PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’21 Week 12 round up

“Seven!”

 

 

Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This):

Another old-skool PAS week (in that a lot of scores went the way they were supposed to!) meant that it was a close congested field once again.

Despite that, only 9 players (including me! Yes. Me!) scored thirty points or more.

This kind of form has definitely come too late for most (moi, again!) and maybe we’ll have one last competitive round for the end of the season… which looks like it may be just in time (gulp!)

Anyway, eight of us got a bit giddy at the thought of winning the £20 when the last game was postponed due to Covid (actually, will we get the last week in? Should we abandon the season if we don’t??!) but what we didn’t bargain for, was one PAS old-skooler’s relentless march to the top with quite an astonishing performance!

Ryan Graves 42 (7) quietly notched up his correct scores with a flurry of 1-1, 2-1 & 1-0 scorelines and only failed to predict the correct result of eight games!

Accumulator nirvana!

Bravo mi Bromley (or is Beckenham?!) amigo – will that “score” contribute to a punt on a Liverpool treble this season??!

 

 

Here Comes The Rain Again:

Meanwhile…

At the other end, 15 punters couldn’t manage any more than fifteen points this week.

Twelve shied away from a single correct score but thankfully the shame of not getting into double figures was swerved this week.

So, who had their head hanging in embarrassment?

Darren McCarthy & Mark J Brown 13 (1) brought up the rear togevver. So they can hold hands in some sort of Mersyside harmony PR…

Oh… Wait! Mr McC doesn’t support Liverpool anymore! Scratch that then…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Didn’t we do well…most popular score was Derby’s 1-0 win over Blackpool– 19 of youse got that!

 

Eight got Birmingham City’s “Desmond” with Cardiff City

7 celebrated the bore draw between Stoke & Middlesbro

Six banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt Bradford City & Sutton Utd

4 doffed a cap to The Arsenal’s 3-0 deconstruction of Southampton

Paul C & Moi got the dull-all at Turf Moor

Mike K & Tim P nailed the last minute Hull City 2 Bristol City 2

David G said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for his Crystal Palace 3 Everton 1

Richard H thrilled at the thrilling Ross County 3 Dundee 2

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Patricia Fernandez for her it’s-like-1970-all-over-again inspired, Chelsea 3 Dirty Leeds 2!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Norman Lee was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 11, so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

It was close…

“I hope this reaches you –  these are my three for bet of the week

Brentford – yes! last minute!
Millwall – no! no one likes them…
Hull – nooo! last minute!
all to win
Cheers” – Norm

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th, leaving it on £0  – do not land here next week!

 

Danny Ashworth is at 60th this week….

 

Daniel(san), I need your 3 choices for a trixie by Friday, please!

 

Give us some Christmas cheer!

 

 

Table News:

When Tomorrow Comes:

Jack Buxton makes his move and goes 6 points ahead of Matthew M, who in turn is nine points in front of Chris D…is it a one horse race now?

 

Two crashed the Top Ten.

 

Love Is A Stranger:

Eddie Osborne stays bottom, now four points behind Robert H, who in turn is 3 points adrift of Predictz

 

It’s Alright (Baby’s Coming Back):

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 20 places is Richard Hirst – honourable mentions go to Ryan G (+19), Neil O (+12), Paul S (+11), and Julian F (+10)

 

Thorn In My Side:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 14 places is Darren McCarthy  – dishonourable mentions go to Dan C (-11), Rob C (-10), and Anders H (-10)

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’21 Week 11 round up

“F1, eh? Bloody hell!”

 

 

Saint:

Blimey! It was a bumper week all round with an epic scrap at the top to boot!

If you scored 30 points or more, you we’re one of twenty six – well done youse lot, you’ve brought PAS back from disrepute!

Plenty were in with a shout for the £20 weekly prize…

Neil M basically nullified himself by missing 5 games.

Martin S, funnily enough, didn’t trust a Scouser and went against Villa – and it cost him.

Neil T was right in mix after nailing Covid FC’s 3-0 Sunday win but then limped home with only one more point from 4 games.

Dan W split the Templeton/Stafford kids power struggle with a Hearts correct score, but then had nothing else to give.

That left li’l Lily T in the box seat, but she decided to “trust the process” only to see Mikel let us all done again.

So, the (advent) door opened for Luke Stafford 41 (8) to claim a season double by way of 3 correct scores on the bounce from the last 3 games of the week!

Best was left to last though as Demarai Gray’s 92nd wonder winner sent to him to the summit by one point…

 

Bravo Luke – and unlucky Lily.

 

PAS thinks the kids are alright!

 

 

You’re Not Good Enough:

So, not a good week to score less than twenty points, but 19 of you did exactly that.

Everyone managed double figures though!

And only two didn’t capture a correct score (unlucky Matt W!)

Worst of the week though was Eddie Osborne 10 (0)…steady!

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Bet you all thought you had a good week this week…most popular score was Rangers’ 3-0 win over Dundee– 31 of youse got that!

 

 

Thirty just knew Watford would score against City for a 1-3

27 got Spurs 3 Norwich 0

Seven were all over the 0-3 to the Celtic

7 more got Brentford’s “Desmond” at Leeds

Mike K & Dom W had Millwall’s 3-1 win over Birmingham

Julian F made us all green by happening upon Man Utd 1-0 Palace

Danny A lapped up the injury time Jota joy of Wolves 0 Liverpool 1

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Chris Birch for his c’mon-you-Irons-i’m-lovin’-my-nosebleed inspired, West Ham 3 Chelsea 2!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Daniel Hughes was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 10, so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

He went off-piste, and…

The boy did good!

 

“Yo yo

So this weeks trixie let’s go:
Saturday
2.40 aintree – kimberlite candy (nope, 7th)
Rory Milroy for the hero world challenge (yes, he beat whatshisface?)
Blackburn to beat Preston (yes, that Chilean again!)”

 

So, £3.05 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd, leaving it on £3.05  – now now, it’s better than nowt!

 

Norman Lee is at 45th this week….

 

Norm, I need your 3 choices for a trixie by Friday, please!

 

Can you go one better?!

 

 

Table News:

Dark & Handsome:

Matthew Murphy stays top but now only 7 points ahead of Jack B, who in turn is eight points in front of Chris D…is it a two horse race now?

 

Two crashed the Top Ten.

 

I Know:

Eddie Osborne cascades 6 places to the bottom, one point behind Predictz, who in turn is 8 points adrift of El Presidente…the charge starts here people!

 

 

Hope:

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’21 Week 10 round up

“Bat man ain’t robbin’…”

 

 

Got You:

Yet another unpredictable week (no, really…) wreaked havoc on perfectly sensible predictions (you can see where i’m going here…) to produce a week where a mere 16 players registered 30 points or more.

But it was close at the top – all sixteen could’ve won the £20 weekly prize!

Bijay L had a couple of 5 pointers to go with his 8 pointer, but then faded away on Sunday.

Alex R actually did his scores and nailed his beloved Liverpool’s 4-0 scoreline…only to ebb away after a strong Sunday start.

Matthew M was in the box seat and odds-on to top the week after notching that Celtic 1-2 – but then inexplicably thought that Man Yoo AND Derby would prevail. No, really…

That left the door open for yet more Geordie joy this season as Chris Dixon 39 (6) saw Andre Gray’s 90th minute winner secure his 1-2 QPR prediction edge him over the line for the second time this season…

Congrats Ant (or is it Dec?) you can use your winnings to get a nice haircut like Eddie now can’t ya! (man)

 

GFY:

This season is horrible, right?

Eleven of youse didn’t go beyond the 15 point marker this week

5 didn’t register a correct score.

Only one though didn’t get to double figures this week.

Danny Ashworth 8 (0) is feeling that Ole-type crashing feeling as he falls asleep at the wheel…

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Please make it stop…most popular score was QPR’s 1-2 win at Derby – 22 of youse got that!

 

Fourteen got the 1-3 Teddy Bears win over Livingston

14 more had Liverpool’s merciless deconstruction of Southampton

Five got the dull-all at The Posh

4 got Bournemouth’s “Desmond” with Coventry City

Bijay L got Dundee 3 Motherwell 0

Paul C celebrated the bore draw between Norwich & Wolves

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to newbie Damian Heavern for his I-did-a-Red-Bull-warm-up-too-inspired, Leicester 4 Watford 2!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Richard Hirst was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 9, so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

 

It’s not going to plan….

 

“My bet is Huddersfield, Mk Dons and Bradford (all to win)”

No, yes, no…

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd, leaving it on £6.15  – shame…

 

Daniel Hughes  is at 33rd this week….

 

Dan, I need your 3 choices for a trixie by Friday, please!

 

Can you get us…something?!

 

 

Table News:

Cup Of Destiny:

Matthew Murphy maintains pole position but now 10 points ahead of Jack B, who in turn is two points in front of Chris D

 

One(!) crashed the Top Ten.

 

Gacked On Anger:

Predictz slips 4 places to the back of the pack , four points behind Moi, who in turn is 6 points adrift of Dan W

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 20 places is Damian Heavern – honourable mentions go to Bijay L (+19), Andy F (+18), Paul H (+16), Matt W (+14), Alex R (+19), and Richard H (+14)

 

Monsoon Rock:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 17 places is Danny Ashworth  – dishonourable mentions go to Nick H (-11), Jamie S (-11), Stuart F (-15), Joanne McK (-13), Chris B (-13), Sam A (-13) and Neil C (-15)

Matchday 5 Group games went ahead this week…
