WEEKEND RESULTS

We had another full weekend fixture but it’s was not a high scoring weekend. We had just 2 teams with no game over the weekend with another 9 of our teams that failed to score any goals. So for our weekends average score went back down to 5 goals. So if your combination picked up more than that, then you have done very well this weekend. 

The Highest score over the weekend was 5 goals and they came from the Scottish League One where STENHOUSEMUIR  picked up their biggest result to date, winning 5-1 at home to Anna. Stenhousemuir are now on a total of 15 goals.

Last season they finished on a total of 53 goals. This is their 8th Season with us and over the years they have scored a total of 951 goals. This gives them an average score of 52.8 goals per season to date. They have had a total of 4 blank score sheet out of their 9 league/cup games played this season.
