Week Twenty-Three

It’s Week Twenty-Three of Season 34 and we had three winners who shared the £6 cash weekend jackpot on a score of 8 goals. They are  SILVIA FERNANDES, MICK LIDDLE and PHIL REEVE. Each of the three winners will pick up a total of £2 each. One of the winners are with their second win of the season with the other two being first time winners which takes our winners total to twenty-eight.
Our two time Champion Phil Reeve has picked up his second shared win for the second weekend running. He had a slice of the Christmas mega jackpot of £32 last weekend and now he picks up another couple of quid. He becomes the third player to win twice this season. Last season he finished in 108th place on 222 goals. This season he has picked up a total of three blank score sheets and this is his highest position to date after picking up a total of 26 goals in the past two weeks.
Silvia has been with us since 20013/14 Season where she finished in the winning frame in 22nd place on a total of 302 goals taking home just under £8 including one weekend win. Last Season Silvia finished in 92nd place on 233 goals. This season she has picked up a total of five blank score sheets and this is her highest position to date.
Mick has been with Golden Goals for twenty years now and he started way back in our 1996/97 Season where he finished in 92nd place on 206 goals. Last season Mick finished in 60th place on a total of 251 goals. This season although he has only picked up two blank score sheets over the weekend his combination has not been very kind to him. 120 is the highest that Mick has been to date. Below are our winners combinations

Silvia  CHELSEA 4, MANCHESTER CITY -, MANCHESTER UNITED 4
Mick  CHELSEA 4, MANCHESTER UNITED 4, PORT VALE 0
Phil  CELTIC -, CHELSEA 4, MANCHESTER UNITED 4

100 MIDWEEK GOALS JACKPOT
All but eight of us managed to pick up some more goals this week with the highest score that we had was 12 goals and we had two players to pick them up. They are JOHN DOVE and LUCY POULTON. Both had Arsenal with three goals and Manchester City with seven goals from their two games.  John’s third team is Tottenham while Lucy has Manchester United.
So once again this week we see a little change in the race for the cash this weekend as DARYL NICHOLLS is still in the lead with a total of 81 goals. In second place we still have DANIEL GOODSON on 77 goals but he is now joined with GRANT PHILLIPS up from three. In joint third place both on 76 goals we still have MANGO and CHRIS SETFORD. In fourth place we have DAVID SMITHERS and up from five is STALKY (2) both on a total of 74 goals. Straight in at number five is ANDY EYLES on 73 goals while in sixth place on 72 is JOHN DAVIES.
The good news this weekend is that we now have a total of eighty-three players that are now over the 50 goals mark.

WEEKEND RESULTS
We had thirty-eight of our teams in action over the weekend and most of them played in the FA CUP Third Round.
Out of the teams that played, nine failed to score any goals and so for the second weekend for 2017 the average score remained at just 3 goals. The highest score that we had over the weekend was just five goals and we had two teams that picked that total up. BRENTFORD picked up five goals in their third round FA Cup game against non-league team Eastleigh. With the result at 5-1 by half time, I thought that this was going to be our biggest score of the season but it was not to be. The five goals takes Brentfords goal tally to 37. Brentford are in their fifteenth Season with Golden Goals and they are one of our original teams from the 1983/84 Season. They are our 9th votes team. Their highest score came in 1998/99 with 95 goals and last season they finished on a total of 72. Over the season they have now scored a total of 1015 goals which gives them an average score of 67 goals per season to date. BRISTOL ROVERS in League One picked up their highest score of the season as they win 5-0 at home to Northampton. Rovers are now on a total of 54 goals. Rovers have also been with Golden Goals for fifteen seasons and they are our 44th voted team. They started with us back in the 1995/96 Season and their highest score is 73 goals back in the 2011/12 Season. Last time out in the 2013/14 Season they finished on a total of 52 goals. Rovers have netted a total of 898 goals over the years and that now gives them an average score of 59 goals per season.

FA CUP Third Round
We had a total of twenty-eight of our teams in Cup action over the weekend with just eleven of them going through to the next round. But we have another five teams that will be in replays.
