At last we have had some football this week. In the English Championship BIRMINGHAM drew 1-1 at home against WEST BROM. The single goal gives Birmingham their fifth goal of the season while West Brom, picked up goal number 19.

In the Scottish Premiership, CELTIC drew 0-0 away to St Mirren to pick up their second blank of the season.

Week Six

In Week Six of the competition this weekend we had two players who picked up the weekends highest score with 5 goals each. They are FREDDIE COLLINS and BEN SCARBOROUGH. Both of them have Exeter as part of their combination who scored five goals in their game. Due to less than 50% of our teams in action due to the International games, we are going to have our first double Rollover of the season worth £18 in cash next weekend.
