No fewer than 15 teams smash 100 points

Breaking news 8888 Week 21 scores
Records tumbled like Liz Keiller after a few wines in week 21. This was a triple scoring week with some Premiership teams playing 3 games during this 7-day period.

Just to refresh your memory as I play catch up, some of the headlines in week 21 were:

- Liverpool beat Everton in Merseyside derby as Everton finish with 9 men
- The Addicks thrash West Ham 2-0 on New Years Eve
- Mido scores again as Spurs add to Graeme Souness' misery on NYE
- Lampard scores for Chelsea at Upton Park on Bank Holiday Monday

Right, remember that or were you addled with the spirit of the season?

Ready scored a record weekly score two seasons ago of 100 points. In 10 years of N&R FL, that is the only time one of our managers has hit 3 figures in a 7-day scoring period. In fact it takes on average Tim Feldbruegge 2 months to score 100 points!

In week 21 no more than 15 managers scored 100 points!! The weekly winning scoring 126! Who was that winner? Godders? No. Suzie? No. Ready again? Nope. Nobby? Don't be ridiculous.

The manager who knocked the record for 6 and scored a massive 126 points was Mark Dewberry. Well done to Davids v Goliath. Two teams scored 6 points less - Ping Pong Yo-Yo and Rushden & Doggers.

Fuck me even Sweaty got in on the act, with PK's Blue lagooners getting 117, the same as Hilary's London Irish.

Challenging for his first ever title is Chris Waterman, so he will be chuffed to have seen Californication scoring 116.

Last season Ben Graves gave an excellent performance, this season it has not been as good, but in week 21 Ben's Christian Daily Football Genius scored a back to his best 114.

Two of the top 10 sides Ken Bates' beard and Lamb to the slaughter both smashed 110 points. Table topper I *ucking hate Chelsea were next up scoring 109, 2 more points than previous record holder Ready and Hannoi Utd, who had to satisfy himself (that's what happens when your girlfriend is thousands of miles away) with beating his record score by 7 points.

Sodding window cleaners got in on the act scoring 105 and previous champion 2Infinity & beyond scored 103. Title challenger Wenners Utd scored 102 and that lovable Chicken eater fellow managed a nice round 100.

In other weeks score's by Chicago Addick (99), US Eagles (97) and Loveday Luvvies (96) would have been phenomenal, but they had to settle for scores half way down the list.

Rapid Ginger got the 'worse' weekly score of 45 points - amazingly current Champion Pete Doyle's best score of the season!!

What a week, what scoring. Congratulations to all concerned.
