PAS Lucky 13 Winter 2025 Week 9 round up

…like Sunday morning

 

She Bangs The Drums:

Me: Franx! How many times! You’ve got to do your scores!

FF: I’m hungover…

Me: Again?! – Jeez, don’t drink Hugo Spritz and red wine and Kopparbergs then (they’re for 12-year-olds anyway)?

FF: Leave me alone!!

Me: You’ve got to do your scores…

FF: Can’t your GF do them for me again?

Me: No! You know what they say about lightning, right?!

FF: So…

Me: lol! She thought her beginner’s luck was some sort of “white witchcraft” nonsense and hasn’t stopped harping on…

FF: Well, you still go on about winning the PAS 1992 InterToto Cup or something…

Me: It was the Euros, actually! OK, i’ll ask her…

GF: Yeah, i’ll do it!

Me: Do you want to see a league table this time?

GF: No! I’ll just go with my “instinct”!

Me: <sniggers>

GF: You’ll be laughing on the other side of your face, fool!

Me: Yeah, right…nearly done all the Saturday ones now – Watford v Derby?

GF: 2-3

ME: <rolls eyes>You know, The Rams, that’s Derby btw, are on a roll at the minute?

GF: No, I didn’t, but they’re getting stung today – that’s Watford btw…  

And would you Adam ‘n’ believe it!  

Yep, Frankie Fernandez 37 (5) once again waltzes off with this week’s £20 prize!!  

For the record… Seven people managed 30 points or more. Hira Y had something of a return to yesteryear form – tbf, I wouldn’t have believed that either.

Lily T kept the teenage kicks en vogue, landing a 9 pointer & a 5 pointer, but was left undone a certain hat-trick.

And, Frankie L (this is getting spooky now!) fell foul of the Friday night correct score curse – and another victim of the imperious Eberechi…  

Football, eh?!  

Congrats hija bonita, I know someone who’s demanding to do a deal on a higher cut of the winnings!      

 

The Fruitful Five  

Assists – nothing to see here…    

 

Burning Wheel:

Ahem, deja vu anyone?  

 

Twenty-two players didn’t score more than 15 points.

Four did not get a correct score!

One didn’t make double figures…  

 

Mike Krasnowski 9 (0) might as well ask a moose to do his scores next week…            

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

<gnashes teeth & wails>…most popular score was Brighton’s 2-1 win over Brentford – 32 of us got that!  

 

Seven got Bournemouth’s “Desmond” with West Ham

4 soaked up the big correct score vibes at The Coventry Building Society Arena

David G & David M celebrated the bore draw between Bolton & Bradford

Lee T & Gary R got Bristol City 3 Swansea City 0

Norman L & Paul V will shout out loud about the 4-1 humbling of Spurs by Arsenal

Sam A was well away with the 0-3 Sheff U away win at Wednesday

Frankie F nabbed the formbook-upsetting Derby 2 Watford 3      

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Stephen Peaston for his I-remember-when-we-did-this-to-the-Canaries-in-1987-man inspired, Birmingham City 4 Norwich City 1!    

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Simon Linds was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 8, so we asked him to provide a treble (that’s a home, an away and a draw) selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.  

 

And guess what?!

Nope! Zilch!  

Coventry City (H) – just!

Millwall (A) – got played up!

Stoke/Leicester (D) – no Gordon Banks shutout here…    

 

So, £0 goes on the “Bet of the Week” slot, 33rd, leaving it on £0 – oooof!  

 

Chris Wrigley is in 83rd    Christophe, I need your 3 team treble (H, A & D) by Friday lunchtime please!   Let’s make this slot really worth landing on!      

 

 

 

Table News:

 

I Wanna Be Adored”:

Lee Taylor stays in the lead, 2 points ahead of Pete B, who, in turn, is one point clear of Lily T in third.   Two crashed the Top Ten.    

 

 

Fools Gold”:

Laura Harrison is still last, 3 points adrift of (the still absent) Dan H, who, in turn, is two points behind Leo C…    

 

 

Star”:

PAS Lucky 13 Winter 2025 Week 8 round up

O’Ronnie…

 

 

Real Wild Child (Wild One):

An International Week for the ages!

If you missed out on the points bounty (anyone else cursing that last Scotland goal??!), you really missed out.

Those that didn’t miss out really reaped the rewards – and then some…

Thirty-eight of you notched up 30 points or more (yep, you read that right), and 10 of those went on to knock in totals in the forties.

Olly O racked up 29 points in 3 correct scores, Pete B & got 21 points for 2 correct scores and some added-on time help, and Pete C did the same but went one point better to score a whopping 48 points!

But it wasn’t enough.

 

As one Rei blemished his record trying to recapture the glories of yore, another King recalled the halcyon days to take this week’s £20 prize…

All hail Jazz Sian 51 (7)!

How did PAS royalty get clear of the hoi polloi?

That’ll be those traitors in Milton Keynes serving up 4 points in added-on time…

 

The Sceptred Seven

 

Assists

C Paterson

 

 

 

The Passenger:

Did you feel the pain of correct score elusion by a goal either way?

The ones that could have got you 8, 9 or 10 points?

Yeah, I know…

 

Well, is it reassuring that this is probably the best week ever for worst scores of the week?

No?

Yeah, I know…

 

Five punters didn’t get a correct score – Neil M & Simon B must have no hair left this week!

 

Only one person failed to get beyond fifteen points, though.

 

Patricia Fernandez 15 (2)

You’ve deffo got the best worst score of the week if that helps, mum?

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Oh well…most popular score was Eng-er-land’s 0-2 win in Albania – 29 of youse got that!

 

Twenty-two put the rest to shame by predicting Netherlands 4 Lithuania 0

17 got the 0-4 La Roja win in Georgia

Twelve thrilled at the thrilling Belgium 7 Liechtenstein 0

9 quite rightly predicted Czechia’s 6-0 thrashing of Gibraltar

Seven had Croatia’s 3-1 win over the Faroe Islands

5 were proper grinning at France’s 1-3 in Azerbaijan

Mark J B felt Slot vibes when this Notts County 93rd-minute penalty secured a 1-1 at home to Harrogate

Martin S banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt Spain & Turkiye – but still seethed about International Week…

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Mike Krasnowski for his this-was-ice-hockey-right? inspired, Kazakhstan 1 Belgium 1!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Eddie O was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 7 so we asked him to provide a treble (that’s a home, an away and a draw) selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

We won(ish)?

 

England v Serbia (H) – Gooonered!

Luxembourg v Germany (A) – Tooned!

Greece v Scotland (D) – if only they were only two goals down…

 

 

So, £1.03 goes on the “Bet of the Week” slot, 45th, leaving it on £3.06 – getting there…

 

Simon Lindsay is in 33rd 

 

Si, I need your 3 team treble (H, A & D) by Friday lunchtime please!

 

Let’s break the duck here! No putting Spurs to win now…

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Lust For Life”:

Lee Taylor moves up four places to the top & is joined by Pete Britton (up 8 places) – both are five points clear of Neil T in third.

The drama gets more dramatic!

 

 

Three crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

No Fun”:

Laura Harrison remains last, now 11 points adrift of (the still absent) Dan H, who, in turn, is three points behind Leo C…

 

 

 

Nightclubbing”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 30 places, is Jazz Sian – honourable mentions go to Olly O (+15), Pete C (+27), Jamie S (+16), and Paul F (+17)

 

 

I’m Bored”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping(?) 18 places, are Patricia Fernandez, Rowan Marriott & Dan Clarke – dishonourable mentions go to Matt W (-14) and Neil O (-14).

PAS Champions League Knockout Stages 2025/26:

 

Matchday 4 Group games went ahead this week…

Blimey!

 

We had 14 successful jokers! 2 really successful jokers! 3 hammerings! 2 heartbreakers! 2 correct score heartbreakers! 1 close game! And, 4 away wins!

One won their game with 26 points & one lost theirs with 41 points!

 

It’s hotting up!

 

Congrats to Charlie H & Jason M who have qualified for the knockout stages and commiserations to Ric P & Hira Y who haven’t…

Who’s getting a 5-0 drubbing on Sunday?!

PAS Lucky 13 Winter 2025 Week 7 round up

<clap emoji><clap emoji><clap emoji>

 

 

Frankie:

Me: Franx, you’ve got to do your scores

FF: I’m hungover…

Me: Ummmm – don’t drink Baby Guinness and white wine and cider then?

FF: Leave me alone!

Me: You’ve got to do your scores…

FF: Can’t that AI idiot do them again?

Me: No, it’s rubbish – it thought Man City would lose the other week cos KDB was injured…

FF: Can’t your girlfriend do them for me?

Me: lol! She thought her local team were called High Wycombe Wanderers – let’s say it’s not her “forte”…

FF: Well, you didn’t get one score right when you did my BotW the other week!

Me: Alright! Keep it down! I’ll ask her…

GF: Yeah, i’ll do it!

Me: Do you want to see a league table?

GF: No! I’ll just go with my instinct!

Me: ooooooo-kayyyy – this is going to be fun!

GF: Just get on with it!

Me: …nearly done all the Saturday ones now – Sunderland v Arsenal?

GF: 2-3

ME: <snigger>You know we haven’t let a goal in for 8 games, right?

GF: No, I didn’t, but you’re letting in two today, matey…

 

But for a heroic block by ex-Gooner Dan Ballard in the 95th minute, that would have been 10 more points added to this minor miracle!

 

Yep, Frankie Fernandez 45 (7) somehow waltzed off with this week’s £20 prize!

 

For the record, thirty-six people managed 30 points or more and 7 of those got to forty points & beyond.

Ben H can quite rightly curse Brentford, as can Olly O, who was doubly denied by Celtic.

…who also stopped Richard H from having a share of the spoils.

Football, eh?!

 

Congrats hija, I know someone who’d love a Hugo Spritz for services rendered.

 

 

The Sugared Seven

 

Assists

M de Ligt

J Cullen

J James (90+2) – Leicester City

 

 

 

Lost In Music:

“Ever get the feeling you’ve been cheated?”

Eighteen players didn’t score more than 15 points.

Five did not get a correct score! (John J…mate!)

Rotten.

 

On a positive note, we had another week where everyone got into double figures.

 

That left David Goggin, Lee Potts & Laura Harrison 11 (0) in a huddle.

At the bottom.

Punks!

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Didn’t we do well…most popular score was Chelsea’s 3-0 win over Wolves – 29 of youse got that!

 

29 more revelled in the schadenfreude of Man Yoo’s late late show at Spurs. Oh, how we guffawed…

Fifteen doffed a cap to Celtic’s 4-0 deconstruction of Killy

8 made of with 5 points courtesy of Barnet 2 MK Dons 2

Eight more were very grateful for the 3-1 Saints win over the Owls

6 were all over the 0-3 to Rangers at Dundee

Five said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for their Nottm Forest 3 Leeds 1

Martin S, Neil O & Mike K lapped up the injury time joy of Brentford 3 Newcastle 1

Paul H, Predictz & Dickie H got the dull-all at Bramhall Lane

Frankie F, Pete B & Norman L made us all green by happening upon West Ham 3-2 Burnley

Paul C & Andy B got the 4 goal demolition of Port Vale by Bolton

Luke S believed in Citeh. A 3-0 kinda belief…

Martin S (again!) had his secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at Selhurst Park

Sam W just knew St Mirren wouldn’t score against Hibs for a 0-3

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Howard Thomas for his four-to-floor-let’s-‘ave-it inspired, Hull City 3 Portsmouth 2!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Sam A was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 6 so we asked him to provide a treble (that’s a home, an away and a draw) selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

Oooof – wipe out!

 

Hull City (H) – just!

Mighty Leeds (A) – noooo…it’s not 1974!

Espanyol/Villareal (D) – uh-uh, Villareal got real…

 

 

So, £0 goes on the “Bet of the Week” slot, 60th, leaving it on £2.90 – needs working on!

 

Eddie Osborne is in 45th 

 

Mr O, I need your 3 team treble (H, A & D) by Thurssay please! Or Friday, or Saturday, or Sunday… no rush!

 

Let’s get the International Week party started!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

We Are Family”:

Neil Templeton moves up two places to the summit, 2 points ahead of his daughter Lily T, who, in turn, is three correct scores clear of Paul C in third.

I think this is shaping up to be the closest race for the PAS title we’ve ever had – bring it!

 

Three crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

Thinking Of You”:

Laura Harrison is still in the basement slot, now 9 points adrift of (the absent) Dan H, who, in turn, is two points behind Mark J B…

 

Is he still trying to get that banner to green & yellow, Dave?!

 

 

“(s)He’s The Greatest Dancer”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 40 places, is Francesca Fernandez – honourable mentions go to Ben H (+26), Richard H (+25), Olly O (+25), Neil O (+31), David M (+21), Julian F (+29) and Howard T (+22)

 

 

Mama Never Told Me”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 28 places, is David Goggin – dishonourable mentions go to Tim P (-25), Gareth M (-21), Rowan M (-26), and Mark S (-23).

PAS Lucky 13 Winter 2025 Week 6 round up

I heard Arsenal are signing Yoshimi from The Flaming Lips…

 

 

Sunworshipper:

Big scoring week this week, people?

Nope, thought not.

If you didn’t score 30 points or more, that’s you left looking up at 2 others – yep, it was that bad!!

Dickie H decided (?) to miss 2 games and got punished & Matt W should have believed in his beloved ‘Ammers and he may have a had a real Super Sunday.

Next to bottom Paul F rose up like Nick Woltemade but just missed the target & Rowan M was robbed by Livingston’s late spot kick but got properly done by missing 5 games…

Anthony R did manage to hit 30 points, got banjaxed by Oxford, and somehow missed predicting on a whopping eight games!

That left young Sam Webber 31 (4) upfront & centre to take the weekly £20 despite missing the first two games himself.

He was seen right by Luton & PNE, really helped by Oxford, and smashed home 3 x 5 pointers for good measure…

 

Fair play Sam, taking your dad out for a parmo?!

 

 

The Fixed It Four

Assists

P. Placheta

 

 

 

Need You Tonite:

Fifteen points or less this week?

Yep?

Well, that’s me and 26 other unfortunates who really felt it this week.

Eight really felt it as they were the ones not to get a correct score!

Worst of the worst?

Despite Sam A putting in an abject performance, even he couldn’t save the blushes of Mike Krasnowski 8 (0).

Eh?

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

I’ll get my coat…most popular score was Arsenal (Nil)’s 0-2 win at Burnley – 38 of youse got that!

 

Fifteen snaffled up the 5 points served up by Erling Man City

6 banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt Nottm Forest & Man Utd

Four thrilled at the thrilling Brighton 3 Leeds 0

4 more bribed Dan & Dave to tinker with the PAS timelapse cog in the back end and waltzed off with Hearts 4 Dundee 0

Matthew S, Dickie H & Matthew E breezed in with an impressive Fulham 3 Wolves 0

Dan C & Sam W made off with 5 points courtesy of Oxford 2 Millwall 2

Alan C & Sam W (again!) were lovin’ Falkirk 3-1 Kilmarnock

Emma T was well away with the 1-3 away win for Derby at Sheff U

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Sore of the Season, goes to Laura Harrison for her this-is-how-you-get-out-of-a-wooden-spoon-fight inspired, Wrexham 3 Coventry 2!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Francesca F was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 5 so we asked her to provide a treble (that’s a home, an away and a draw) selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

Ummmm…

 

H.  Sunderland v Everton – not even Saint Granit could provide enough…
A.  Peterborough v Cardiff – uh-uh. Like, how?
D.  Stoke v Bristol City – could it have been more wrong?!

 

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd leaving it on £28 –  I won’t “advise” you again Frankie, promise…

 

Ciaran Nolan & Sam Arora are in 60th this weekand Big Sam was first out the hat!

 

Mr A, I need your 3 team treble (H, A & D) by Friday please!

 

Can you emulate the form of your horse for us? Please?

 

 

 

Table News:

 

In My Arms”:

Stefen Perry climbs one place to the summit, 3 points ahead of Elliot D who, in turn, is five points clear of Neil T in third.

 

Two crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

Drop the Pressure”:

Laura Harrison remains in last place, one point adrift of Hira Y, who, in turn, is 4 points behind Mike K…

 

 

Muscle Cars”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 27 places is Sam Webber – honourable mentions go to Dickie H (+21), and Anthony R (+25)

 

 

Destroy Rock ‘n’ Roll”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 21 places is Mike Krasnowski – dishonourable mentions go to Sam A (-20).

One won their game with 15 points & 2 lost theirs with 21 points!
