PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 6 round up

 “How dare you dis Paddy!”

 

 

 

 

Lucky Star:

Either you lot are getting better (notice I said “you lot” and not “we”) at this or the bar has been lowered when it comes to winning the weekly £20!

Either way, it’s going to some time for me to get anywhere near being a contender (woe is me…)

So,

yet another hotly contested week saw 11 PASers notch up thirty points or more – and nearly all of them in with a shout right up to Sunday afternoon…

Dave C will be cursing his favourite villain as that Man Yoo 96th minute pen did for his claims to the prize & Danny B must have thought he was in when that “worldy” won it for Sheff U.

Peter M was sitting pretty, when up popped Matthew S courtesy of 3 red cards helping to put him in line for a second share of the spoils in a row…

Then,

from the other side of the earth, Paul Carter 36 (4) produced a Super Sunday to top all Super Sundays – accumulating 24 points from 5 games, including three quite remarkable correct scores from the last 3 games (yep, that’s a 4-1, a 5-0 and a 3-1 and two with +90th minute goals!).

 

You ripper!

 

 

 

 

Think Of Me:

When Mr 2-0 gets the sod all points tally he should be getting and you get less, you know it’s a bad bad week…

Sixteen punters got 15 points or less this week, with 6 of those unable to register a correct score.

Only one didn’t break into double figures this week…

 

And that one was you, Stephen Harrison 9 (0)!

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Wow…most popular score was Reading’s 1-1 draw with Hull – 27 of youse got that!

 

 

Twenty three felt Fergie vibes when that Bruno Fernandes 96th minute penalty secured a 5 pointer 3-1 v Fulham

21 got the very annoying last minute spoiling Celtic 3 Hibs 1

Six thrilled at the thrilling Arsenal 4 Paliss 1

5 lapped up the injury time joy of Sheff Utd 3 Blackburn 2

Dave C, Paul C & Jack B got the 5 goal demolition of Grimsby by Brighton

Anders H & Julian F nailed Chelsea 2 Everton 2

Matthew S & Deepak B got Villa 3 Bournemouth 0

Matt W & Andy B quite rightly predicted Boro’s 4-0 thrashing of PNE

Matthew S (again!) got Bradford’s “Desmond” with Hartlepool

David G celebrated the bore draw between Stoke & Norwich

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Orla McKeown for her I-do-like-to-be-beside-the-seaside inspired, Blackpool 1 Coventry City 4!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Anders Hoglund was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 5 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

My word, we were close to a record haul!

At one o’clock on Sunday we were looking at £65 for 83rd slot, but then Bristol City did what Bristol City do, and caved in again when in south Wales…

However, the self-proclaimed “draw liker” came up with two very unlikely draws!

 

Southampton v Spurs – 93rd min pen, tack!

Chelsea v Everton – 89th minute maiden goal, tack!

 

So, £11.05 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd – skol!

 

 

Tom Morley is at 60th this week….

 

Tommy, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please!

 

You have the International Week at your mercy or will you go all Football League?

 

Another winner please!

 

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

La Isla Bonita:

Dan Wayman remains top, 12 points ahead of Paul C who, in turn, is three points ahead of Simon Linds in third…

 

Three crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

Live To Tell:

Patricia Fernandez remains in last place, two points behind Paul V who, in turn, is 3 points off Howard T

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 5 round up

 “The right words sticking me down, and you respect what I’m doing…”

 

 

 

 

Kick!:

It’s all about taking chances and leaving it to chance, innit – ask those who forgot to predict on some games this week…

In a bumper week, 27 players clocked up 30 plus points but none hitting the hallowed 40 point mark.

Congested was an understatement.

Eleven players were all involved in the battle for the weekly £20 prize.

Jasper M bizarrely “missed” all Saturday’s games (but got 3 x correct scores!) and just came up short!

Dan W will be cursing PNE’s 94th minute 2nd goal!

George T put in a shift but actually predicted on all games (perhaps to his detriment)!

Lee T saw Blackburn earn him 5 points in the 90th minute, had a Super Sunday, only then to be undone by Yanited!

Rob C missed Friday’s games and could have been someone…only for Ayr and his beloved Wolves to leave him wanting!

That left Ric Pardoe & Matthew Stafford 38 (6) sharing the spoils – Matthew missed the first two games but got 2 points for his “forgetfulness” as did Ric…but Mr P will also be fuming at that 94th minute PNE goal as without it, it would’ve given him the outright win.

Ouch!

Bravo chicos, hope those tenners go a lot further in Wigan & Stockport than they would in, um, West Didsbury?!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Feed Me To The Lions:

At the other end of the scale, 7 people took their chances and got nish joy – scoring under fifteen points or less.

Three punters didn’t even get a correct score.

In a “semana horribilis” for la familia del Presidente,  Julian Fernandez 10 (0) propped up the table and saved his nephew, niece & brother the mother of all humiliations…

Phew!

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Blimey…most popular score was Burnley’s 3-0 win over Wigan – 35 of youse got that!

 

Eighteen saw their typo come good on the 3-1 game at Spurs

17 just knew Boro wouldn’t keep a clean sheet for a 1-3 at Swansea

Eleven quite rightly predicted Rangers’ 3-0 “thrashing” of Raith

9 put us all to shame by predicting Hearts 0 Celtic 3

Eight obviously guessed Chelsea would beat Leicester 1-3

Seven believed in Bristol Rovers. A 1-3 kinda belief…

7 more we’re so happy for Leeds 2-2 Brighton, they will actually wear that ballet dress…

Six got on the 3-1 party bus & celebrated Shrewsbury 3 Morecambe 1

Lisa W used her Championship nous to land Norwich 0 Sunderland 1

Danny A spotted the 0-1 Sheffield wobble at home to Luton

Lee T revelled in the majesty of Arsenal’s super 0-3 showing at Fulham

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, goes to El Presidente for my it’s-my-only-chance-at-a-mention-these-days inspired, Crystal Palace 0 Man City 1!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Sam Osmond was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 4 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

Boom!

 

“Burnley, Man City and Rangers to win”  – and they all won – big up Sam!

So, £5.02 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd – that’s the way to do it!

 

 

Anders Hoglund is at 83rd this week….

 

Mr H, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please!

 

Can you make it a double treble? Has the Swedish Allsvenskan started yet?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Stand & Deliver:

Dan Wayman stays top, scarily now 13 points ahead of Simon Linds who, in turn, is one correct score ahead of Paul F in third…

 

Five crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

Cartrouble:

Patricia Fernandez is still bottom (turning 84 this week DID bring you the wisdom of reading league tables & current form, Mum!), but now only three points behind Howard T who, in turn, is 4 points off Deepak B

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kings Of The Wild Frontier:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 29 places is Matthew Stafford – honourable mentions go to Rob C (+26), Paul H (+23), Justin C (+22), and Ric P (+21).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dog Eat Dog:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 33 places is Andy Kelly – dishonourable mentions go to Greg F (-24), Julian F (-29), Matthew M (-28), David G (-23), Tom M (-32), and Frankie F (-29)

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 4 round up

 “Seven! (97′)”

 

 

 

 

M.E.:

Nine bods notched 30 points or more and there was a proper bun fight for top spot with 4 contesting the spoils of the week.

Suman K is probably regretting putting St Mirren to beat Celtic and Reagon K nearly went from “zero” to “hero” only to be let down by Everton & Fulham at the death…

So, you’d think nailing the frankly outrageous 3-2 west London derby win for Brentford would deffo seal a weekly win…

 

Well, you would wouldn’t you?

Unfortunately not this time.

 

A GNeville-esque gaff of missing the Friday night/Saturday morning predicting action actually produced 3 correct scores from 4 games as Dan Clarke 35 (5) exploited the “on-trend” Mr 2-0 to take the £20 prize!

If it’s any consolation to the rest of us, he had an agonising 9 minute wait hoping Celtic didn’t score again against 10 men St Mirren…

 

You’re right, it’s all the more galling isn’t it.

 

 

 

 

 

Everyday I Die:

If your name is Tony & you’re Yanited through &  through (have you noticed that the “&” is on the same key as “7”?!) you may want to run and hide.

Seventeen got less than 15 points in a pretty dire week with fifteen not even getting a correct score.

But propping up the rest was Tony Morris 10 (0)

“Sit here, shut up and listen to Dan C celebrating…”

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Didn’t you do well…most popular score was Chelsea’s 1-0 win over Dirty Leeds – 18 of youse got that!

 

 

Seven were well away with the 1-3 away win for Aberdeen at Dundee Utd

6 made us all green by happening upon Hearts 3-0 St Johnstone

Five(!) thrilled at the thrilling Brentford 3 Fulham 2

4 nabbed the form book upsetting Morecambe 0 Bolton 0

Four more were grateful for the 3-1 Rangers win over Kilmarnock

Martin S, Predictz & Lisa W thanked the Lord for PNE discovering their stalemate credentials at Watford

Rowan M & John K  celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 3-2 at The Emirates in ’23

Reagon K snaffled up the 5 points served up by the nil-nil at Blackpool

Jasper M said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for his Brighton 4 West Ham 0

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Dan Clarke for his Ivan-Toney-gave-me-the-nod inspired, St Mirren 1 Celtic 5!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Pete Clarke 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?!

 

Oooops…

 

Middlesbrough – wham!
Sunderland – damn!
Tranmere – oh, man…

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th – this isn’t going well, is it?

 

Sam Osmond is at 33rd this week….

 

Little Sam, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please! (ask your Dad first!)

 

We NEED a winner though…

 

No pressure son!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Table News:

The Joy Circuit:

Dan Wayman stays top, 8 points ahead of Simon Linds who, in turn, is one point ahead of Paul F in third…

 

Five crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

This Wreckage:

Patricia Fernandez stays rooted to the bottom (maybe turning 84 this week will bring you the wisdom of reading league tables & current form…), nine points behind Paul V who, in turn, is 2 points off Deepak B

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tracks:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 40 places is Dan Clarke – honourable mentions go to Pete B (+28), Suman K (+30), Matt M (+24), John K (+23), and Reagon K (+31)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Down In The Park:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 27 places is Ben McKeown – dishonourable mentions go to Sam A (-25), Olly O (-24), Andy F (-21), Paul H (-26), Jason M (-24), and Andy C (-23)

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 3 round up

 “Sure…?”

 

 

 

 

Hymn:

Does persistence pay off? Does practice make perfect? Does standing over someone with a massive stick to beat them with until they do it, get results? Or does a bit of guidance make a difference? Maybe a bit of persuasion and explanation on why you do things, helps? Or is it just random luck?

Who knows, but Rowan Marriott 40 (7) became a PAS week winner since FOREVER, whisking away the £20 prize by way of two x injury-time goals and some care & attention to what he was doing!

Sam O will by raging he missed 4 games and Dan W went all the way to the finish line only to be undone by random Monday night result picked up by Rowan

Nineteen scored 30+ points in another fine week of predicting that could be a record breaking season if this trend carries on – wow!

 

 

 

 

 

Vienna:

As the standards go up, the five people who couldn’t even manage 15+ points will be even more down…

4 didn’t register a correct score.

Reagon Karki 12 (0) limped home last this week – and probably wishes he was anywhere than in Germany right now…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Another good week folks…most popular score was Bristol City’s 1-0 win over Hull – 19 of youse got that!

 

Nine will shout out loud about the humbling of Huddersfield by Burnley

6 saw their typo come good on the game at Bournemouth gifting them 9 points…

Five lapped up the injury time joy of Reading 3 Blackpool 1

Chris D & John J just knew QPR would score against Blackburn for a 1-3

Kate S & Predictz decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards at Crystal Palace. And they did…

 

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to….no one. Again. No unique correct score for a third week…amazing!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Matt Worsfold 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?!

Epic fail…

 

 

“Good morning treacle – here’s my BOTW selections
The Worsfold 3-Fold
Liverpool to win + 2.5 goals in the game – ooops!
Man United to win + 2.5 goals in the game – nearly
Jake Paul to beat the pretender Tommy Fury – nope!”

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th – booooooo!

 

A few are at 45th this week….but Pete Clarke was first out the hat!

 

Pierre, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please!

 

Will you go back to basics?

 

No pressure fella!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Table News:

We Came To Dance:

Even more ominously, Dan Wayman stays top, but now 11 points ahead of Simon Linds who, in turn, is five points ahead of Frankie F in third…did I just read that right??!

 

Five crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

All Stood Still:

Patricia Fernandez moves down a place to the bottom, two points behind Debbie L who, in turn, is 2 points off Paul V

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 2 round up

 “Jesus is coming…”

 

 

Chime:

Not since Charlie Nicholas putting us 0-1 up in a Milk Cup quarter final in 1986 has Villa Park witnessed such ecstatic carnage in the away section as it did on Saturday lunchtime (although we brought 8,000 up that night!).

And talking of thrilling finishes…

Nine punters scored more than 30 points in a proper scrap for the £20 weekly prize this week!

Justin C produced an inspired performance (39 pts) after his horror show last week and Ben H notched up a very creditable 42 points after a similar shaky Week 1.

In fact, Ben went toe-to-toe and blow-for-blow only to be undone by an old man still recreating his magic after all these years…

But!

Don’t give up kids!

“All the high scorers will mess up sooner or later…” is surely the message here (even if you miss out by a measly point!)

 

After smashing in 3 correct scores courtesy of 90 min+ goals, a 4-0 and a 0-0, Dan Wayman 43 (8) is not letting up his grip on that trophy he won last season (hold on, is that why it’s broken?!).

As mentioned, Ben H matched him all the way, but it was some Neil Warnock wizardry in West Yorkshire that secured the telling correct score to get our current champion over the line…

 

Well played Mr. W!

 

 

 

 

Satan:

Gawd! Can you imagine being sold the PAS dream by your mate with the line, “but all your mates are doing it…” and then walking into a nightmare?

11 PASers didn’t get beyond fifteen points this week, with 4 not getting a single correct score.

One didn’t manage double figures.

Suman Kaflee 9 (0) is probably pining for the Bundesliga right now…

 

Welcome Hr. K!

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Another bumper week folks…most popular score was St Mirren’s 1-0 win over Ross County– 28 of youse got that!

 

Seventeen had Celtic’s merciless mauling of Aberdeen

15 had Boro’s 3-1 win over QPR

Thirteen were all over the 0-3 to Rangers

11 doffed a cap to Man Utd’s 3-0 deconstruction of Leicester

Six turned up Hull 0 PNE 0. Then sobbed a little bit as they thought of those poor souls who were actually there…

4 got the o-3 Posh win over Morecambe

Rob C & Kate S banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt AFC Wimbledon & Hartlepool

Stuart F & Dan C had their secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at the DW Stadium

Danny B & Moi bribed Dan & Dave to tinker with the PAS timelapse cog in the backend, and waltzed off with Watford 3 WBA 2.

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to….no one. Again. No unique correct score for a second week…this is a first!

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Luke Stafford 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?!

Oh dear…

 

“it’s always going to be darts – Premier League trixie for Peter Wright, Chris Doby & Michael Smith to win their games….”
Wrong, wronger & right.

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd – not the ideal start is it!

 

Loads are at 60th this week….but Matt Worsfold was first out the hat though!

 

Maffew, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please!

 

Will you go jellied eel racing?

 

No pressure treacle!

PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’23 Week 1 round up

 Current champ Dan Wayman has a puzzle to distract him this season…can you take his crown?

 

 

Eye Know:

We’re back! With a bang!

No, not Rashford – PAS!

Although, given the sharpness of this update, I could’ve waxed lyrical about “a big game on Wednesday” and how karma works (think that Chelsea fan is up out of his wheelchair now…) and gone into the absurdness of that unnecessary thing called VAR…

 

But I won’t…

 

I’ll cut to the chase as it was all about the “hot out the blocks” points trailblazers – and, they deserve props, right?

Two PASers were 3 x flame emojis this weekend as Andy Kelly 44 (8) nailed 5 correct scores across the, ahem, lower leagues to power to victory (actually he’s probably more indebted to those VAR decisions at West Ham & Palace tbh!)

Have a heart and spare a thought for Sam A who matched Andy’s points haul but fell short on the correct scores count (he did get a big 10 pointer at Celtic though!) and Mark S who narrowly missed out after employing a deft move to not predict Friday’s matches…

 

 

So, congrats Mr K, £20 winging its way back to you ASAP – everything else is a bonus for you this season now!

 

 

Say No Go:

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

Twenty five of you managed that, but only 4 punters couldn’t manage 15 points this week  – and 3 of those couldn’t muster a correct score!

Shocking.

Not as shocking as Jordan Pickford though, eh?

Anyway…

Everyone managed to break into double digits, but feeling no joy in Week 1 is Paul Vinson 11 (0).

Dr V, you spared my mum’s blushes – I salute you!

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Game on people…most popular score was Man City’s warm up 3-1 win over Villa – 25 of youse got that!

 

Twenty one got Burnley’s 3 goal demolition of PNE

15 got Ipswich’s “Desmond” with Sheff Wed

Seven got the dull-all at the Bet 365 (that’s the Britannia to you & I)

7 more got Sheff Utd 3 Swansea 0

Seven others got the very annoying last minute spoiling Cardiff 1 Middlesbro 3

4 celebrated the bore draw between Blackpool & Rotherham

Olly O, Sam A & Jasper M (welcome!) somehow stumbled on Celtic 5 St Mirren 1 (how????)

Ric P & Reagon K nailed Hartlepool 2 Sutton Utd 2

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to….no one. No unique correct score this week folks!

 

 

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, youngster Luke Stafford is first up. (ask your Dad first Luke!) – Luke was first out the 83rd place hat that included Will O, Harry H & Tom W-S…

 

Luka, I need your 3 selections by Friday please! It can be a home, away or draw. 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 lad…

 

 

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! A special mention to Reagon K who has recruited like demon in Germany – we continue to reach far & wide…Mike K has another Candian on board too!

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 respectable Mr 2-0 22pts for Week 1 to boot!

A lot of the payments have come in – thanks! Anyone who hasn’t got round to it, please do as soon as possible – don’t make me chase you!

 

 

Remember we raised all that money during the PAS World Cup?

 

Here are the reactions…

 

“On behalf of the team at Equidem I would like to thank you for your generous donation and wish you a great end to the year and start of 2023! With your help we will continue to track down the exploited workers who made the FIFA World Cup possible and who are owed thousands in wages. My best…” – Jason Nemerovski

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’22 final table round up

“Mbappe”:

So, who won?

Well…a PASer who has, let’s say, been very much a “mystery”.

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

It was another pretty close, compacted & confusing season that included yet another interruption a la the “Covid years” plus, we had the early start to accommodate the first summer World Cup.

And, whilst the Gunners smoothly glide their way to the, ahem, title (please let it happen!!!) with their new found belief & consistency in the real world, our champion pretty much emulated Mikel’s “Process” in the PAS victory!

A few players kinda threatened to win it, but…

No one got really got that close in the end to a tally that now goes in, with a bullet, as the 24th “best winning score” ever!

To be perfectly frank, it was another of those almost perfect campaigns…

Our “Winter” champ started the season off at an easy 21st, stayed there for another week, before jumping to 6th – and then remained in the Top Ten for the duration. Blimey.

It was up to 4th in Week 5 (which was actually Week 6 – don’t ask…), then hitting top in Week 7!

More dips?

No.

Well, bar Week 10, when it was all the way down to 2nd…

Week 11 was all about putting the persistent Jason M et al to the sword!

With the impeccable timing of a seasoned PAS pro, when really it mattered, all challengers were brushed aside in a remarkable performance of concentrated consistency!

 

So, lords, ladies & gents, please be upstanding and doff your caps to Dan Wayman 345 (46) – He. Is. A. Winner!

 

I would say “no way” man, but it’s very much a case of “yes way”! (Sorry. The port is kicking in…)

Bravo Mr W, you’ve shown some sterling scoring this season!

 

Danny Boy won by a comprehensive 11 points from a resurgent Jazz Sian in second place.

“The King” finished one point ahead of perennial prize botherer, Jason Morris, in third spot.

Scott Harrison was a further point behind in the not-too-shabby 4th berth, with Simon Buxton 6 points shy in 5th – proudly flying the “I’m The Top Buxton” banner once again as son Jack was 10 points behind in sixth spot.

Just two points further back, Charlie Harris can reflect on a fine season, (not quite akin to the halycon days of a few years ago, but, y’know…), finishing in seventh whilst in eighth place (only 3 correct scores back) was the ever enthusiastic Ric Pardoe. And, just one point behind him in 9th, at the other end of the Mersey from Stockport, was the ever-effervescent Neil Meredith!

Old skooler Olly Osmond just edged out the much improved geordie Stephen Peaston in 10th –  courtesy of a single point…dusted, bruv!

 

 

“Martinez”: 

Only 17 points, but 66 places, separated our new champion from our wooden spoon champion, Frankie Fernandez 222 (23) in Week 1!

Daughters, eh?!

Awkward…

 

Starting in 87th, my girl never really recovered.

Like a role model to rubbish yo-yoing, it was 83rd, down to 91st, up to 77th (a season high!), then down to 86th for two weeks!

Week 7 it was down to 90th.

A brief rally to 85th & then to 82nd was followed by a slip back down to 85th in Week 10.

Week 11 saw her nestled in at second bottom

A ray of hope in Week 12, up t0 92nd, but then the final fall…securing the wooden spoon to round off another miserable PAS year.

Pete C, Dan M, Emma T, Will O & newcomer Lisa W made gallant efforts over the season to save Francesca’s blushes, but…

 

Spot Prizers

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

Hira Yonzan on 13th, LBen Hogowood on 17th, Lily Templeton on 23rd, Simon Lindquist on 27th, Simon Lindsay on 33rd, Matthew Stafford on 39th, Ben McKeown on 42nd, Justin Corliss on 45th, Darren McCarthy on 56th, Mark Seels on 57th, Jamie Sellers on 60th, Andy Fowler & John King on 65thNorman Lee on 71st, Samantha Randall on 76th, Matthew Murphy on 83rd, Lisa Ward on 89th and Pete Clarke on 93rd – small victories, kids!

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’22 Week 5 (but really Week 13) round up

“And the reason is clear, it’s because you are here…”

 

 

 

Neon”:

*** spoiler alert! ***

I’m writing this like it’s that sweet time of year just before you open your presents… y’know, like keeping it “real” like when the World Cup happened in the summer?!

 

You can tell it’s the holiday season – people put down crazy scores, crazy scores come in.

Mr 2-0 is oversubscribed as people “forget” or drift off into an alcoholic abyss with little chance of predicting succour.

Form goes out the window & “coupon busters” are celebrated by bookies across the country.

So how do you combat this perennial problem?

Don’t ask me, I had Bournemouth v Everton as 0-1 & Preston to beat Millwall 1-0…

& PASers hit the “more than 30 points” mark this week so maybe you should ask Ric P, who took full advantage of injury-time goals but then faded, or Dom W, who lost out on a share of the spoils thanks to that last kick of the game winner for Man Yoo, or Justin C, who was fortunate with missing the WBA game, forged ahead courtesy of Burnley but ended up narrowly missing out thanks to pledging allegiance to Brighton & Chelsea…

However, as Reading netted an 94th minute winner at the KC MKM Stadium and a Super Sunday string of predictions, the miracle of Christmas left Lee Taylor 37 (7) out front courtesy of just one correct score…

 

Ding dong! (merrily on high…)

 

 

 

What’s It All About?”:

It’s Christmas, there are crazy scores expected and there’s last minute (online) shopping to be done.

Why bother doing your scores?

Ten bods are wondering just that in a week of scoring no more than 15 points.

4 got zero correct scores

Someone who really didn’t have a Scooby this week was the unusually “bothered” Frankie Fernandez 8 (1) – if you finish bottom for the season girl, that wooden spoon is the only pressie you’ll be getting!

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Tasty…most popular score was The Arsenal’s 0-2 win at Wolves– 35 of us got that!

 

 

Thirteen just knew Southampton would score against Liverpool in a 3-1 defeat

5 decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards from Huddersfield v Swansea. And they did…

Four snaffled up the 5 points served up by Burnley 3 Blackburn 0

George T, Greg F & Luke S put us all to shame by predicting St Mirren 1 Rangers 1

Julian F & John N said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for their Bournemouth 3 Everton 0

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Greg Fleming for his I-can-cross-the-divide-in-equal-measures inspired, Celtic 2 Ross County 1!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Greg Fleming was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 13 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

 

The boy done good!

St Mirren v Rangers (draw) – genius shout!
Newcastle to beat Chelsea – howay!
Liverpool v Southampton (draw) – nah…

 

 

So, £8.20 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd leaving it on a merry £8.20!

 

 

Great effort from all our BoTWers this season.

Say it quietly, but I think we may be onto something here…

 

 

 

Table News:

THREE crashed the Top ten!

 

 

Greatest Hits:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 25 places is Justin Corliss – honourable mentions go to Richard H (+10), John J (+11), Mike K (+10), Julian F (+21), Dom W (+19), Lee T (+14) and Ric P (+10)

 

 

50/50:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 13 places is Gareth Morgan – dishonourable mentions go to Andy C (-10), Dan C (-10) and Matt W (-10)

 

 

Full season update is imminent once I can work out what day it is…

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’22 Week 13 round up

“PEA’d off!”

 

 

My Insatiable One:

Who said “no one wins a week if they get the Friday night correct score!”?? 

It happened again! <slopes off sheepishly to the corner>

In a week where only one punter scored over 30 points, to get a 9 pointer off the first game is a proper bonus, yeah?!

Unfortunately for the rest of us, the person to get that correct score was the person who scored over 30 points.

Not only that, he added in another nine pointer, a 5 pointer and then had the audacity to miss out 3 games on Sunday!

Dan Hogwood 40 (5) swatted away the likes of me (yeah! me!), Stephen P and Rob C to collect the £20 weekly prize and leave me the only Board member not to win a week this season.

No, I won’t call him “Fix-It Felix” either…

 

 

 

The Drowners:

Meanwhile, absolute carnage ensued at the other end of the table.

A whopping 46 PASers failed to score more than 15 points and TWENTY EIGHT didn’t register a correct score!

Four failed to get into double figures.

Worst of the bunch though were George Triantafillou & Danny Bushell 8 (0)

Feeling wrecked?!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Bloomin’ hell…most popular score was Norwich’s 1-2 win at Rotherham – 32 of youse got that!

 

Twelve got Wrexham 3 Oldham 0

6 lapped up the injury time joy of Forest 2 Brentford 2

Four of us will shout out loud about the rollercoaster ride of Hearts 3 Motherwell 2

Alex R & Luke S got the dull-all at The Den

Simon Lindq & Paul C were well away with the 1-4 away win for Toon

Dan H & Mike K thrilled at the thrilling Wolves 2 Brighton 3

Julian F nabbed the form book upsetting St Johnstone 2 Rangers 1

Debbie L believed in Coventry. A 0-1 kinda belief…

Lisa W (welcome!) said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for her Sunderland 0 Cardiff 1

Damian H just knew QPR wouldn’t score against WBA for a 0-1

Reagon K probably celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 0-2 at Goodison

Julian F revelled in the schadenfreude of Haaland’s late late show v Fulham

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Dan Hogwood for his I-don’t-have-to-tinker-with-the-back-end-to-do-well inspired, Aberdeen 4 Hibs 1!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Dan Hogwood was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 12 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

Another fail (pretty galling after reading this far down isn’t it!)

 

“…for BOTW please do a HT/FT bet for the following:

Millwall / Millwall

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’22 Week 12 round up

“Da Doo Ron Ron..”

 

Weak Become Heroes:

Who said “no one wins a week if they get the Friday night correct score!”?? <slopes off sheepishly to the corner>

Even though that was an actual fact, that fact is now not factual – and it’s kinda my fault…

A big big 22 players smashed in thirty points or more this week (so if you didn’t, you really missed out).

Li’l Lily T, Aussie George T & Haaland-like Dan W all made claims to the weekly £20 prize with strong upper 30s tallies.

But one “player” went through the forties wall – all thanks to me forgetting to do their scores on Friday night. Eeek!

Those four points weren’t the deciding factor (3 x 5 pointers were!) in victory though…phew!

Predictz 44 (7) really have stepped their game up this season (much to my chagrin as I can’t chide them anymore) and now have a “double” to celebrate to boot.

Their second weekly win of the season is also the gain of someone living on the streets too –  I shall be handing out the winnings in Bristol this week rather than to the traditional recipient in Manchester.

Kinda make you feel warm inside and bit Christm umm, nice…

 

Well done us!

 

 

 

Dry Your Eyes:

It was a high scoring week – even at the bottom!

Everyone made it to double figures!

Only 5 punters didn’t register a correct score!

 

Least fortunate this week?

 

Francesca Fernandez 13 (0) keeps the family trait of “not quite on it” going and takes up a more than familiar position in the table…

 

That’s ma gal!

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Bumperiest in a bumper week…most popular score was Celtic’s 0-3 win at St Johnstone – 19 of us got that!

 

Five got very annoying last minute spoiling Norwich 3 Stoke 1

5 more doffed a cap to Hibernian’s 3-0 deconstruction of Livingston

Mark J B, Rich L & Martin S got Stockport 3 Sutton 0

Dan H, Matthew S & Emma T quite rightly predicted Arsenal’s 5-0 thrashing of Nottm Forest

Neil O, Paul V & Reagon K somehow stumbled on Rangers 4 Aberdeen 1 (how????)

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Predictz for their we-may-be-selling-out-to-the-man-on-our-ad-addled-website-but-we-justify-it-like-this inspired, Fulham 0 Everton 0!

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Julian Fernandez was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 11 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

Nah, bruv…

 

“Here’s my Bridge Over Troubled Water BOTW!
All Div 1
Pompey to win v the Shrews
Lincoln to win v Port Vale
Wycombe to win v Morecombe…”
I knew it was cursed as soon as I spotted that typo…

 

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th, leaving it on £23.85 – oh, what could’ve been!

 

 

Dan Hogwood is at 45th this week…

Danielsan, I need your 3 choices for a trixie by Saturday lunchtime, please!

 

 

We need a winner Dan!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Fit But You Know It”:  Dan Wayman climbs one place to the summit, 15(!) points ahead of Scott H who, in turn, is three correct scores ahead of Jason M in third.

 

 

 

Three crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

 

 

Has It Come To This?”:  Dan Miller stays bottom, one point behind Frankie F who, in turn, is, 4 points off Pete C…

 

 

 

 

Let’s Push Things Forward”:  Highest climber this week, up a whopping 34 places is Predictz – honourable mentions go to George T (+11), Lily T (+10), Matthew S (+15), Rob C (+18), Mark S (+11), Dan H (+10), John K (+14), Martin S (+12) and Andy F (+13)
