Week Thirty-Nine

Our last full league fixture of 2014/15 gave us an average score of just three goals each. Although we had some teams that picked up their highest score of the season for a while, six people failed to pick up any goals from their combinations this weekend. The reason for that is that ten of our teams did not score any goals.
The highest score that we had came from League One where League Champions, BRISTOL CITY picked up their highest score of the season with a 8-2 thrashing of Walsall at home. City have finished on a grand total of 103 goals.
This is their 13th season with Golden Goals and they were one of our original teams from our very first season where they finished on a total of 79 goals. Their highest score was 80 goals from last season, so this is a record for Bristol City. They now become our 37th team in 32 years to score100 or more goals and they are now in 28th place in the 100 Goals Club.
City have scored a total of 962 goals over the seasons and that gives them an average score of 74 goals per season.
