PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’16 Week 2 round up!

Written by

“Flexxin”:

There’ll be dancing on the streets of Beeston, Nottingham & um, Reading this week! Not because Leicester are having a “wobble” from trying to upstage Cloughy’s Forest, more cos the Guardian’s own PAS record holder has come good again! Tony Bowley 35(6) has Celtic’s 93rd minute Lee Griffiths strike to thank for the 3-0 that nudged him in front of the unlucky Mark F…

Congrats gaffer, one to tell the Sales Team in Friday round up Tone?!

 

“Fester”:

If you’re gonna fail you might as well do it like, erm, Arsenal?

So the creator falls from grace. Yours Truly 10 (0) is this weeks duffer. A new low. I’ve a good mind to take my ball home and not play anymore….however, I did win £75 from a Reading, Palace, West Ham £1 trixie this weekend!

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

It was really difficult this week, obv – most popular score was Celtic’s aforementioned 3-0 over Inverness – 18 of youse got that!

9 got the 3-0 at Craven Cottage

7 got the 0-0 between Kilmarnock & Dundee.

John K (welcome!), Tasha M (welcome!) & Andy F got Palace’s fine win at the Lane!

SimonLinds, Anders H & Paul C got Brentford 1-3 Derby

Mark F nailed Bristol City’s away win in Milton Keynes

Lee P (welcome!) got Millwall’s hammering of Peterborough

Nick H came good with Mansfield 3 Dagenham 2

However, this week’s best correct score, and new best correct score of the season, goes to Ross Butcher for his beginners luck, Chelsea 5 Man City 1. (just don’t mention it to Matt W…or the other 1-5 actually…)

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 83 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We lost! Big time! All three went west…

53.25% MK Dons V Bristol City – Lee Johnson weaves more magic…

49.35% Huddersfield V Wolves – Kenny Jackett’s P45 imminent!

48.05% Brentford V Derby – Paul Clement must be swearing in fluent Castilian…

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 11th. Hmmmmm….

To be fair the closest to a win would have come with 3 home wins, but the Arse would’ve let us down for a full house! Imagine!

 

Table News:

“Decided Knowledge“: Tony Bowley moves up 4 places to go 1 point ahead of new boy John K who in turn is eight points ahead of Pete B in third.

Loads crashed the Top Ten.

 

“Be Right Back“: Ooops! Predictz goes down two places to the bottom of the pile 2 points behind El Presidente who in turn is 3 points off Sam A. I take it all back Debbie L….

 

 

“Upsilon“: Highest climber this week, up a whopping 46 places is Andy Fowler – honourable mentions go to Neil H (+34), George T (+45), Arthur H (+42), Ross B (+43) and Martin S (+36)

 

 

“In & Out“: Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 49 places is Tasha Marriott – dishonourable mentions go to Gareth M (-46), Lee P (-40), Mark S (-42), Norman L (-41) and Howard T (-43)

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’16 Week 1 round up

Written by

“Lazurus”: Many moons ago (1994 actually) I was nervously prepping for my best man’s speech trying hard to find that balance between witty & smutty, factual & fabricated and sincere & piss take. Turns out I was fabulous but it was the summing up that really caught everyone’s attention – something along the lines of “may your union last as long as humans have belly buttons, rain in Manchester and bacon in Denmark (don’t ask)…” But the real coup de grace of sentiment came in the last line “or as long as it takes Sp*rs to win the League!” The applause was deafening.

My mate got divorced last September…

Anyway, others feeling the dread weight of Sp*rs re-emergence were our numerous City fans – a bad couple of weeks for the club That Ruined Football (TM)  culminated in a comprehensive defeat at the hands of our friends from The Lane. However, one of them, Pete Britton 36 (6) had reason to afford a smile as he picked up the first weekly £20 of the season not least thanks to a dubious decision wiping out a Jordan Rhodes strike in the (old skool) Yorkshire derby!

Well done Pierre, with me winning two prizes on your wonderful “Dream Team” game already this season, people will begin to talk…

“Black Star”: Do you like betting? Do you? Feel like you’re a mug punter awash in a sea of stats & experts? Ever thought that even a little bit of research might improve your chances??

Well Predictz 6 (0) tells you otherwise this week! The “go to” site for all things football predictions (www.predictz.com) got it horribly wrong in Week 1 to the extent of giving Debbie L a run for her wooden spoon! (Actually Debbie got 16 points this week – in context, that’s like you or I getting 100 points. Well, maybe not me. Or Gary B. Or Rowan M. Or Neil T. Or…

Correct Score of the Week:

Quite a few correct scores knocking about in a generally poor scoring week… most popular score was Arsenal’s 2-1 last gasp defeat of Leicester – 17 of youse got that!

12 got the ol’ 1-2 at the Etihad

5 got the dull all between Charlton & Cardiff.

Dave C/Clare T/Chris D got the “Desmond” involving Norwich & Charlton.

Howard T & Pete B got Brighton’s, erm,  shellacking of Bolton?

Dave N & Clare T (again!) got the 0-0 in’t Rothrum

Chris D (again!) got M K Dons’s lovely little 0-1 at Derby

Pete B (again!) got the bore draw Leeds 0 Boro 0

Jason M somehow managed to pull out Hamilton 0 Dundee Utd 0!

However, this week’s best correct score, and therefore best correct of the season so far, goes to Rich Lee for his South Yorkshire inspired, Sheff Wed 4 Brentford 0.

Bet of the Week: We got a new system. We tested it last season. It works. We actually won some money to swell the “BotW” prize slots! And, best of all, you don’t have to do anything at all (well, except put your predictions in on time!)

We’re going again in Week 2!

Expect the bookies to be cowering from our £3 trixie!
