Handing United a 19th title and finishing in a position where you play champions league football next season or United finishing 2nd with Liverpool not playing in Europe. The fans said they'd rather see Lolerpool relegated than hand United a 19th title. So I'm not optimistic.
It's an outside possibility, but I don't thik the 'pool will resort to it - European football's far too important to them. Plus I remember Leeds being in a similar position in the 2002-3 season, where they'd have to beat Arsenal to stay up yet hand Man U the title at the same time. A game they, of course, won.

I guess we'll see eh.
