They were EMMA NEWMAN, KAREN SMITH, BOB SOPER, JACQUI WILLIAMS and JULIA WOOD Four of them had Arsenal to pick up their highest score while Emma had Dumbarton.

100 MIDWEEK GOALS JACKPOT
Eighty-eight players picked some more midweek goals this week but it was GARY BROWN who picked up the most amount of goals with nine, coming from Ayr Utd with five and Sunderland with four goals. His other team is Celtic. That  takes his midweek total up to 37 goals and in joint second place this week. So the race for the cash has changed this week.
