PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’22 Week 2 round up

Yes mate! Exactly what we think of non-PAsers…

 

Golden”:

So many sob stories out there this week – “I got the most results right this week without a single correct score – waaaaaah!” & “I hate PAS” & “the week I don’t leave it to Mr 2-0 and look what happens…” were just a few.

If you were part of our ever entertaining What’s App group, you’d be all too familiar with woes of “unnecessary (usually last minute) goals” etc. too…

But before you (we, actually) feel sorry for yourself though, be aware only 27 people scored more than 20 points in Week 2…yep, silver linings n all that.

Anyway,

Only one of our parish scored 30 points or more.  * gritted teeth emoji *

Any significant challengers?

Paul F was an inspired newbie, The Hogwoods pushed on en masse, The King flirted with the weekly prize, Paul V used his Super 6 as a springboard, Sam O led the Under-5s charge and Ben McK must have thought it was all on after “Wor Mitro” monstered a last minute header for a bumper 9 pointer!

However, after smashing in a 2-0 at Ashton Gate where I was confidently, patiently awaiting a 2-1 (Bristol City ALWAYS concede in the last minute!!!), Ric Pardoe 33 (6) sneaked away with the £20 prize all thanks to not actually predicting 3 of Sunday’s games and the aforementioned default score seeing him over the line…

Congrats Ricardo, going with your head rather than heart on the Stockport game really paid off too mate!

 

 

You Got Me”:

Gawd! A raft of casualties this week…actually, it was complete carnage.

Thirty two punters failed to reach the 15 points mark.

Thirteen (!) didn’t register a correct score.   * Miguel Almiron emoji *

A Famous Five didn’t make double figures (Timmy did though!)

Martin Stafford 7 (0) magnanimously spared the blushes of the other four by literally being on the beach on his jollies without a (PAS) care in the world…

At least you’re above the scousers now though Mr S…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Wow…most popular score was Everton’s 1-1 draw with Nottm Forest– 17 of youse got that!

Sixteen were well away with the 0-3 away win for Arsenal

5 saw their typos come good on the game at Old Trafford

Five more got the dull-all at Deepdale

4 lapped up the injury time joy of Fulham 3 Brentford 2

Anders H, Darren McC & my Mum thrilled at the thrilling Palace 3 Villa 1

Mike K & Orla McK (welcome!) landed on the two-two in Edinburgh. The right side of Edinburgh…

Sam O got the 0-2 Seagulls win over West Ham

Ben H was all over the Green nil-three to Plymouth at The New Lawn Stadium

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Justin Corliss for his I-love-a-greasy-chip-butty inspired, Sheffield Utd 3 Blackburn 0!

Bet of the Week:

Dan Clarke was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 1 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

He went for a Friday night dinner, and…

Yes!

“Monchengladbach to beat Hertha Berlin- aaaahhhhhh, yes

Lyon to beat Troyes – aaaahhhhhhhh, yes

Millwall to draw at Norwich” – ooooooh, no

So, £1.51 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd  – it’s a start!

Richard Hirst is at 60th this week….

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

They can be any choice you want btw – BTTS? Goalscorers? A mixture??!

They don’t even have to be football! Horses? American Football? Golf?? Strictly??! Actually…

 

 

Table News:

 

Hate On Me”:  Hira Yonzan stays top 2 points ahead of Andy K who, in turn, is five points ahead of debutant Paul F in third.

 

Five crashed the Top Ten.

 

A Long Walk”:  Ooops! Eddie Osborne remains bottom of the pile four points behind Chris D who, in turn, is 1 point off Damian H…

 

The Way”:  Highest climber this week, up a whopping 54 places is Ric Pardoe – honourable mentions go to Ben McK (+44), Jack B (+38), Ben H (+28), Dom W (+22), Rowan M (+24), Jazz S (+44), Rob C (+28), Nick H (+33), Luke S (+31), John K (+24), Julian F (+20) and Mr 2-0 (+26)

 

Gettin’ In The Way”: Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 47 places is Martin Stafford – dishonourable mentions go to Dave N (-38), Pete B (-38), John D (-41), Dan M (-45), Samantha R (-30), Matthew S (-25), Predictz (-33, Richard H (-26), Gareth M (-25), Simon Lindq (-24), Lee F (-24), George T (-30) and Scott H (-25)

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’22 Week 1 round up

This canary avoided the coalmine last season…can you take his crown?

 

 

Xanadu:

We’re back! With a bang!

No, not Arsenal – PAS!

Given the quick smart sharpness of this update, I could’ve waxed lyrical about “trusting the process”, that handshake, the genius of Paddy Vieira and then gone deep into the absurdness of that “offside” rule…

But I won’t.

I’ll cut to the chase as it was all about the “The Seven” this week – and we had a right ol’ ding dong for top spot in Week 1!

One Man Yoo fan quite clearly not following “The Ten (Hag)” dictum this weekend was Hira Yonzan 45 (7) who had a London injury time double (Dieng 92′ & Kane 96′) to thank for 10 points that looked to have gone…and then won him the weekly prize!

Spare a thought for Andy K who got very close after getting off to a flyer on Saturday morning, but then Sunday didn’t shine…

 

So, congrats Mr Y, £20 winging its way back to you ASAP – should secure you one of those “Glazers Out” banners  *cheesy grin emoji*

 

 

Don’t Stop Believin’:

Did you score 30 points + this week? Wow, we’re in awe…

Twenty-one of you managed that, but 12 punters couldn’t manage more than 15 points this week  – and ten couldn’t muster a correct score!

Shocking.

Not as shocking as not hitting double digits though, right?

Ahem…

Three unfortunates managed this abject achievement but it’s Eddie Osborne  7 (0),  who finds himself in the wooden spoon slot on the opening week…

 

‘Ed up son!

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

I want to howl at the moon…most popular score was Man City’s 4-0 drubbing of AFC Bournemouth– 34(!) of youse got that!

 

Seventeen felt Fergie vibes when that Harry Kane 96th minute goal secured a 5 pointer 2-2 at Chelsea

11 got QPR’s late “Desmond” with Sunderland

Eleven more quite rightly predicted the Teddy Bears’ 4-0 thrashing of St Johnstone

8 nailed Middlesbrough 2 Sheff Utd 2

Six snaffled up the 5 points served up by Southampton & Leeds

4 had their secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at Molineux

Rob C & Lisa W (welcome!) somehow stumbled on Liverpool 1 Palace 1 (how????)

Anders H & Danny B (welcome back!) had Huddersfield’s 3-1 win over Stoke

Sam A doffed a cap to Celtic’s 0-5 deconstruction of Kilmarnock

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and current Correct Score of the Season, goes to Greg Fleming for his I-used-to-frequent-the-Den-and-you-don’t-want-to-go-two-up-there inspired, Millwall 3 Coventry 2!

 

Bet of the Week:

So, we’ve failed quite spectacularly in the last few seasons on this – actually, we’ve always failed.

But last season, we did alright. Welllllll, alright(ish)…

So!

We’re being brave and we’re gonna stick with it to see how we go!

How?

Whoever is on the “Bet of the Week” position for the following week will be asked to provide a treble selection so we can place the allocated £3 for the bet.

The winnings will stay on that slot and collected by the lucky person residing there at the end of Week 13.

Got that? No?!

OK…

The person on 83rd will make the selections for Week 2, the person on 60th in Week 2 will make the selections for Week 3,the person on 45th in Week 3 will make the selections for Week 4 and the person on 33rd in Week 4 will make the selections for Week 5 and back round again to 83rd…yeah?!

Good.

So, Dan Clarke is first up.

Danielsan, I need your 3 selections by Friday please! It can be homes, aways or draws. It doesn’t have to be football! It can be horses! Or dogs! Or fighting crickets! But not cricket…that’s a step too far!

Let’s get off to a winning start for a change.

 

No pressure mate…

 

 

Table News:

It’s Week 1 – it is what it is! Click here for the full table

Please be aware we lost quite a few players but we can still gain some more (thanks to those of you who recruited the newbies this season – love youse!) – so if you know anyone out there who wants to get involved, put them in touch!

It’s never too late…they’ll get a, ahem<cough>, respectable Mr 2-0 17 pts for Week 1 to boot!

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’22 final table round up

“Colleen”:

So, who won?

Well…a PAS stalwart who has, let’s say, been very much in the shadows since his PAS Cup & PAS World Cup victories back in the day (we won’t mention the “spoon”). One who obviously took it upon himself to be more like 2005 Delia rather than Daniel 2022…and my, how that decision has paid off!

He let his “this-is-how-to-win-a-league-title” weekly performances do the talking for him “on the pitch” as he’s yet to get involved on our What’s App group (tbf, he does run a very readable music “blog” so probably waaay too busy…) and give it some stink eye to The Arse like is the want of everyone on there <rolls eyes>

It was really close, compacted, Covid-free (sort’ve) unfathomable collection of results type of season – whilst Man City just got over the line to the title (CL qualification is overrated btw…) with drama & consistency in the (non) real world, our champion pretty much sung the same (Spursy) tune of “them lot” to his own victory!

A few players kinda threatened to win it, but…

To be honest, it was a case of slowly slowly catchy monkey…and when he was caught, he was held in a vice like grip!

 

Our “Spring” champ started the season at a CL qualifying comfy 30th, then dropped(!) to 33rd, then climbed to 25th in Week 3.

Week 4 he was knocking on the Top Ten door in 11th only to have it slammed in his face, jettisoned to a season low 34th spot. Blimey…

The climb began again, going up to 27th in Week 5 and then back up to 11th the week after.

This time the door opened, and he swept into 2nd before dropping back to 4th in Week 9

Week 10 saw the rise to the summit. And there he stayed, doggedly keeping all challengers at bay to take the title

Mustard!

 

So, be upstanding lords, ladies & gents and doff your caps to Ben Hogwood 354 (48) – He. Is. A. Winner!

Bravo Benjamin – Jeremy Goss, Steven Fry, Olivia Coleman, Cathy Dennis and Kevin Keelan have all sent telegrams of congratulations…

 

Uncle Ben won by a comfortable 7 points from the omnipresent Pete Brittonin second place.

And he finished two points ahead of a fabulous debut from John Nunns in third spot.

Neil Meredith was a further 1 point behind in the not too shabby 4th berth, with Andy Fowler 3 points shy in 5th, both proudly flying the “Top Scouse Season, Red or Blue” banner together for once…  : )

Just two points further back, Anders Hoglund can reflect on a rare season at such great heights finishing in sixth spot – and keeping it Swedish, Simon Lindquist followed up in 7th just another 1 point behind.

In eighth place (only 2 points back) was “First Lady” Kate Slee, further endorsing & repping “Girl Power!”.

Dan Wayman was another three points behind in 9th.

And not unlike Citeh, Andy Chesworth just edged out PAS Old skooler Jamie Sellers courtesy of a correct score in 10th…a most excellent season Andrew!

 

 

“Rebekah”: 

Only 14 points, but 44 places, separated our new champion from Patricia Fernandez 220 (19) in Week 1!

 

Starting in 74th, my mum never really recovered.

Like a model run to wooden spoon legend, it was then to 78th, next down to 84th, down again to 87th then the final drop to 9oth in Week 5!

And there she stayed, peering up to (but not quite getting on the tails of) the likes of Tim P, grandson Greg F, Will O and Joanne McK…

Week 12 saw a sliver of hope when she climbed to 88th and left a fighting chance to NOT collect the spoon!

And then, the final fall…securing the wooden spoon for an unprecedented third time.

What was that?

Yes.

The Board will commission a gold spoon to mark this historic occasion!

 

Spot Prizers

Ok, YOU have finished on these positions AND you HAVE won those prizes!

Jason Morris on 13th, Jazz Sian on 17th, Norman Lee on 23rd, Ric Pardoe & Dan Clarke on 27th, Chris Webber on 33rd, Moi (yay!) on 39th, Paul Carter on 42nd, Sam Arora on 45th, Bijay Lama on 56th, Neil Templeton on 57th, Reagon Karki on 60th, Lee Ford on 65th, Hira Yonzan on 71st, Eddie Osborne on 83rd, and Tim Payne on 88th – small victories kids, but victories just the same!

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’22 Week 13 round up

“Joey de-con-struction…”

 

Chico:

“One child grows up to be, somebody that just loves to learn…”

Another up close and personal week to end the season, with 10 punters breaching the thirty points mark.

But, intrigue came cos it was the “not yer usual” contenders that made the story.

Which probably goes some way to explain the ridiculous scorelines that came in this week….

Rowan M was up there! Ryan G was up there! Howard T was up there! I was in nosebleed territory with a heady 38 points – with a couple of 90th minute goals that made my brain spin and gave licence to dream of a weekly win..

However, opening and closing with 2 x 9 pointers (courtesy of injury time goals in both games to boot!), Greg Fleming 45 (5) stole the show and the booty!

 

Sly moves nephew – you better buy me a beer with that £20!

 

 

Grey Days:

“Come on, everybody get on up, ‘Cause you know we gots to get it crunk…”

Once again, some decent “rubbish” scores at the other end as only five players failed to reach 15 points.

Just 4 didn’t register a correct score with Sam A grtful for the one he did notch!

So, Patricia Fernandez 11 (0) finished bottom yet again as the cavalier attitude to form and league position continues to all but guarantee yet another wooden spoon – I think the next one is gold one!

 

Sorry Mother, that’s more bilge than Blige…

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Yessssssss…most popular score was Blackburn’s 1-2 win at Birmingham – 25 of youse got that!

 

Seven quite rightly predicted City’s 5-0 (oil) slick thrashing of Newcastle

4 bribed Dave & Dan to tinker with the PAS timelapse cog in the back end and waltzed off with WBA 4 Barnsley 0

Four more thrilled at the thrilling Celtic 4 Hearts 1

Kate S believed in Bournemouth. A 1-0 kinda belief…

Howard T doffed a cap to Wrexham’s 3-0 deconstruction of Stockport County

Howard T (again!) just knew Burnley would score against Villa for a 1-3

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Luke Stafford for his I-always-try-to-finish-on-double-two-even-on-PAS inspired, Chelsea 2 Wolves 2!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Lee Taylor was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 12 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

 

It was a “no-show”

 

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd leaving it on a springy £13.33!

 

 

Great effort from all our BoTWers this season.

Say it quietly, but I think we may be onto something here…but I always say that, don’t I….

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Three crashed the Top Ten.

 

Seems Fine”:  

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 24 places, is Me! – honourable mentions go to Greg F (+10), Howard T (+15), Ryan G (+18), Matthew Stafford (+12) and Andy Kelly (+11)

 

Say Something New:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 17 places, is Sam Arora – dishonourable mentions go to Dom W (-13), and Lily T (-13)

 

 

PAS Cup 2022:

Semi Finals ties went ahead this week…

 

It. Was. Really. Dramatic!

 

We had 1 successful joker! And, amazingly, 1 draw!

Matthew Murphy dispatched Mike K 20 (2) to 15 (0) to take his place in the Final.

But the only successful “joker” of four earned Chris D a draw against Mark S in a 25 (3) all draw!

It went to extra time (9 games on Wednesday) and, amazingly, that ended 12(1) all causing much consternation at PAS Towers.

So, a hastily arranged inaugural penalty shoot out took place last night over 5 very random games (yes, including THAT derby…) –  and Mark Seels emerged the winner by 5(1) – 4 (0).

Now that was a Cup tie!

 

Commiserations to the losers – the £30 should see you right though eh?!)

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’22 Week 12 round up

“Oooh, that scouse wit…”

 

Bombtrack:

Jeepers!

Week 12 proved to be one of the best (ever?) PAS weeks in a long long time. It was success across the board and the £20 weekly prize has never felt so well earned!

Twenty five of you scored a sound 30 points or more but the scrap at the top of the pile was mired in injury time joy & pain – a-Maze-ing!

Simon B chipped into the challenge with last minute correct scores thanks to Coventry and Wilf at Southampton, only to find he was undone by Sheff U the night before.

John N saw Palace, Villa and Leicester gift him 13 points at 90+ minutes. Alas, Sheff U and Coventry did for him…

Howard T probably rushed out to put his numbers on as Sheff U (94’), Palace (91’), Villa (93’) and Stoke (94’) netted a hefty 18 last minute points haul. Alas, Coventry’s 91st minute consolation ended that witchcraft…

Martin S crept up on the blind side benefiting from Coventry’s goal but ultimately rueing Sheffield Utd’s 94th minute, totally unnecessary, cherry on the cake third on Friday night.

So, that left our winner ironically cursing Zaha’s 91st minute winner AND that Coventry goal but revelling in an ex-City striker landing a super Sunday 5 points at Spurs in the 91st minute!

Pete Britton 39 (6) you’ve Kelechi Iheanacho to thank for putting you that vital point clear – you know his middle name is Promise, right?!

 

 

Back in the real world where last minute goals ALWAYS go against you (yes, I know I got the Spurs one this week but, really, you should see the list of last minute crimes against good honest correct scores I’ve got written down in RED PEN AND UNDERLINED!) it was a chore as usual.

Five PASers couldn’t get more than 15 points and four people didn’t record a single correct score (imagine!)

On a bum note, bringing up the rear this week is the guitar strumming Rowan Marriott 13 (0).

Roland! You need to get out of your shed, fella!

 

Correct Score of the Week:

My word…most popular score was Tottenham’s 3-1 win over Leicester – 22 of us got that!

 

Twenty got Millwall 3 Peterborough 0

7 lapped up the injury time joy of Middlesbro 3 Stoke 1

Five(!) doffed a cap to City’s 0-4 deconstruction of Dirty Leeds

4 nabbed the form book upsetting Man Utd 3 Brentford 0

Four more got the 1-3 PNE win over Barnsley

Ben McK & Howard T were well away with the 1-3 away win for Sheff U

Nick H & Mike K somehow stumbled on Sheff Wed 4 Portsmouth 1 (how????)

Kate S made us all green by happening upon Newcastle 0-1 Liverpool

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Best Correct Score of the Season, goes to Greg Fleming for his if-I-continue-to-commit-to-mad-scores-then-mad-scores-will happen inspired, Nottingham Forest 5 Swansea City 1!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Martin Stafford was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 10 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

Danny Ashworth 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?!

 

Martin’s left field darts selection went West…

Michael van Gerwen to beat James Wade – missed the board

Joe Cullen to beat Gerwyn Price – hit the wire and bounced out

Jonny Clayton to beat Peter wright – bullseye

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th leaving it on £3 – meh.

 

Danny, on the other hand, smashed in a full house!

“Let’s banish the curse of the early kick off…”

Liverpool to win at Newcastle – tick

Preston to win at Barnsley – tick

Sheff Wed to dispatch Pompey – boom!

So, £10.85 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th leaving it on £21.42 – finally, the dream for the BotW slot is realised!!

 

Lee Taylor is at 33rd this week….

 

Mr T, I need your 3 team selection by Friday evening, please!

 

Let’s go out as we meant to go on!

 

 

Table News:

 

Freedom:

Ben Hogwood still has top spot, but now only a retrievable (?) 5 points ahead of debutant John N, who in turn is three points clear of Pete B in third…

 

One crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

Know Your Enemy:

Tim Payne slides one place to the bottom, six points behind Joanne McK, who in turn is 2 correct scores off Patricia F

Go on Mum! Show ‘em that Katie Taylor isn’t the only girl from Bray who can scrap!

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’22 Week 11 round up

“Mate…”

 

New Sensation:

Well, that was a weekend, eh?

My mate Granit slamming in a worldy to put Man Yoo to bed?! As Thom Yorke would say, “for a minute there, I lost myself..”

Meanwhile, after falling back down from Cloud 9, the predictions game, for most of us, still proved harder than scoring from 12 yards.

Only 11 punters scored 30 points or more and from that melee, our weekly £20 prize winner emerged with perhaps the lowest winning score ever (Dan! Dave! Run the SQLs!)

Tom Wooldridge-Stevens 35 (5) edged home virtue of a point given to him by the correctly predicted WBA shut out or the Millwall 98th minute eqaulising penalty or Chelsea’s 90th minute face saving winner.

Which one Tom?

And well done on your second-in-a-season taste of prize money!

 

Bitter Tears:

So, it was grim at the top, so what about the bottom?

You could argue it wasn’t all bad as only FOUR players scored 15 points or less.

Five managed zero correct scores.

But this meant Justin Corliss 13 (0) brought up the rear with probably the highest worst weekly score ever. (Dan! Dave…)

Unlucky J!

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Weirdly, it was all quite good…most popular score was Swansea’s 1-1 draw with Middlesbro – 19 of us got that!

 

Seventeen just knew Motherwell would score against Rangers for a 1-3

11 revelled in the Xhaka schadenfreude of Arsenal’s also-ran Cup Final victory over Utd

Seven got Brighton’s “Desmond” with JWP

Joanne McK & TomW-S got the dull-all at The Hawthorns

Matt W & Sam A thrilled at the thrilling Dundee Utd 2 Hearts 3

Neil O banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt Birmingham & Millwall

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Best Correct Score of the Season, goes to Mike Krasnowski for his children’s-laughter-not-screams-is-the-energy inspired, Man City 5 Watford 1!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Martin Stafford was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 10 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

He went way left field with a darts selection, which is great, but the matches aren’t til Thursday!

So we’ll have a double update next week…

 

 

Danny Ashworth is at 45th this week….

 

Danielsan, I need your 3 team selection by Friday evening, please!

 

You get another go to make amends….

 

 

Table News:

 

Taste It:

Ben Hogwood stays top of the shop, now 7 points ahead of Simon Lindq, who in turn is three points clear of Anders H

 

Three crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

Disappear:

Patricia Fernandez is still bottom, but now only one point behind Tim P, who in turn is 1 point off Greg F

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’22 Week 10 round up

“Let the train cause the pain…”

 

Touched By The Hand Of Cicciolina:

Usually I have to spend hours (HOURS!) thinking up clever, witty ways to break the news how the week was won, do actual research into who predicted what & source which last minute goal tipped the scales in whose favour…yep, it’s hard work over this side folks!

Well, I managed a week off this week as Richard Hirst 38 (6) absolutely walked it this week leaving his nearest rival a good 7 points in his wake! £20 coming your way Tricky – 96th minute consolation goals at MK Dons, eh?!!

 

ps – 4 bods got 30 points or more…

 

Wise Up! Sucker:

Innit ‘oribble when Mr 2-0 beats your weekly score after you’ve toiled & laboured for hours (HOURS!) when a simple default would’ve sufficed. The “default” got 23 points this week – that’s eleven more than me – hmmmppph!

Still, our man Down Under, Paul Carter 8 (0) did the decent thing and defaulted the blushes of Joanne McK

Bet his galahs are flaming though…

 

ps – 9 poor souls got zero correct scores

 

Correct Score of the Week:

We might as well change this game to “predict-a-XP Goals”…most popular score was Brentford’s 1-2 win at Watford – 24 of youse got that!

 

Four got the dull-all in Boscombe

Four more somehow stumbled on Man City 2 Liverpool 3 (how????)

Ben McK & Richard H thrilled at the thrilling MK Dons 2 Sheffield Wednesday 3

Martin S revelled in the schadenfreude of Arsenal’s poor poor show

Luke S revelled in the schadenfreude of Spurs being Spurs

Frankie F nabbed the form book upsetting Stoke 0 Bristol City 1

Gareth M lapped up the injury time joy of Sheff Utd 1 Reading 2

Reagon K was all over the Bank Holiday Monday 0-3 to the Bournemouth

Neil C celebrated the bore draw between Plymouth & Sunderland

Justin C got Huddersfield’s “Desmond” with QPR

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Norman Lee for his he’s-gonna-do-it-again-isn’t-he inspired, CR7 3 Norwich 2!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Frankie Fernandez was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 9 so we asked her to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

The phone’s gone…

“I’m going for 3 draws cos “wins” are boring –
Palace-Chelsea
City – Liverpool
Hull – Cardiff”

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd leaving it on £0.93 – ooops!

 

Damian H & Martin S are at 60th this week….first out the hat was Martin!

 

Mr S, I need your 3 team selection by Friday evening, please!

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’22 Week 9 round up

“Congrats Unai, you’ve passed your audition…what? Oh.”

 

Wet Dream:

Sorry, yes, I know, i’m very late AGAIN this week,  so i’ll cut to the chase…

Only five punters scored 30 points or more perfectly illustrating what a rubbish week it was.

One Swede (not a turnip!) took full advantage as the rest of us had a “fika moment” though, courtesy of the 93rd minute penalty for QPR at PNE. Those four points and made all the difference!

Simon Lindquist 39 (6), spending your second of the season £20 weekly prize on delights from the smorgasbord?!

 

Oh No:

Meanwhile, it was as equally abject at the other end of the table.

Twenty one players couldn’t break the 15 point marker and nine couldn’t muster a correct score.

It was a twin effort of maximum failure though this week, with Simon (not that one, this one) Lindsay and Greg Fleming 8 (0) begging for more at the soup kitchen of points…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Ugh…most popular score was Swansea’s 2-1 win over Derby– 26 of youse got that!

 

Seventeen banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt City & Liverpool

Nine landed on  the two-two in Dundee. The right side of Dundee…

6 were grateful for the 3-1 Jambo win over Hibs

Six more made us all green by happening upon St Mirren 0-4 Rangers

Bijay L believed in Hull. A 0-1 kinda belief…

Luke S nabbed the form book upsetting Everton 1 Man Utd 0

Anders H nailed Livingston 2 Motherwell 2

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Matt Worsfold for his you-look-neat-talk-about-a-treat inspired, Port Vale 3 Oldham 2!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Mark Seels was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 8 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

I think he got confused.

“Arsenal, Leeds & Burnley to finish in the Top 3 of the Grand National! Or, all to win…”
Arsenal – we’ve gone all Spursy
Leeds – they’ve gone all Barcy
Burnley – they’ve gone down..hopefully

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd leaving it on £10.33 – shame.

 

Francesca Fernandez is at 83rd this week….

 

Frankie, I need your 3 team selection tomorrow, please!

 

If you don’t win i’m taking your phone off you for 78 days…

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’22 Week 8 round up

“Congrats Paddy, you’ve passed your final audition…”

 

Oh Yeah:

Sorry, yes, I know, i’m very late this week so i’ll cut to the chase…

Only eight punters scored 30 points or more this week so it was tight at the top.

One canary (in a goalmine!) flew highest though via the 99th & 90th minute goals at Coventry & Peterborough respectively. They combined to give him a whopping 13 points and made all the difference!

Ben Hogwood 38 (5) spending your £20 weekly prize on a delight from Delia?!

 

Both Ends Burning:

Meanwhile, it was equally as tight at the other end of the table.

Sixteen players could break the 15 point marker and seven couldn’t muster a correct score.

It was a triptych of abject failure though this week, with Jason (or is it Tony?) Morris, Rich Lee and my mum 11 (0) choking and gasping for air…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Scant…most popular score was Derby’s 1-0 win over PNE – 19 of us got that!

Six turned up Brighton 0 Norwich 0. Then sobbed a little bit as he thought of those poor souls who were actually there.

5 nailed Coventry 2 Blackburn 2

Ben H & Reagon K somehow stumbled on Peterborough 0 Middlesbro 4 (how????)

Richard H & David G said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for their Bournemouth 3 Bristol City 2

Dom W landed on  the two-two in Dundee. The wrong side of Dundee…

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Paul Carter for his I-predict-a-riot inspired, Luton 2 Millwall 2!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Ric Pardoe was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 7 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

We’re gonna build a statue of this lad!

Another full house from the Stockport Selector…

“I’ve backed these three with the remaining 97p in my William Hill (other money draining bookies are available) account…”
Mansfield to beat Northampton – nervy 1-0
Sunderland to beat Gillingham – very nervy 1-0, 95th minute winner!
Halifax to beat Wealdstone – Mr 2-0 was on it”

So, £10.62 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th – whoop whoop!

 

Mark Seels is at 33rd this week….

 

Seelsy, I need your 3 team selection by Friday, please!

 

This is the “The Syndicate’s” game – can you be like Ric ?!

 

 

Table News:

Pete Britton leaps 4 places to the top, 2 points ahead of Ben H, who in turn is four points clear of Simon B & John N

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’22 Week 7 round up

 “Avengers end game…”

 

This Is A Call:

‘Twas a thrilling week so it ’twas (no, I don’t know why i’m speaking like that either…) and most thrilled (of the 30 who 30 point plussed) was Neil Meredith 41 (7) who just sneaked past the unlucky Dom W (thanks to that late Portuguese goal on Thursday!) to lay claim to this week’s £20. 

Well done la, a fine win in a bizarre but enjoyable International Week!

Runcorn and her triptych of bridges will be so proud …#wool

 

Monkey Wrench:

Meanwhile, at the other end of the table, the quest to bridge the gap was  in vain.

Only 7 didn’t notch a correct score though!

However, a sub 15 point score this week is going to hurt you…

 

Tim Payne 11 (0) must be in stitches…#ouch!

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

And breathe…most popular score was Argentina’s 3-0 win over Venezuela– 24 of youse got that!

 

Fourteen got the very annoying last minute spoiling (but also very pleasing) Portugal 3 Turkey 1

7 got the dull-all for Doha in Accra

Six banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt Hartlepool & Mansfield

4 got 4 goal demolition of Chile by Brazil

Paul C celebrated the bore draw between Bradford & Newport

Mike K had his secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate in Stockholm

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Bijay Lama for his there’s-a-moose-loose-about-this-hoose inspired, Canada 4 Jamaica 0!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Dom Webber was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 6 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

 

He was either off foraging for Spurs v Toon tickets and forgot or was keeping his spot on predictions for himself!
He’s a lovely lad — I hope he got his tickets…

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th – up and running!

 

 

Danny Ashworth & Ric Pardoe are at 45th this week….first out the hat was the “hot on National League”, Ric P!

 

Ricardo, I need your 3 team selection by Friday, please!

PAS Champions League 2022-23:

“Remember, kids, violence is never the answer, especially if it’s going to subject everyone to a full week of hot takes, polarised op-eds and memes. Oh Will! How could you! The Fiver is also sad that the incident has instantly become the most famous and notorious on-stage hand-jaw-interface scenario in history, eclipsing that time Jerry Sadowitz took to the stage in Montreal and opened with “I tell you why I hate Canada, half of you speak French, and the other half let them” with predictable consequences…” – The Fiver

 

 

Twitter is dead & so is Instagram – but we’ve got a What’s App group!

Wanna join?

Why?

Well, I send round reminders that you don’t have to check your email for.

Erm…some people are quite funny (some are annoying) & hopefully, we’ll get some good pics of away fans at games.

We will crush any “hilarious GIFs” though…

Plus, you can gloat when you land that 9 pointer in the 91st minute!

Email me over your number and i’ll add ya ([email protected])
