“Big Area”: Wow! Did you get over 20 points this week? Well done to the 26 of you! Did you get over 30 points? No, thought not. Only 4 managed that – so double gutting for Paul H & Anders H then….Which leaves just two. And they couldn’t be split in a horror week for predicting scores… £10 each to Clare Templeton & Pete Britton 35 (5) – congrats, you really are the wheat in a field of chaff!

 

“Scary Monsters”: Did you get under 16 points? If you did, the current wooden spooner beat you this week (Trust me, that’s bad!). Did you get under 10 points? Anyone? Anyone? I can see you in the corner Shashi Arora & Will Oppong 8 (0)…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week: Amazingly the ones out there to get were got… most popular score was Arsenal’s 1-2 at Palace – 30 of you got that thanks to Glen Murray!

18 got the 3-0 at Pittodrie and 12 got the non event between Sunderland & West Brom.

10 got the 4-0 at Celtic & 5 got the historic 2-1 between Swansea & Man Yoo.

Four got the 0-0 involving Millwall & Fulham.

4 more got Burton’s fine win over Dagenham and Ben McK / Eddie O /Francesca  F (!) got Blackpool’s highly unexpected 1-1 at Ewood Park.

Michelle F / Graham E / Debbie L got the Peacocks 0-1 victory over the Boro & Eddie O (again!) / Tony M / Stephen S are currently fawning at the feet of Harry Kane….

Paul C & Rich L nabbed the robbery in Southampton

Paul C (again!) & Clare T got *yawn* Huddersfield 0 Cardiff 0

Simon Linds somehow managed to pull out Dundee Utd 0 St Johnstone 2.

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Jamie Tofeili for his “Martinez Out!”-inspired, Everton 2 Leicester 2.

“All The Rage Back Home”: From the ridiculous to the sublime, what a difference a week makes in PAS! Eighteen points in Week 1 was turned on its head for James Lee 38 (7) as he nudged past Simon B & Tony M to claim his first £20 prize! Well done James, you’re a PAS winner…  #changeyournametoJamestowintwentyquid

 

“Obstacle 1”: Francesca F really is determined to start a collection of wooden spoons judging by her measly 10 points this week but along came Martin Stafford 9 (0) to scupper her plans. The big spoilsport…. #trydiving

A message from Ben H

“Dear friends,

Hope you are all well. I wanted to introduce you to my new website, Arcana.fm!

Arcana is a site I am putting together for readers who want to know much more about classical music but without the pressures that can often bring. The idea is to dispense with boundaries and labels and just enjoy the music, which means I’m as open to reviewing techno albums as I am harpsichord recitals for the site!

Features include ‘The Borrowers’, which will look at pop songs using ideas from classical music or similar, ‘Screen Grab’, which looks at classical music on the big screen, and a big listening section where readers can access guides to music available on the BBC iPlayer or similar. There are also reviews of new recordings that are tailored both to newcomers and those who know a little about classical music.

The site is only 11 days old, so is still finding its feet – which is partly where you come in. If you could follow the site on Twitter, like it on Facebook, or just read (and hopefully enjoy!) before telling your friends all about it that would be fantastic. I would also hugely appreciate any feedback you have to give. The addresses you need are:

 www.arcana.fm

Twitter: https://twitter.com/arcanafm

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/arcanafm“

That’s it for this week – oh, follow us on @PabsPAS if only to see those late scores rolling in every week. you know, the ones that make you squeal or shriek in equal measure!

And remember to add #pabpas to see your tweet on the site – actually some away game pics would be good this season. Or some pics of away fans. Or home fans. Or just the match. Or players you’ve met. Anything footy related to be honest…

Cheers,

Pab

“Leave Them All Behind”: If you’re gonna win a week might as well do it early! Begrudging congrats then to James Challinor 46 (7) who has that late Daley Blind goal to thank as it won him the first £20 of the season! #iwouldhavewonifitstayed1-0!

 

“Nowhere”: If you’re gonna fail you might as well fail in the first week eh?! Debbie Lee 8 (1) is all alone at the bottom after managing to out under-perform my daughter who thinks wooden spoons “are still a prize!” Commiserations Debs, you’re our first weekly loser! #lazurus

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Quite a few correct scores knocking about in a generally high scoring week… most popular score was Fulham’s 1-1 draw with Birmingham – 25 of us got that!

14 got the 3-1 at the Riverside and 12 got the 3-1 between Hibs & Arbroath.

10 got the 1-1 at Lowland League Spartans FC & 10 more got the “Desmond” between Burnley & WBA.

Nine got the 1-3 involving Wigan & Bournemouth.

6 got Aberdeen’s shellacking of Ross County and five got Spurs historic North London Cup Final win at the Lane (now known as the Citizen Kane Cup Final a bit like Stanley Matthews back in the day. It was that epic you know…)

Four got the Canaries 4-0 victory over the Tangerines

James C/Jon T/Neil T got Hamilton’s bore draw with Kilmarnock

Neil C & El Presidente got Rangers 1 Raith 2. (and 8/1 to boot!)

Andy Ches & Sam A got Burton’s fine win over Cheltenham and Stephen P & Jon T (again) somehow managed to pull out Derby 4 Bolton 1!

However, this week’s best correct score, and therefore best correct of the season so far, goes to Norman Lee for his sl*gs-are-going-down inspired, Millwall 1 Huddersfield 3.
