“Not heavy…”
“Rich & Strange”: It’s lovely when a long wait comes to an end – New job? Tick! New baby? Tick! Team looking like they’ll finally be promoted? Tick(ish)! Get to see Batman Lego movie on the big screen? Tick! New lease of life on PAS after years in the doldrums flirting with the wooden spoon? Tick!
Actually the Batman one was a bit of a step backwards, but Julian Fernandez 45 (7) smashed in a bumper score to record the biggest weekly winning margin for years to secure the £20 prize – and that was without submitting a score for the Friday game!
Fourteen players slapped up 30 points plus tallies but JuJu still won the week by 10 whole points.
Basically Bournemouth’s 9 pointer sealed the deal…hmmmmm, wonder if he watched Football Focus like me and noted that the Cherries first Prem win was 4-3 v the Hammers and changed his 2-1 score accordingly?
“Purple Love Balloon”: Blimey! Nineteen players lolloped home with less than 20 points this week which isn’t ideal now is it?
Two of them are on the PAS Board (hopefully that’ll put those time-lapse rumours to bed now!) and two of them were Lees.
Not Debbie though.
Rich tried his best to fail spectacularly, but feeling it more than everyone else this week was Norman Lee 12 (0).
Let’s hope he managed to avoid Lego Batman…
Correct Score of the Week:
Pretty hit and miss this week, tbf, a lot of hits though…most popular score was Man City’s 0-2 Cup win at Boro – 27 of youse got that!
12 got obviously guessed Arsenal would beat Lincoln 5-0 (I had it down as 10-2 fyi…)
Will O, Steve M & Predictz got the five point Barnet 2-2 Crawley
Kate S, Simon Linds & Chris D nailed Norwich 2 Blackburn 2
Paul V, James L & Richard H got the 3 goal demolition of WBA
Mark J B, Simon Lindq & Simon B got Brighton’s 3-0 deconstruction of Derby
Julian F, Andy F & moi believed in Eddie H. A 3-2 kinda belief…
Stuart F & Ross B got the dull-all at Elland Road
Danny A got PNE’s 3-0 win over Reading
David G was all over the four nil to Hearts over Hamilton
However, this week’s best correct score goes to Patricia Fernandez for her I-love-a-local-derby inspired, Newcastle Utd 1 Fulham 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?!
Jeez & peas….
51% Hull vs Swansea – the Portuguese boy comes good again
48% Burton vs Forest – how bad are Forest????! (“nearly as bad as the Arsenal!” – everybody)
