In Week Thirty-Three of the competition and we had just one winner to
take the full £6 cash prize money with 8 goals, and it went to PHIL REEVE
our two time Champion from the 1987/88 Season and then again in the 2011/12
Season. This is his second win of the season and he last won some cash in Week
Fourteen. Since then he has picked up just one more blank score sheet to give
him a total of three to date. His best team is still Manchester City.
CELTIC 1, MANCHESTER CITY 3, WEST HAM 4

MIDWEEK GOALS JACKPOT
Nearly half
of us managed to pick up some goals in midweek this week. The highest score that
we had was with six goals and they went to JAMES BLYTH and TERRY WARWICK. James teams are Aston
Villa, Celtic and Notts County which took his midweek total up to 70 goals. Terry
has Aston Villa, Manchester City and Notts County and he is now on 75 midweek
goals. The race for the cash has had a little change this
week.
This week
we have not added any new players name to the list with 50 or more midweek
goals and this week and we remain with a total of 125 that have reached that
mark.
So once
again we still have GRAHAM HARRIS at
the top and he now needs just four goals to win the cash as he picks up five
goals. Graham has Hearts, Tottenham and West Brom and a total of 96 goals. JUNE TIGHE has remained in second place again with a total of 88 goals
but she is now joined with KELLIE STRATTON who has moved up from third place. In third
place this week up from four is JOHN
DAVIES with a total of 87 goals. In fourth place down from three we have DANNY HARRINGTON on a total of 86 goals.
WEEKEND
RESULTS
We had most
of our teams in action over weekend with fifteen of them failing to score any
goals once again. We had another fourteen teams that had no game but some of
these are due to the bad weather we had over the weekend. So the weekends
average score for the third weekend running remained at 4 goals. All but one of
us managed to pick up some goals this weekend. The highest score that we had came
from the English Premiership where WEST HAM won 4-3 at home against
Huddersfield. That has taken their goals tally up to 57 goals.
West Ham are one of our
original teams that started in our very first season of 1983/84. They became
our 7th voted team and they finished on a total of 79 goals. This is
their 29th Season with Golden Goals and their biggest total
was in the 1989/90 Season with 91 goals. Last season they scored a total of 57
goals. Over the years they have scored a total of 1862 goals which gives them
an average score of 64 goals per season. This season they have just three votes
and they have had twelve blank score sheets to date.
FA CUP
Quarter-Finals
We had just four of the eight teams that were left in the FA
Cup. But they had to play against each other which means we could end up

CITY by half-time, but once again City turned the game around and won 3-2
away. Swansea after a two game dry spell
for goals are now on a total of 58. City take their goals tally up to 114. WOLVES
