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

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…
