“No. You’re The Boss…”

“Black Magic”:  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? A colour coded “form guide” trigger the dropping of the penny? Or is it just random luck?

Who knows, but Francesca Fernandez 41 (9) became the youngest ever PAS week winner whisking away the £20 prize by astoundingly predicting 6 out of the last 8 fixtures correctly!

I’m gobsmacked given I only managed yet another mediocre score despite devising the said “form guide” for her to “follow & apply”.

The 13 others who scored 30+ points will be gutted too, but not as gutted as little Frankie will be when I break the news that the £20 “can now pay for her entry fee” – mwwahhh hahaha….

 

“Little Me”: Actually my 25 points wasn’t a bad return on what turned out to be a horror week!

Five people couldn’t even manage 15+ points but at least they notched a correct score…

Sam Craig 11 (0) limped home last this week nicely bookending Frankie’s “girls on top” mantle. Awwwwwwww.

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Things are looking up…most popular score was Ipswich’s 1-1 draw with Leeds – 25 of us got that!

12 nailed Bradford 2 Bolton 2

7 got the correctly over-hyped 1-0 at The Den

4 got the two-two in Southend. The, erm, wrong end of Southend…

Mark J B , Arthur H & Richard H believed in Spurs. A 0-3 kinda belief…

Sam A, David G & Alex T got Wigan 0 PNE 0. Then sobbed a little bit as they thought of those poor souls who were actually there (not that many tbf)

Patricia F & Tony D somehow guessed Dundee 2 Rangers 1

However, this week’s best correct score, goes to Steve Meaton for his I-paid-up-just-in-time inspired, Hearts 1 Inverness C T 1!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 90 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We lost! Again! Booooo!

68% Partick V Hamilton – Mr 2-0 was in there…

56% Birmingham V QPR – what is the Fonz doing???!

50% Bradford V Bolton – the only disappointment was it not being 0-0…

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

 

 

Table News:

“Salute“: Jerry Storer moves up 1 place to go 4 points ahead of Kate S who in turn is seven points ahead of Peter M in third.

Five famously crashed the Top Ten.

 

“Shout Out To My Ex“: Simon Lindsay remains bottom of the pile 2 points behind Paul V who in turn is 1 point off newcomer Paul S…

 

 

“Touch“: Highest climber this week, up a whopping 38 places is Rowan Marriott – honourable mentions go to Frankie F (+28), Ric P (+37), newcomer Danny N (+20), Dave N (+23), Bry D (+20), Scott H (+31) and Mark S (+24)

 

 

“OMG“: Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 39 places is Sam Craig – dishonourable mentions go to Lee F (-22), Rich L (-21), Chris B (-20) and Pete B (-20)

“Take me and abuse me…”: Splat! Did you get under 15 points this week? Oh dear, shame on you! Fortunately my old dear Patricia Fernandez 10 (0) saved your blushes.

Will she bounce back next week?

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

I don’t wanna talk about it…most popular score was Huddersfield’s 1-2 win at QPR – 31 of youse got that!

6 got the five point 2-2 between West Ham & West Brom

5 (inc. me!) obviously guessed Burnley would draw with Chelski

Julian F & Matt W nailed Sheff Wed 3 Birmingham 0

Gary B & Howard T made us all green by happening upon Derby  3-3 Bristol City (is that a Palace thang??!)

Neil C got St Johnstone 0 Partick 1

Martin S got the dull-all at the Riverside

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Best Correct Score of the Season, goes to Richard Hughes for his if-you-put-them-out-there-they-will-come-in inspired, Brighton 4 Burton Albion 1!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 90 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We lost! Double done over…

58% PNE V Brentford – not even close…

53% Liverpool V Spurs – are Sp*rs the new Arsenal?

45% Dunfermline V Hamilton – the only disappointment was it not being 0-0…

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd – ouch!

 

 

Table News:

“I want to get rich quick…“: Kate Slee moves up 1 place to go 3 points ahead of Jerry S who in turn is two points ahead of Eddie O in third.

Not a MVP…

 

“The American”: It was that SuperBowl thingy on Sunday – did you watch it?

It was super exciting!

Rio’s cameo was effortless cool (nice shirt/cap combo too) and Chappers really is blossoming as a host isn’t he?!

And how good looking was that ex-pro on the panel? (my mate said she’d like to lick his cheekbone…is that a “thing”?)

Did you know it was the first final to go to “overtime”? And the greatest comeback of ALL TIME to boot!

And what about Tom Brady? He even got sacked a few times and still came out on top!!!

Wow! Love American football…

Anyway, one person with bleary eyes on Monday morning was Ian Harrison 34 (5) who no doubt whooped & hollered along with Lady Gaga (and that Country fella who didn’t even bother to dress up nice) as he celebrated winning the first £20 of the season. Ian has Blackburn’s late late winning goal to thank (more on that later) for taking him clear of an unlucky Kate S by 3 points…

 

Congrats Ian – not enough to get a SuperBowl ring but, y’know….

 

 

“New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84)”: Imagine being in a gang where you have to contribute in equal measures to ensure you’re not ostracised. Or at least not be laughed at.

Imagine the grief you would get if you didn’t pull your weight, by basically coming up short and not contributing.

Imagine getting off to the worst start possible when the usually whipping boy is soaring in stratospheres so high he’s probably breathless…

Imagine being Bren, I mean, Mark Seels 11 (0) facing the “Syndicate” humiliation this week?

Not all bad though as he’ll get a couple of pats on the back as he spared debutants Danny N & Paul S some newbie blushes…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

It’s gonna be one of those season’s again…most popular score was Hamilton’s 1-1 draw at with Kilmarnock– 23 of youse got that!

5 got very very annoying but patently obvious Chelsea 3 Arsenal 1

4 got the first “Desmond” of the season – Inverness v Dundee

David G, Predictz & Danny A got the five point 2-2 between Ipswich & Reading

Brett A, Sam A & Rob C got the 3 goal demolition of Champions Leicester

Alex R, John K & Ian H got the dull-all at Oakwell

Sam A got the bore draw between Rochdale & Bristol Rovers

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Howard Thomas for his they-can’t-be-worse-than-Palace inspired, Motherwell 0 Hearts 3!

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 90 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We lost! But, oh, the cruel cruel way it unfolded…

54% Blackburn V QPR – 90+1 mins winner for Blackburn!

50% Nottm Forest V Aston Villa – 90+3 mins winner for Forest!!!

49% Hamilton V Kilmarnock – the only disappointment was it not being 0-0…

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 11th – hmmppph! Encouraging though kids….
