PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’20 Week 8 round up

Not one of Banksy’s better works, but, y’know…

 

Love Buzz:

(Sort’ve) Unprecedented scenes!

After much wailing & gnashing of teeth on the PAS What’s App group (you really need to join in btw!) about the vagaries of “International Week”, it really produced a corker. Not even literally. Actually, actually!

So here goes –

One third of the field scored 30 points or more!
4 racked up 40 points or more!
Even Jazz S got involved…
He hit his best tally in a long time along with Andy K & Chris D
Paul H went all out early doors and four points better…and still didn’t win!
So please be generous in your applause for Will Oppong 47 (8) – a fine haul given he missed 6 games and saved himself for a mighty impressive 5 correct scores from the last 7 games
Congrats fella, you are officially a Croydon legend!

 

 

Lithium:

It really wasn’t a week to be rubbish!

4 people scored 15 points or less!

Even Patricia F got involved…

Scott Harrison 12 (0) not only finished bottom this week, but he was also the only correct score-less player too…brutal!

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

That’s a bit more like it…most popular score was Germany’s 3-1 defeat of Ukraine – 28 of youse got that!

 

Nineteen got Dockyard derby “Desmond”

10 got the dull-all at Lansdowne Road

Nine quite rightly predicted Eng-er-land’s 4-0 thrashing of Iceland

5 were grateful for the 3-1 Albanian win over Kazk Kazah Kazz Caz where Borat is from

4 lapped up the 90th minute joy of Croatia 2 Portugal 3

Matt W, James C & Eddie O had Wales’s 3-1 win over Finland

Frankie F & Mike L secretly said prayers the “Saints of Nil” for a stalemate in The Principality. And had them answered…

Reagon K nabbed the form book upsetting Portugal 0 France 1

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Justin Corliss for his International-Week?-Pah!-I-keep-it-real-mate inspired, Sunderland 1 MK Dons 2!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Neil Meredith was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 7 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

 

He didn’t get back to us…probably on international duty.

 

 

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th taking it to £6! Wowsers!

 

 

Tim Payne is at 65th this week…

Timmy, I need your 3 team treble by Friday lunchtime please – a chance to redeem your recent What’s App misdemeanours?!

 

 

 

Table News:

In Bloom:

Danny Ashworth remains top, but now a big 15 points clear of Alex T who in turn is now ten points ahead of Pete B in third, as this the breakaway continues…

 

Two crashed the Top Ten.

 

Drain You:

Ben McKeown remains bottom, still four correct scores behind Stuart F who in turn is 10 points off Andy C

 

 

Territorial P*ssings:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 45 places is Will Oppong – honourable mentions go to Paul H (+41), Chris D (+30), Jazz S (+28), Karina H (+24), Simon Lindq (+23) and Paul D (+23)

 

All Apologies:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 32 places is Patricia Fernandez – dishonourable mentions go to Scott H (-31), Bijay L (-25), Simon B (-25), Bry D (-23) and Anders H (-22)
