That could happen. Here's how it could pan out:

1715 today - Sheff U beat scum 5-0
1930 today - we lose to Bburn 10-0
1200 tomorrow - Seethes beat Villa 11-0

We are then third.

Final day.

Sheff U drawing 2-2 at 90' get a penalty, which is struck hard against the crossbar, causing it to bounce back, off the referee and into the path of Afobe who gleefully slots home. It finishes 2-3 on 92'.

Leeds 8-0 at Ipswich at 90'. Celebrations around the whole ground because we are losing 3-2 at Villa. Fourth official for our game signals three minutes' time added on, and we're already three and a half minutes into that. Suddenly Godfrey gets the ball, releases Max who hits a lovely crossfielder to Jamal who one-touches it to Argos who slips it through to Emi who squares to Teemu who slots it home with the last kick of the season.

Leeds get a ninth but for naught as our single solitary sad little point is enough.

Scientists later pinpoint this precise time as "Seethe Point Zero".

I wonder what odds you'd get for that lot?
