PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’23 Week 9 round up

“If at first you don’t succeed, Kai, try, try again…”

 

 

 

The Sweetest Girl:

Guess how many scored more than 30 points this week?!?!

Go on, guess!

What? No, not that many – guess again!

No! Wrong again!

Again!

Again!

Come on…

Give up?!

Good.

It was two! Mad, eh?!

That meant it was all up for grabs then and most grabbiest were…

…the resurgent Mike K (with a three x 5 pointers about his canon), Nick H (who benefitted from 3 added-time goal correct scores), and Matthew S (who nearly sneaked up on the blindside with his under the radar correct score for Huddersfield).

That left our two Thirty Point Club members vying for the weekly prize.

 

Dickie H somehow construed to miss 19 games but still bag 3 correct scores to go with his late show West Ham prediction.

And there he sat present & correct until the winnings were literally snatched from his pocket as VAR intervened at Craven Cottage at 21:49 on Monday to deny him a 2-2 five pointer.

The resultant penalty was duly converted by Willian, which gifted 9 points and sealed the £20 for Lily Templeton 33 (5)

 

Mad, eh?!

 

Congratulation young lady – shout girls aloud!  ; )

 

 

 

 

 

Oh Patti (Don’t Feel Sorry for Loverboy):

And no, it was way more than two people scoring less than 15 points this week.

 

It was 25 actually.

And, eight of them didn’t get a correct score.

Five scored less than 10 points.

 

Unfortunately for Jasper Marriott 6 (0) there was no magic for a magician (no, really!) this week…

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Slim pickings…most popular score was West Ham’s last gasp 1-2 win at Burnley – 32 of youse got that!

 

Fifteen got the dull-all at Dingwall

7 got Swansea City’s “Desmond” with Hull City

Four lapped up the injury time joy of Sheff Utd 1 Bournemouth 3

Four more revelled in the schadenfreude of Fulham’s late late show against VAR victimized Wolves

Stephen P & Matthew M thrilled at the thrilling Nottm Forest 2 Brighton 3

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Lisa Ward for her so-i’m-a-dummy-huh?-glory-box-this-then! inspired, Everton 0 Man Utd 3!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Martin Stafford was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 7 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

Ooops!

 

“After trying and failing with darts bets last time out… standard draw treble…”

 

Stoke v Blackburn – not even close
West Brom v Ipswich – not close
Luton v Palace – 7 mins away close…

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd leaving it on £1.70 – oh dear…

 

 

Charlie Harris & Rowan Marriott are at 83rd this week – Row was out the hat first so…

 

Jefe, I need your 3 team treble by Friday morning, please!

 

Let’s win enough to build you another hotel fella!

 

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Absolute:

Andy Fowler stays top, now a massive 19 points ahead of Gareth M who, in turn, is two points ahead of Olly O in third.

Is the title race over?!

 

 

Two crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

Wood Beez (Pray Like Aretha Franklin):

Danny Ashworth slips two places to the basement, 1 point off Julian F, who, in turn, is three correct scores adrift of Jasper M

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Boom Boom Bap:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 24 places is Dickie Holloway – honourable mentions go to Lily T (+21), Nick H (+19), Matthew S (+20), and Stephen P (+16).
