PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’23 Week 4 round up

Dazzler…

 

 

 

Help Yourself:

You know times are strange when Spurs are top, Harry Maguire is playing and I score 33 points in a 26 game week…

 

Yep, what was a potential nightmare point-gathering round proved just otherwise, as 22 of us scored more than thirty points!

Richard H threatened briefly thanks to a 92nd minute equaliser at his beloved Forest, Matthew S nearly came good with “Super Sunday” show and Sam O went close, boasting a Glaswegian nine-pointer in his points haul…

Out front this week though, collecting his second weekly win of the season, was Andy Fowler 40 (7).

A mixed emotions kinda week for our Toffee especially as Mo Salah’s 97th minute penalty proved to be the correct score that edged his weekly win!

 

Was you willing that one to go in Andy?! Was you?!! Come on, be honest now…

 

 

 

You Know I’m No Good:

Even at the other end, 4 postponements didn’t really wreak the havoc it could’ve.

 

Only six punters failed to breach 15 points.

Only 2 didn’t register a correct score.

Only No one finished with less than a double-digit tally.

 

Unfortunately for you Debbie Lee 10 (0), you were the one propping everyone else up…

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Didn’t we do well…most popular score was Leicester’s 1-3 win at Swansea – 28 of youse got that!

 

Eleven (!) thrilled at the thrilling Hearts 1 Celtic 4

9 we’re so happy for Chelsea 2-2 Arsenal they will actually wear that ballet dress…

Greg F, Matthew S & John D doffed a cap to Brentford’s 3-0 deconstruction of Burnley

Neil O, Bijay L & Jasper M quite rightly predicted Rangers’ 4-0 thrashing of Hibs

Jazz S, Mark S & Moi put you all to shame by predicting Norwich City 2 Leeds United 3

Rich L & Chris D had Newcastle’s merciless deconstruction of Crystal Palace

Ben McK was grateful for the 3-1 Killy win over Livvy

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Justin Corliss for his I-will-defy-the-odds-and-back-the-Hatters inspired, Nottm Forest 2 Luton Town 2!

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

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

 

And guess what?!

“Just read you need a treble, sorry I missed it last time…
I’ll have Leeds, Wrexham & Morecambe”
Leeds – 85th minute yes!
Morecambe – 91st minute yes!
Wrexham – no…
Nice away selections that so nearly gave us a full house – come back soon G!

So, £4.77 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th – fab!

 

 

Dom Webber & Simon Buxton are at 33rd this week – Dom was first out of the hat, so…

 

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

 

Let’s keep this going!

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’23 Week 3 round up

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?!

It was another no-show – tbf, it was International Week so I don’t blame him really…

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!

 

 

 

 

 

I’m So Lonely:

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>

 

 

 

 

 

 

Guiding Star:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 58 places is Dilip Adhikari – honourable mentions go to Paul C (+47), John K (+33), Rob C (+48), Pete B (+47), Matthew M (+31), and Ben H (+39).

 

 

 

 

Sandstorm:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 44 places are Dan Hogwood & Orla McKeown – dishonourable mentions go to Sam O (-33), Dickie H (-32), Ric P (-34), Roshan T (-34), and Paul F (-30)

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’23 Week 2 round up

Double bubble!

 

 

 

Fine Time:

If you felt like you had a good chance of winning this week (yes, Frankie did her own scores this week…), you probably felt about right!

It was a scrunched-up week with 11 punters scoring over thirty points and they were all vying for the £20 prize right to the end…

Nick H, Gareth M, Hira Y and Deepak B were all within striking distance but just failed for too many reasons for me to list here (soz).

That left two out front – one benefitting from late goals at West Ham & Fulham and the other from a 90th minute 3rd for Rangers.

However, it was a 102nd minute miss that took from one and gave to another.

Andy Fowler & Neil Templeton 37 (6) share the spoils this week as Olly Watkins saved Andy the four points he predicted, and, denied Neil the four points he needed to claim victory for himself…

 

Wowsers.

 

Congrats chaps – a tenner each coming your way…i’d stick it on young Oliver scoring on his England debut!

 

 

 

 

Blue Monday:

Meanwhile…

 

Fifteen players scored 15 points or less at the other end.

9 didn’t register a correct score.

One didn’t break double figures.

 

Danny Ashworth 9 (0) must be feeling a bit Brentfordy right now…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Bumper week for many…most popular score was Man Utd’s 2-1 win over Brentford – 26 of us got that!

 

 

Fifteen banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt Brighton & Liverpool

12 had Celtic’s 3-1 win over Kilmarnock

Eleven got Brighton’s “Desmond” with Liverpool

10 had the very annoying last minute spoiling Fulham 3 Sheff Utd 1

Ten more just knew St Mirren wouldn’t score against Rangers for a 0-3

8 landed on the two-two in Edinburgh. The wrong side of Edinburgh…

Seven nailed Millwall 2 Hull 2

6 got the dull-all at Hillsborough

David G, Sam O & Lily T had their secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at Selhurst Park

Ben McK & Deepak B nabbed the form book upsetting Everton 3 Bournemouth 0

Norman L had Wrexham to keep a clean sheet for a o-1 at Crawley

Bijay L put us all to shame by predicting Southampton 1 Rotherham 1

Dom W lapped up the late show joy of Arsenal 1 Man City 0

David G (again) got the 1-3 Swansea win over Plymouth

Martin S turned up Aberdeen 0 St Johnstone 0. Then sobbed a little bit as he thought of those poor souls who were actually there.

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Stephen Peaston for his I’m-still-buzzing-about-that-PSG-drubbing-so-i’m-going-with-mad-scores inspired, Burnley 1 Chelsea 4!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Gary Mitchell 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?!

It was a no-show – maybe Phil & Grant “advised” against gambling…

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd – very acceptable, me thinks…

 

 

Stuart Fitzsimon is at 60th this week….

 

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

 

Bon chance!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

True Faith:

All change at the top, Gareth Morgan goes all Spursy opening a lead of 2 points ahead of Frankie F who, in turn, is two points ahead of Pawan GC in third…

 

 

Four crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

Shellshock:

All change at the bottom, Darren McCarthy slides to the basement slot, one point behind the inseparable Danny A, Charlie H & Julian F

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Perfect Kiss:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 67 places is Neil Templeton – honourable mentions go to Andy F (+50), Hira Y (+53), Nick H (+56), Deepak B (+62), Predictz (+50), and Norman L (+42).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nothing But A Fool:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 52 places is Thomas Stafford – dishonourable mentions go to Greg F (-38), John J (-37), Debbie L (-46), Emma T (-38), Elliot D (-36), and Chris D (-39)

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’23 Week 1 round up

Ola!, i’m Number One…

 

 

 

Only You:

We’re back! With a bang!

No, not Arsenal – PAS!

 

Anyway…

I’ll cut to the chase (sort’ve) as it was all about The Girls this week – and, 4 of the 7 we have signed up this season finished 11th or higher – go girls!

Emma T made an impressive return to the fold and Debbie L has probably got a nosebleed being so high in the Top Ten.

Kate S continues to use the resources at her disposal to great effect but was denied the £20 weekly prize by a girl who has perfected the art of “getting things done” –  for her…

 

Friday after school :

“Frankie, you need to do your scores, it’s Week 1 and you’re in the CL this season!”

“Cool! Yeah, will do..”

Friday 19:57 :

No scores entered so I put 0-3 for her based on my 0-4 prediction…

Saturday 09:00 :

“You didn’t do your score last night but still got 5 points, make sure you do your scores when you’re back from drama…”

“Cool! Yeah, will do…”

Saturday 12:15 :

No scores entered so I do her scores for her based on her normal, “the higher placed team will beat the lower placed team by one goal unless they’re away, then it will be draw” method + not replicating any of my scores

Monday 22:00 :

I limp home with a score less than Mr 2-0 (having been denied a correct score at least twice thanks to 90th min+ goals) and Frankie Fernandez rocks up with 44 (9)

NINE CORRECT SCORES!!! I’ve never got 9 correct scores EVER!

And when I do, they’re not for me…

I hate PAS.

 

Ahem, congrats lovely daughter, £20 (that I paid anyway) winging its way back to you my darling…

I’m sure you’ll spend it wisely.

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t Go:

Did you score 25 points+ this week?

Wow, we’re in awe…

Eighteen of you managed that but 18 punters couldn’t manage more than 15 points this week  – and four couldn’t muster a correct score.

Shocking.

Not as shocking as the 2 that didn’t break double figures this week though!

Darren McC was spared big blushes courtesy of another scouse tragedy – yep, Mark Seels 7 (0) – it really was a weekend to forget mate…

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Proper mad scores this week…most popular score was Nottingham Forest’s 1-1 draw with Brentford – 27 of us got that!

 

Six were all over the 0-3 to the Sunderland on Friday night

5 (FIVE!) thrilled at the thrilling Wrexham 3 Crewe 3

Martin S, Matt M & Luke S decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards at Hibs. And they did…

Howard T, Sam A & Chris D were well away with the 1-3 away win for Oxford Utd

Paul V & Debbie L were grateful for the 3-1 Southampton win over Leeds Utd

Ben McK & Matthew S revelled in the schadenfreude of Arsenal’s late late show at Bournemouth

Roshan T will shout out loud about the humbling of Everton by Luton Town

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Will Oppong for his I-like-rugby-and-this-was-always-going-to-be-trying-for-Rovers inspired, Blackburn 1 Leicester City 4!

 

 

 

 

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, newbie Gary Mitchell is first up.

Mr M, 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..

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 final table round up

“Pep Talk”:

So, who won?

Well, I think you all guessed…

Letting the “this-is-how-to-win-a-league-title” weekly performances do the talking “on the pitch” and opting to stay away from our What’s App group (erm, the rest of youse are all on that aren’t you?!) paid dividends (yet again!) despite missing out on giving it pelters to the “bottlers”, as is the want of everyone on there…<shakes fist & sobs>

And, it was another pretty close, compacted & competitive season.

Whilst Citeh smoothly glided (glode?) their way to the Treble with their robotic belief & consistency in the real world, our champion pretty much emulated Mikel’s “Process” (but actually delivered) in the PAS victory!

A few players kinda threatened to win it, but…nah!

No one got really got that close in the end to a tally that now goes in, with a bullet, as the 14th “best winning score” ever!

To be perfectly frank, it really was an almost perfect campaign…

Our “Spring” champ started the season off at an easy 23rd, before jumping to 1st in Week 2 with a 43 points season high (and weekly win)

And there they remained for the duration…

Jeepers!

Any dips?

No.

Well, bar Week 8, when it was a season low of 15 points…

Week 12 was all about putting any challengers to the sword with a 32 point haul.

 

Now as a fully fledged PAS pro, all challengers were brushed aside with remarkable performance of concentrated consistency!

 

So, lords, ladies & gents, please be upstanding and doff your caps to Dan Wayman 367 (51) – He. Is. A. Winner! Again!!

 

That’s back to back League wins – a first in PAS history!

Bravo Mr W, you’re frightening everyone now…

 

Danny Boy won by a comprehensive 11 points from the “surprise package” Paul Henshaw in second place.

The “Top Syndicator” finished one point ahead of, the much improved, Peter Morley, in third spot.

Charlie Harris was a further four points behind, for yet another Top Ten finish, in the not-too-shabby 4th berth, with Francesca Fernandez 4 points shy in 5th – proudly flying the “Best In Clan” banner by using her wooden spoon from last year to stir up some startling form that also won her £20 from me in a bet about being “Top Girl of the Season” (yes, it really was misery maximus for me!)

Neil Meredith was 5 points behind in sixth spot. How “Liverpoolsy” of you Neil…

Just one correct score further back, Neil Osborne can reflect on a fine season, (2 x weekly wins!), finishing in seventh whilst in eighth place (only 1 point back), was a Spurs fan with something to shout about, Simon Lindsay. And, five points behind him in 9th, was the ever-improving Andy Kelly!

Relieved Evertonian Andy Fowler was just edged out by 2 correct scores, but grabbed 10th spot – courtesy of a single point – from Citizen Andy Chesworth (the casbah was rocked!)

 

 

“Arteta Process”: 

Only 19 points, but 72 places, separated our new champion from our wooden spoon champion, Patricia Fernandez 241 (29) in Week 1!

Mothers, eh?!

Awkward…

 

Starting in 95th, my mum never really recovered.

Like a role model to consistent rubbish scoring, she stayed at 95th in Week 2, then…

Week 3 it was down to the Bottom.

And there she stayed with a season performance like an inverted Dan Wayman.

A ray of hope in Week 11, a season high of 31 points, came to nothing as securing the wooden spoon for a 4th time was already done.

Howard T, John J, Paul V, Lily T and a dazed & confused, hopelessly lost Tony M made gallant efforts over the season to save Tricia’s blushes, but…

 

 

Spot Prizers

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

 

Jasper Marriott on 13th, Kate Slee on 17th, Richard Hirst on 23rd, Orla McKeown on 27th, Rowan Marriott on 33rd, Sam Osmond on 39th, Max Morgan on 42nd, Mr 2-0 on 45th, Stephen Harrison on 57th, Bijay Lama on 60th, Hira Yonzan on 65th, Greg Fleming & Nick Hogwood on 71st, Dilip Adhikari on 83rd, Dom Webber on 89th and John Jennings on 93rd…

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 13 round up

“Proper…”

 

The Lion’s Roar:

This is late due to the PAS Cup semi-final replay.

So cast your mind back to the Coronation weekend…

Actually, don’t. I’ll just get on with the facts.

Only eight players scored 30 points or more in the final week of the season and they all could have won the £20 weekly prize.

In fact, the 10 that left Mr 2-0 in charge of their scores could have won it too.

And yes, all of them beat my score…

So lots of youse can count yourselves unlucky, but it was Peter Morley 33 (6) that came out as top dog with absolutely no luck involved given that 4 of his 6 correct scores were from the Scottish Premiership!

 

McImpressive!

 

 

 

Blue:

And in the final week of the season at the other end, eleven punters failed to get more than 15 points.

Seven didn’t get a correct score (spare a thought for Rowan M with his 18 points!).

One didn’t get into double figures.

 

Tony Morris 8 (0) is on the beach ladies & gents…

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Blimey, that was a week…most popular score was Hibernian’s 2-1 win over St Mirren – 23 of youse got that!

 

Seventeen said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for their Burnley 3 Cardiff 0

7 celebrated the bore draw between Wigan & Rotherham

Five had their secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at Kenilworth Road

Howard T, Justin C & Deepak B nabbed the form book upsetting Bournemouth 1 Chelsea 3

Olly O & Darren McC lapped up the 14 minutes of injury time joy of Exeter 3 Morecambe 2

Richard H just knew Bristol City would keep a clean sheet for a o-2 at QPR

El Presidente celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 1-0 at Anfield

Luke S put us all to shame by predicting Spurs 1 C Palace 0

Paul H believed in Man City. A 2-1 kinda belief…

Dilip A thanked the Lord for Joe Piroe – his 93rd minute goal gifting a whole nine points at Swansea

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Orla McKeown for her I-knew-my-team-could-do-it-and-in-style-too inspired, PNE 0 Sunderland 3!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

 

Ryan Graves 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?!

 

Oh dear.

 

He played it safe with a very conservative top-of-the-table Stirling to win at bottom-placed Albion, promotion-chasing Stockport to beat relegated Hartlepool, and scrambling Cambridge to beat relegated Forest Green…

 

L L W!

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd leaving it on £8.02 – oh well…

 

 

 

 

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:

 

One crashed the Top Ten.

 

My Silver Lining”:  

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 18 places, is David Goggin – honourable mentions go to Darren McC (+12), Jazz S (+18), Scott H (+12), Dan H (+12) and Jack B (+13)

 

Out Of My Head:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 26 places, is Lisa Ward – dishonourable mentions go to Pete B (-17), Matthew S (-17), Rich L (-15) and Sam A (-15)

 

 

PAS Cup 2022:

Semi Finals ties went ahead this week…

 

It. Was. Really. Dramatic!

 

We had 1 successful joker! And, 1 heartbreaker!

Simon Buxton dispatched Andy Kelly 27 (5) to 21 (2) to take his place in the Final.

But the only non-successful “joker” of four meant Jack Buxton earnt a replay against Charlie Harris in a 31 (5) all draw!

It went to extra time (17 games over last weekend) and, amazingly, we finally got a winner. But only just…

Jack Buxton emerged the winner by 16(3) – 15 (3) in a nail-biter to set up a family affair in the Final

Now that was a Cup tie!

 

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

 

Full fixtures & results can be found here

Mwwahhhhahaha…

 

 

Cheers,

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 12 round up

 “Stool…”

 

 

 

 

You Were Right“:

Bit of a classic this week!

Twenty one bods racked up 30 points or more, prompting a proper scrap for the £20 weekly prize…

Paul H put in a good shout with his 95th minute 9 pointer at Sheff Utd and Pete B sprang into life only to see a weekly win disappear as the clock ticked to 93 minutes at Anfield – oooof!

Andy K continued his sparkling form adding another 7 correct scores to his collection.

Only two breached the 40 point mark with Neil O going very close to an unprecedented hat-trick of weekly wins (Dave! Dan! Has that been done before?!) with TWO last minute goals denying him at the death.

That left the classical Ben Hogwood 43 (7) up front & centre like a Proms conductor in full pomp – he too benefitted from Bentford’s last gasp winner, Arsenal taking their foot off the gas and the gall of Rotherham beating play off chasing Boro!

Congrats sir, drop the prim formalities and whistle, stamp & commence the bobbing up and down – you’re a winner!

 

 

Silent Sigh:

From a classic to a near-mythical week as only THREE players failed to score more than fifteen points!

And, only 3 didn’t register a correct score (spare a thought for Andy B on his lonely 18 points though…)

Julian F was denied the obligatory family shaming as our man Down Under, Paul Carter 13 (0), went under…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Jolly good show…most popular score was WBA’s 2-1 win over Norwich  – 28 of youse got that!

 

 

Twenty two believed in Arsenal. A 3-1 kinda belief…

8 were well away with the 0-3 away win for Wednesday

Five were grateful for the 3-1 Toon win over the Saints

4 thrilled at the thrilling Morecambe 3 Lincoln City 2

Neil T, Nick H & Greg F got Leicester’s “Desmond” with Everton

Jamie S, Greg F (again!) & Suman K lapped up the injury time joy of Hartlepool 3 Barrow 1

Bijay L & Matthew M were all over the Scottish Cup Semi Final 0-3 to Super Cally

Eddie O & Jasper M felt “Fergie vibes” when Sunderland’s Patrick Roberts 95th minute goal secured a 5 pointer 2-2 v Watford

Paul H & Lisa W put us all to shame by predicting Sheffield Utd 4 PNE 1

Ben H nabbed the form book upsetting Rotherham 1 Middlesbro 0

Lily T doffed a cap to Celtic’s 1-0 semi-final win over Rangers

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Nick Hogwood for his lower-league-match-talk inspired, Carlisle Utd 2 Salford City 3!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Jason Morris 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?!

He produced!

“Treble mate…Brentford, Brighton, Liverpool –  all BTTS (both teams to score) and win”

 

Brentford – last gasp!

Liverpool – LOL!

Brighton – six goals but none for Wolves!

 

So, £7.55 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th leaving it on £10.55 – bravo!

 

 

Ryan Graves is at 33rd this week….

 

Mi amigo viejo, I need your 3 team treble by Saturday morning, please!

 

Decent amount to build on here sunshine!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Another Pearl:

Dan Wayman is top with a week left & has a lead of 23 points over Paul H who, in turn, is eight points ahead of Simon Linds in third…he’s done it, hasn’t he?!

 

 

Two crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

Once Around The Block:

Patricia Fernandez is bottom, but fighting back, nine points behind Howard T who, in turn, is 6 points off Lily T

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Shining:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 35 places is Ben Hogwood – honourable mentions go to Kate S (+20), Pawan GC (+16), Pete B (+25), Max M (+16), Matthew M (+17), Neil T (+19), and Nick H (+19).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Everybody’s Stalking:

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 11 round up

 “it’s nearly May and the weather…jeeeez!”

 

 

 

 

King For A Day“:

Greetings from a train travelling to Oporto from Lisboa! (yes, the wifi works Avanti!).

As we close in on another season, the madness arrives once again…

But for all the “chancey” predictions, only 5 players scored more than thirty points this week.

Andy F put in a sterling effort with 19 point-scoring predictions, George T is possibly rueing not predicting on the Friday night festival of football the Emirates and my mum, well, she scored over twenty points…and how!

Jazz S recalled the halcyon days with a couple of five-pointers that took him close to the £20 weekly prize.

So, who was at the top?

Well, we have another double weekly winner amidst us!

Neil Osborne 40 (8) has a brace of injury-time goals to thank this time round – Bristol City’s 91st minute winner & the 94th minute own goal equaliser for PNE to be precise.

 

Well done Señor O, can you predict an away win at the Etihad tonight?!

 

 

 

If You Were Here:

Meanwhile, the madness at the other end of the scale, was off the scale!

Twenty nine of you failed to score more than 15 points and seven of those didn’t have a single correct score between them – ooof!

 

Greg F, Dom W & Suman K didn’t get out of single figures.

 

But their shame was spared by Dan Clarke 7 (0) who tipped us all off on What’s App –  which is kind of a jeopardy spoiler?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Amazing stuff players…most popular score was Fulham’s 2-1 win over Leeds  – 31 of youse got that!

 

Seventeen got Man City’s 3 goal semi-final demolition of Sheffield Utd

5 decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards at Palace. And they did…

Patricia F & Debbie L made us all green by happening upon Burnley 1-2 QPR. Wait, what???!

Mark S & Sam A just knew Ipswich would keep a clean sheet for a 0-3 at The Posh

Pete C obviously guessed Crawley would beat Hartlepool 0-2

Gareth M saw his typo come good on the game at Birmingham

Deepak B said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for his Charlton 2 Morecambe 3

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Patricia Fernandez for her out-of-chaos-eventually-comes-order inspired, Liverpool 3 Nottingham Forest 2!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Rich Lee 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 must have moved to Germany cos we didn’t hear from him…

 

 

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th leaving it on £5.27 – just about get you a pint then…

 

 

Jason Morris is at 45th this week….

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

 

Make The Syndicate proud!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Love On Your Side:

Dan Wayman is looking good to retain his title, 25 points ahead of Charlie H who, in turn, is two points ahead of Peter M in third…

 

 

Three crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

Hold Me Now:

Patricia Fernandez stays bottom, but now only nine points behind Lily T who, in turn, is 1 point off John J

 

 

 

 

 

 

You Take Me Up:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 44 places is Neil Osborne – honourable mentions go to George T (+18), Andy F (+25), Tom M (+15), Mark S (+19), Jazz S (+29), and Julian F (+17).

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 10 round up

 “Yes, i know, i know…”

 

 

 

 

Forget Me Nots“:

In a week that saw only 19 punters score thirty points or more, an edgy “tactic” came to the fore…

Rob C decided that only predicting for 11 games might be the way forward – and only missed the £20 weekly prize by six points!

Olly O & Charlie H took the traditional route and came up short by 5 and 4 points respectively.

Matthew M had a stormer, including Celtic’s very unlikely (at half time) 9-pointer and was scuppered only by his belief in Forest to beat Man Yoo – ohhhhh, Maffew!

So that left Will Oppong 41 (6) to scoop it up and strut proudly down Croydon High Street smug in the knowledge that putting in just 33% of effort (yes, that’s 10 predictions) can sometimes pay off…

 

If only Arsenal had done the same on Sunday eh, Willo?

 

 

 

 

Anything Can Happen:

Down in the depths, it was a real case of “whoah! it’s me” as only seven players didn’t score more than 15 points this week.

3 didn’t manage a correct score between them.

 

And of those, Tom Morley & Ben Hogwood 12 (0) were the barrel scrapers…

 

Maybe a 33% alcoholic beverage will make you feel a bit better chaps!

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

My word…most popular score was Brighton’s 1-2 win at Chelsea  – 27 of us got that!

 

Eleven quite rightly predicted Celtic’s 1-4 thrashing of Kilmarnock

Neil T & John K landed on the two-two in East London on Sunday. <stifles sob>

Darren McC & Norman L were well away with the 0-3 away win for Coventry at QPR

Debbie L & Predictz were grateful for the 3-1 City win over Leicester City

Deepak B celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 1-3 to Fulham at Everton

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Max Morgan for his even-watching-Sp*rs-isn’t-this-bleak inspired, Blackburn 0 Hull 0!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

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

 

And guess what?!

 

He replied, and we have a winner (kinda)!

 

“Games with over 2.5 goals…”

Spurs v Bournemouth – oh yes!

QPR v Coventry – uh huh!

Grimsby v Mansfield – nah!

So, £2.27 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd taking it to £13.32 – very acceptable, me thinks…

 

 

Rich Lee is at 60th this week….

 

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

 

Need a good slice on here mate!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Number One:

Dan Wayman is still top, extending the lead to 26 points ahead of Charlie H who, in turn, is three points ahead of Peter M in third…

 

 

Two crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

Watch Out!:

Patricia Fernandez remains bottom, eighteen points behind Howard T who, in turn, is 10 points off Lily T

 

 

 

 

 

 

I Was Tired Of Being Alone:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 27 places is Will Oppong – honourable mentions go to Matthew M (+21), Olly O (+23), and Rob C (+23).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Haven’t You Heard:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 29 places were Tom Morley & Ben Hogwood – a dishonourable mention goes to Bijay L (-20)

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 9 round up

 “Build a rocket boys!”

 

 

 

 

Weather To Fly:

This week in 2015...

“Imagine one of your best mates got sacked from a Championship side at the behest of some chicken frying clowns – you’d be gutted, right?

Imagine if, in the same week, you managed to record the WORST score EVER in PAS history!

Double gutted?

Triple gutted??!

Embarrassed even?

That’s exactly what happened to our favourite Polski PAS son, Rowan Marriott 4 (0) this week – imagine??!

Surely, a punt on the Lottery can do no harm now can it Row…”

 

This week

“Imagine one of your best mates is sitting atop the Scottish Championship with a city famous for its comic clowns (we won’t mention their up-to-1983 policy on Catholics..) – you’d be made up, right?

Imagine if, in the same week, you managed to record your SECOND weekly win in the same season in your PAS history EVER!

Double made up?

Triple joy??!

Boastful even?

That’s exactly what happened to our favourite Polski PAS son, Rowan Marriott 41 (6) this week – imagine??!

Surely, you feel like you’ve won the Lottery Row…”

 

Another £20 coming your way then fella!

 

Oh. And…

12 people scored thirty points or more this week – Charlie H & Darren McC went close and, were it not for a 93rd minute goal for Plymouth, a resurgent Paul H would have taken the spoils…oooof!

 

 

 

The Loneliness Of A Tower Crane Driver:

A proper barren Week 9 for most, with lots only notching 1 correct score in a “twenty odd points” kinda week.

Nineteen only managed no more than 15 points or less.

5 with no correct scores.

Two got a single digit tally.

Bottom of the pile then, were Lily Templeton & Suman Kaflee 9 (0) – if you’re still here in eight years time mind…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Pah!…most popular score was Toon’s 1-2 win at Brentford  – 22 of youse got that!

 

Eighteen(!) thrilled at the thrilling Celtic 3 Rangers 2

12 got the very annoying last minute spoiling Morecambe 1 Plymouth 3

Twelve somehow stumbled on Southampton 1 Man City 4 (how????)

8 snaffled up the 5 points served up by Liverpool & Arsenal

Reagon K was all over the 0-2 to St Mirren at Hearts

John J got the 1-2 Robins win over Stoke

Paul C was well away with the 0-2 away win for Norwich at Blackburn

Will O just knew Blackpool would score against Cardiff for a 1-3

Jason M got the dull-all at The New Den

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Charlie Harris for his I-love-Colin-and-his-pints-of-raw-eggs inspired, Watford 2 Huddersfield 3!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

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

 

And guess what?!

 

It was a no show – again!

Obviously, something lost in translation or people really don’t read this far down…imagine?!

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd taking it to £8.03 – noice!

 

 

Matthew Murphy is at 83rd this week….

 

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

 

Don’t let me down, son!
