Week Thirty-Nine

It’s Week Thirty-Nine of Season 34 and we had our very last full league fixture of the season. It was also our very last Weekend Cash Prize money of £6 and that was shared by four players on a total of 11 goals to pick up £1.50 pence each. The cash went to ROBERT NETTING, STALKY (1), ALICE STUBBS and GRAHAM WARMAN.
Stalky (Bob Burgin) wins with his first combination for the third time and he also shares the cash for the third time. Last time that he picked up some cash was in the Rollover in week thirty-five. Bob’s highest position for his first combo is still 34th place in week eight and he has still had a total of four blank score sheets over the weekends. Robert has picked up his second win of the season and he last won some cash back in week four with a Rollover worth £12. Rob has picked up just three blank score sheets at the weekends and this is the highest that he has been so far this season. Alice our 2012/13 Champion has also picked up her second win of the season. Alice had to share her first win in week thirty-six. With five blank score sheets, Alice has still yet to beat her highest position of four place in week eleven. Graham picks up his first and last win of the season and he become our forty-third winner of the season. Graham has had four blank score sheets and this is the highest that he has been to date. All of our four winners have Celtic as their best team.
