Week Nineteen

It’s Week Nineteen of Season 34 and we have now had a total of twenty-four winners this season as we had two players to share the £6 cash prize money this weekend. Our winner who won on a score of 11 goals and they are PETER PORTER and SCOTT THOMSON (1).
Peter is one of our very long serving player of Golden Goals where he started playing in the competition way back in the 1989/90 Season. He then finished in 40th place out of 44 on a total of 182 goals. Last season Peter finished in 39th place on 260 goals. The last time that Peter finished in the winning frame was back in our 2009/10 Season in 11th place on 296 goals.
This season Peter has not had a single blank weekend score sheet and this week is his personal best score from his teams. The highest that he has been is 28th place in week thirteen.
Scott has won with his first combination and also with his personal best weekend score too. Scott started in the 2006/07 Season where he finished in the winning frame in 17th place on 261 goals. Last season his second combi finished in 61st place on 251 goals while his first finished in 74th place on 243 goals. This season Scott has picked up just one blank weekend score sheet and 32nd is his best position so far from week five. Our winners combinations are

  Peter - MANCHESTER CITY 2, NEWCASTLE 4, PETERBOROUGH 5
Scott - HIBERNIAN 2, NEWCASTLE 4, PETERBOROUGH 5 

100 MIDWEEK GOALS JACKPOT
Over half of you managed to pick up some goals this week with five players picking up the highest score with six goals each. They are  Phil Francksen, Robert Freeman, Darly Nicholls, Geoff Pain and Terry Warwick. All five had a part combination of Brighton and Celtic.
So this week we see a major change for the race for the cash this weekend as DARYL NICHOLLS jumps into the lead moving up from fourth place last week with 64 goals. In joint second place both on 62 goals we have GRANT PHILLIPS up from four and DAVID SMITHERS who was our leader last weekend.
