PAS Lucky 13 Spring ’24 Week 12 round up

I’m telling you, these modern boots with their flimsy material & long toes…

 

 

Pearly Dewdrops’ Drop:

As another PAS season draws to a close it’s proving to be the closest one ever, so much so, that we were considering a Sky Sports style “ticker” to give out live scores during Week 13!

Yeah, that exciting!

And we were all going to wear yellow ties too…

In keeping with that “close at the top” theme, six people got 30 points or more this week (with a boatload more very close behind)

Strong claims to win the week?

An unrecognisable Neil C knocked in 3 correct scores after last gasp goals at Wolves, Cardiff & Boltonto go close, and Ben McK went closer still only for a 93rd minute Burger goal at Stoke to wee on his chips…

 

So who won then?

Matt Worsfold 38 (4) had some sweet relief from West Ham’s shellacking at Palace thanks to a 99th minute goal at Doncaster earning him a ridiculous number of points that took him just clear to claim the £20 weekly prize!

 

Boiled beef & cabbage or pie ‘n’ mash (“loads o’ liquor!”) on this fine St George’s Day then Maffew?

 

 

 

 

Cherry Coloured Funk:

Mr 2-0 did well this week.

That usually spells danger.

10 bods scored less than fifteen points this week.

Six didn’t get a sniff of a correct score (spare a thought for Will O though!)

Propping up the rest this week are Lily Templeton & Dilip Adhikari 11 (0).

To be fair, that’s hardly a disaster score.

Well.

Maybe in Week 12 it is…

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

And we’re back in the room…most popular score was Leicester’s 2-1 win against WBA– 36 of youse got that!

 

Twenty-eight obviously guessed Villa would beat Bournemouth 3-1

24 just knew Fulham would score against Liverpool for a 1-3

Six got the dull-all at the New York Stadium (that’s Rotherham, mum)

Debbie L & Greg F had their secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at Watford

Paul C & Tim P put us all to shame by predicting Burton 3 Reading 2

Roshan T nabbed the form book upsetting Blackburn Rovers 1 Sheffield Wednesday 3

Debbie L (again!) got last minute Mr 2-0 spoiling Stoke 3 Plymouth o

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, goes to Matt Worsfold for his wait-for-it-wait-for-it-wait-for-it-wait-waittttt-booom! inspired, Doncaster Rovers 4 Barrow 2!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Andy Chesworth was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 11 so I asked him to provide a 3 team selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

Oh dear.

 

“Southampton, United and Bolton all to win. Not a clue what the odds are as I honestly don’t think I’ve ever placed a bet on football, and probably never will.”
Wise words, Andy, wise words…

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th leaving it on £0 – avoid, avoid, avoid!

 

 

Martin Stafford was at 33rd this week….

 

M, I need your 3 team selection by Friday morning, please!

 

 

Another blast on the darts then??!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Heaven Or Las Vegas:

Game on! Dom Webber stays top, just 2 points ahead of Roshan T who, in turn, is two points ahead of Olly O in third…exciting!

 

 

One crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

Blind Dumb Deaf:

Game on! Thomas Stafford stays bottom, but now only five points behind Mike K who, in turn, is one point adrift of Ben H…exciting!

 

 

 

 

Iceblink Luck:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 19 places is Peter Morley – honourable mentions go to Ben McK (+17), and Kate S (+18).

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 17 places is Andy Chesworth – dishonourable mentions go to Darren McC (-12), Ric P (-12), Sam A (-11), George T (-12) and Deepak B (-12).

PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’22 Week 9 round up

“Over to you Leo…”

 

 

 

Happy Hour:

It’s tough at the top. Not that I know of course. You’d think after 30-odd years I’d get at least a week…

Thirty-three(!) show-offs duked it out for this week’s spoils with their impressive 30 points-plus totals (yep, even Frankie F carried along in the point fest!).

John D smashed home a 40-point weekend, Dan W grabbed a brace of  8 pointers on the way to 43 points and Jason M, forever the cream of The Syndicate, matched that, and threw in 2 x  5 point games to land 45 points!

All very nip & tuck and dive & duck, but lurking in the background, despite his lowly dwellings this season, we had a player who started Week 9 with a correct score just like me…

And just look how that similarity ended.

John Nunns 54 (9) has a furious flurry of bonus point scoring to thank for his pocketing of Week 9’s £20.

Two three-nils, one 4-0, and that 3-2 featured alongside a real Super Sunday of FIVE correct scores – whoo, and, yeah!

Bravo John, onwards & upwards, eh?!

 

 

 

Flag Day”:

So if it’s “tuff at the top”, can you imagine what it’s like at the bottom?!

Safe to say, this is not in my imagination…

Three(!) got 15 points or less this week, with bros Fernandez taking up 2/3rds of that particular pathetic pie.

Predictz 12 (0) not only failed to get a correct score, but had the ignominy of their profession finishing behind, ahem, us amateurs…

Tough.

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Pfffffttttttt…most popular score was Palace’s 2-1 win over Leeds– 34 of youse got that!

 

Twenty eight got the very annoying last minute spoiling Chelsea 3 Wolves o (YES!! I had 2-0…)

18 had Rangers’ merciless deconstruction of St Mirren

Eighteen more doffed a cap to Citeh’s 4-0 deconstruction of Southampton (YES!! I had 3-0…)

12 lapped up the injury time joy of West Ham 3 Fulham 1 (YES!! I had 2-1…)

Ten(!) thrilled at the thrilling Arsenal 3 Liverpool 2 (YES!! Just, YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!)

5 got Kilmarnock’s “Desmond” with Hearts

Five more got Blackburn 3 Rotherham 0

Neil T, Alex R & Luke S turned up WBA 0 Luton 0. Then sobbed a little bit as they thought of poor Steve Bruce…

Stuart F nabbed the form book upsetting, Bradford 0 Stockport 1

Matthew M saw his typo come good on the game at Livingston

Debbie L had Stoke’s 3-1 win over Sheff Utd

Darren McC was grateful for the 3-1 Blackpool win over Watford

Greg F believed in Brum. A 3-0 kinda belief…

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Debbie Lee for her I-knew-one-goal-was-bigger-than-the-other inspired, Wigan 1 Cardiff 3!

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Lee Taylor was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 8 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 45th– up & running at least!

 

Ben McKeown is at 33rd this week…

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

 

 

We need to notch. Are the Blaydon Races on?!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

Caravan of Love”:  Dan Wayman stays top, now 13 points ahead of Scott H who, in turn, is three correct scores ahead of Jason M in third.

 

 

 

Three crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

 

 

Think For A Minute”:  Matthew Murphy stays bottom, now only two points behind Dan M who, in turn, is 4 points off Pete C…

 

 

 

 

Five Get Over Excited”:  Highest climber this week, up a whopping 43 places is John Nunns – honourable mentions go to Neil O (+28), John D (+28), Chris D (+26), and Alex R (+24)

 

 

 

Sheep: Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 28 places is Predictz – dishonourable mentions go to Julian F (-19), John K (-19), Luke S (-18), Mark S (-18), Gareth M (-16), Peter M (-16), Paul F (-16), and Paul C (-16)

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

 

 

Never Tear Us Apart:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping(?!) 14 places are David Goggin & Neil Osborne – honourable mentions go to Tom W-S (+10), Rich L (+10), Matthew M (+11) and Dan W (+10)

 

Mystify:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 13 places is Justin Corliss – dishonourable mentions go to Ben McK (-8), Chris D (-8), and Bijay L (-8)
