearing on what their results above do

The only result that sees us champions on Saturday is a win.

Well, that’s not clear at all then
I’m having a day off work, and I think that’s a clear sign I should go back to bed

We’re already champions, mathematically speaking of course.

Funny thing is, as part of the build-up I explained the OP to MrsNRC for when we’re watching tomorrow…. Numpty is one of the mild nouns she’ll call me when I see her later, because it took her some effort to take all those scenarios in

No. What kind of maths are you using?

Just to be unclear.
Plus, we are not mathematically champions, but probably are.
Is that any clearer?

So it's clear that it's not clear, but to be clear, we need to be clearer.

Correct, I couldn't have put it any clearer myself.

I think this OP is deserving of the classic:
There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know.
Just to be clear, like.

The thing about the phrase “just to be clear” is that it’s used an awful lot by politicians.
Therefore, it should be treated with absolute suspicion.
