Remember! No booze…
“Fine Time”:
Blimey – that certainly was a classic “International Week” so I’ll cut to the chase from the off…
A whopping FORTY SIX of youse scored 30 points or more this week with eleven of those hitting the 40 point plus marker.
And three of them went into the hallowed “fifties”.
Eddie O notched a 9 pointer, an eight pointer and 2 x 5 pointers but still pulled up short…yeah, I know right?!
Lily T continues the teenage girl trend of power point scoring, notching 2 x eight pointers this week – she may well be rueing a (probable) Tik-Tok distraction though, as she missed her prediction for the Austria – Belgium game…oops <gritted teeth emoji>
So that left Olly Osmond 53 (6) up front & centre to take the weekly £20 prize!
PAS old skooler Oliver can thank a 93rd minute 4th for Italy for his victory – however, I think the real story here was the inimitable Wrexham producing yet another goal-fest and yet another late late comeback…
Iechyd da!
“Walkaway”:
Feeling a bit underwhelmed by the “point plunder” that International Week promises?
Yeah, I know…
Only 6 people failed to get more than fifteen points this week.
All of them hit double figures though <smiley emoji>
Three poor souls didn’t manage a correct score despite scoring 20, 19 & 16 points (yes, that’s you Roshan T, Dickie H & Julian F!)
Good news though – Mr 2-0 15 (1) and his followers (yes, that includes you PAS Board members! My office. Tomorrow! 7am sharp!) finished bottom of the pile.
Bad news – International Week is back in Week 8 – eeeek!
Correct Score of the Week:
Mate…most popular score was Norn Iron’s 3-0 win over San Marino – 28 of youse got that!
Nineteen got Romania 4 Andorra 0
12 doffed a cap to Iceland’s 4-0 deconstruction of Liechtenstein
Twelve more believed in Ireland. A 0-4 in Gibraltar kinda belief…
And another 12 felt Fergie vibes when a Frattesi 93rd minute goal secured an 8 pointer 4-0 against Malta
Eleven celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 3-2 Wrexham win over Salford
9 thanked the Lord for Herr Kane for securing them a 3-1 five points v Italy
Nine more obviously guessed Denmark would beat Kazakhstan 3-1
5 somehow stumbled on Malta 1 Ukraine 3 (how????)
Patricia F said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for her San Marino 1 Denmark 2
Deepak B made us all green by happening upon Ireland 0-2 Greece
Simon Linds snaffled up the 9 points served up by the Austria & Belgium 2-3
However, this week’s best correct score goes to Paul Carter for his I’m-still-very-much-aware-that-CR7-is-still-doing-the-doo inspired, Portugal 3 Slovakia 2!
Bet of the Week:
Stuart Fitzsimon was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 2 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.
And guess what?!
So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th – another, ahem, acceptable start.
Gary Mitchell is at 45th this week – meaning, unbelievably he’s back for another go…or no show!
Gary! Gary! GARY! (jeeez, I sound like Dean from Lock Stock now…), I need your 3 team treble by Friday morning, please!
Bon chance!
Table News:
“Alright”:
Olly Osmond glides up 13 places to the top, 3 points ahead of Kate S who, in turn, is one point ahead of Jamie S in third.
SIX crashed the Top Ten!
Julian Fernandez slides three places to the foot of the table, 3 points off Danny A, who, in turn, is one point away from Dave N…<monkey with head in hands emoji>
