One More Week To Go

We have now finished all of our league games this weekend and another season nearly finished.

Saturday RANGERS played their second leg Premiership final play-off game against Hibernian and lost that one 1-0 but the good news is that although Rangers picked up their 8^th blank score sheet of the season, they win the round 2-1 on aggregate. They will play Motherwell in another two leg final game this week. Staying in Scotland, Champions CELTIC picked up the biggest score for us on the day when they beat Inverness 5-0 at home. Celtic finished on a grand total of 110 goals.

In the English Premiership last league games of the season, Champions CHELSEA won 3-1 at home to Sunderland and they finished on a total of 89 goals. MANCHESTER CITY finished in second place as they win 2-0 at home to Southampton and finished on a total of 92 goals which is a far cry from last season’s total of 137. ARSENAL finished third as they win 4-1 at home to West Brom. Arsenal are now on a total of 83 goals and they still have the FA Cup final to play this weekend. In fourth place is MANCHESTER UNITED as they drew 0-0 away to Hull. That was their 10^th blank score sheet of the season and they have scored just three goals in their last six league games. They end on just 71 goals which is not their worst score with Golden Goals. We had to go back to 1989/90 to see one of their lowest scores of just 64 goals. TOTTENHAM finished on 75 goals as they beat EVERTON 1-0 away. Everton picked up their 13^th blank of the season. LIVERPOOL lost 6-1 away to Stoke to pick up goal number 68. CRYSTAL PALACE win their last game of the season with a 1-0 win at home to Swansea. Palace finished on 60 goals. QUEENS PARK RANGERS lost 5-1 away to Leicester City and finished on a total of 42 goals. 

In the League One Play-off Final, PRESTON are back into the Championship as they beat Swindon 4-0. Preston are now become our fifth team to score 100 goals as they finish on a grand total of 101 goals which is the best they have ever done with us. 

Today NORWICH are promoted back in to the Premiership as they beat Middlesbrough 2-0 at Wembley in the Championship Final Play-off. Norwich have ended on a total of 97 goals which becomes their second best end of season goals total with Golden Goals. Their best was back in our 2009/10 Season with 102 goals. 

So we are now left with just two of our teams left in action. ARSENAL (with 22 votes) take on Aston Villa in the FA Cup Final and from Scotland, RANGERS (with 40 votes) take on Motherwell in that Premiership Final Play-off.
