What happens if Stoke, QPR and Millwall finish on same points, same goal difference and same goals scored

If two or more Clubs have the same number of points, goal difference and goals scored the highest placed Club shall be determined by the respective League records against each other, taking into account in order of precedence, points gained, goal difference and goals scored.​

If the above procedures do not separate the Clubs then the highest placed Club shall be determined by reference to the following criteria, in the order prescribed:​

number of wins;​

goals scored in away games; or​

in accordance with the provisions of Regulation 9.4.​

Where two or more Clubs are tied after the procedures set out in Regulations 9.1 to 9.3 inclusive then the highest placed Club shall be the Club which has accumulated the lowest total number of penalty points (as determined in accordance with Regulations 9.5 and 9.6) following the completion of 42 League Matches in the relevant Season.​

 
What a scenario if all 3 clubs were equal on all aspects until the 95th minute of the last game of the season and a player either gets booked or sent off and gets that team relegated.
 
Points scored away from home for a start. Failing that games won against the teams promoted. Then red cards awarded. Then yellow cards. Then the number of fouls comitted without punishment against Cooper. Lastly the quickest manager to comple the Red Dog Saloon chicken wing callenge.

If any clubs finish with the same number of points, their position in the League table is determined by goal difference, then the number of goals scored, then the team who collected the most points in the head-to-head matches, then who scored most away goals in the head-to-head.

If it actually came down to that on the last minute of the last day of the season, my head would simply explode trying to work that shit out.
