WEEK SEVEN & EIGHT


Sheet eight of this season’s competition is now out and as you can see we have our third person to be top this season and it’s PAUL HUDSON. Paul is three goals clear of Chris Challis who was at the top in week six but Chris was over taken by Colin Webb in week 7. Still anyone’s game.
At the other end of the table at number 103, we have had a different name each weekend. But this weekend we see Stuart Kemp in there with his second weekend.
We are now down to just 3 of our teams that have that 100% scoring record.  They are ARSENAL, NOTTINGHAM FOREST and RANGERS.
The top three teams that we have are Rangers (33) Peterborough (31) and Leyton Orient (27) total of 91 goals. More updates tomorrow.

Holiday Time


 
 
The Golden Goals blog will be shutting down for a week as I take a much needed break! But if I can get to a computer while I am away, then a little note here and there might be seen.

Can you guess where I am going?
So in two weeks’ time I will be bringing you right up to date with what’s going on in the competition.
So until then take care one and all,

Games last night


It was a dismal night for our teams last night as only one out of the three teams that we had playing managed to score. That team was Reading who beat Leeds UTD 1-0 at home. That was Readings 8th goal of the season while Leeds picked up their third blank score sheet of the season. QPR picked up their second blank score sheet as they drew 0-0 at home to Brighton.
