Week Forty-One

RICHARD WILLIAMS lead has been cut right down to just one goal this weekend as he picks up just five goals for the week. This is now his 19th week over the season and five weeks in a row. Richard’s combination has Hibernian, Manchester City  and Rangers. He has climbed up the Champions table this week and is now in 24th place as he has now beaten my score of 290 goals back in the 2008/09 Season and Ricky Wood/Gerry Kyei joint winners of our 2007/08 Season with 293 goals.
SIMON DICKINSON has jumped into second place this weekend and is one goal behind Richard as his combination picked him up a total of 11 goals for the week. His teams are Celtic, Manchester  City and Portsmouth. Simon has already had a weekend at the top in week twenty-eight.

At the other end, STEPTOE & SON is still at the 119 spot after their combination picked up three goals from midweek. Their combination is once again Queens Park, Queens Park Rangers and Queen of the South. Although this is their third weekend at the bottom of the table they are now in their 12th week at 119. They remain in the 29th place in the losers league again this weekend.

Most of us managed to pick up some last minute midweek goals this week but the highest score to be picked up this week was once again five goals and they went to STEVEN AYRES, BRADLEY CLARK and AMANDA MORRISON.
The race for the £40 Midweek Jackpot is over for this season for DANIEL GOODSON who is just four goals away from the cash with a total of 96 goals. His team were Manchester City, Middlesbrough and Rangers
In second place this week we have RICHARD WILLIAMS who moves up from third place with a total of 91 goals with his goals coming from the two Hibernian games with four goals. CHRIS SETFORD still on 89 goals moves down to third place while down to fourth place we have CRAIG EVANS with 88 goals. In Fifth place on 87 goals we have DAVID STAINS who moved down from third place. In sixth place both on 86 we have JOHN DAVIES and BENJAMIN WAYMARK both moved down from fourth place last week. 

There was no cash prize money again this weekend but if there was it would of gone to DARREN DAVIDSON who picked up the highest score of the weekend with a fantastic total of 14 goals. That is his person best of the season and it shot Darren's name up to 21st place. This is the highest that Darren has been this season and he has had a total of four blank score sheets. The goals came from ARSENAL 4, CELTIC 7 and HULL 3.

WEEKEND RESULTS
We are now well into injury time here at Golden Goals as the referee takes another look at his watch. What a weekend we have had with most of you picking up goals in double figures. But for most of you the season is now over and now you will have to wait to see where you have ended up in the final table which will be with you after the Cup finals and play-off finals. We do have a hand full of teams still in action so keep looking at our Golden Goals blog to find out who.
