Month 7 February 2022
Adam Kilbride responded to the challenge in January by increasing his lead to 21 points at the end of February, over Max Richardson. In fact there was no change in the Top 4. So, at the end of the month Adam still leads with 1816 points, Max is 2nd with 1795 points, Kieran Follett in 3rd with 1778, and David Groves in 4th with 1776 points.
MOTM for February was Paul Rogers with 357 points, well clear of Ally Townend in 2nd on 336 points. Paul had a very consistent month to claim his first prize money of the season. Joe Stone and Barney Le Fevre just missed out on second with 333 points. Paul wins £30 and Ally wins £10.
I made a good start to the month using my 'Free Hit' in Week 25, then Week 26 had Mo Salah triple captain written all over it. Surely no one else would notice. I got one part right with Mo Salah scoring 84 points, the only problem was most people also had him as Triple Captain. I did okay finishing 17th for the month and moving up to the heady heights of 30th in the league.
Rollover '100' - First person to score exactly 100 points wins £25, the last person will win £100. In Week 9 we had our first person score the magical 100 points. Kieran Follett struck lucky when Jamie Vardy went off injured at half time only scoring 1 point and giving Kieran the 100 points and £25. Then in Week 26 Mike Barnard struck lucky with only having Salah as a normal Captain, and scoring 100 points. Mike is in pole position but *remember the last person(s) to score 100 points in the season that wins the £100 jackpot.
The Kick Off Cup moved on to the 3rd round in February 2022. It was the Top 8 for the month of February (of those who qualified Top 16 in January) who qualify for the next round in March (see right).
Highest Weekly Score - The Highest Weekly score had stood since Week 9 with Max Richardson scoring a brilliant 129 points. However, that was blown out of the water in Week 26, with Nathan Sims scoring a massive 168 points thanks to Mo Salah's 84 points, and 6 other players in double figures. It's going to be a very difficult score to beat.
The TJG League is still led by Adam Kilbride, with Paul Rogers moving up to 2nd and Andy Barnett dropping to 3rd.
