WEEK 20 - The fastest goal, and an even quicker right hand


Not that I am complaining! Not surprisingly, all this week's highest scorers had Stoke (and 60 pts) to score the fastest goal - A pretty wise choice, and for Matt Foote, one that contributed to his winning score this week - an excellent 213. He flies up the Overall Table into 4th place, but young Adam Lande fends off the rather more experienced Gary Mabbutt to hold onto top spot ,and will be the leader going into 2009. All the tables have now been updated. I hope you all have a fantastic (and lucky!) 2009. Atb, Ciro


PS - For those of you just logging on after Xmas, Week 19 was won by Brian Adams (The Week 19 stats are further down this page). This prompted the following email from player 208, Neil Brand:


"In addition to Brian Adams winning in week 19's Predictions, Richard Norris of 90's techno group The Grid (and sometime collaborator with Joe Strummer) came in 4th, Tim Buckley (70's singer/songwriter and father of Jeff) was in 7th, Andy Taylor (guitarist with 80's new romantics Duran Duran) was 14th and Ant McPartlin (the artist formerly known as PJ in PJ and Duncan who scored massive chart success with Let's Get Ready to Rhumble, and who were 414th in the top 500 UK singles artists of all time was 18th. Is this a 'record??".


Well Neil, I don't know about that - but I do know that you also forgot Frank Marino in 9th - front man of the 1970's Canadian Hard Rock band, Frank Marino and Mahogony Rush! Btw, for those that keep asking, Daniel Craig is not the James Bond Actor and Eddy Edwards is not the ski-jumper!
