Week Six

In Week Six of the competition we had the European Championship Qualifying Rounds all week which meant that there was not much football around for Golden Goals this week.

The highest score that we got at the weekend was three goals and they went to LUCIFER (John Wood). The goals came from Accrington Stanley. His other teams are Peterhead and Preston.

WEEKEND RESULTS

This weekend we had just fourteen teams playing over the weekend. Out of them just one failed to score any goals.

The Highest score over the weekend was three goals and they came from League One where ACCRINGTON STANLEY drew 3-3 away to Bristol Rovers. They are now on a total of 9 goals.

Accrington are in their fourth season with us and last season they ended on a total of 57 goals. In the four seasons they have netted a total of 204 goals which gives them an average score of 51 goals per season. They have just one vote again this season.
