…unless you’re in Glasgow

“Good Weekend”: As you were…

So for me, it was a ridiculous week for football score predicting. Turns out it’s me who’s ridiculous…

A whopping 45 players amassed twenty-five points or more this week (“hi-five” emoji) and 24 of those went on to push through 30 points or more (“applause” emoji)

Five intrepids crossed the hallowed forty point mark.

In a Predict-A-Score PR faux-pas (see what I did there?), Dan Hogwood 52 (8) smashed past the Gareth M to steal away the £20 weekly prize.

“Our Head of Backend Score Compiling in no way abused his position or breached any PAS rules” said our imaginary Communications Manager (“fuming swearing face” emoji/”rolls eyes” emoji/”it’s a fix face” emoji).

“Lost Weekend”: As you were…

Back in the real world, 29 of us couldn’t even reach the 20 point mark this week.

Nine got fifteen or fewer points…

Three didn’t even manage a correct score.

One just got to double figures.

Carl Taylor 10 (0) has just applied for the intern role in our Backend Score Compiling Dept….

Correct Score of the Week:

Ho hum…most popular score was Reading’s 1-1 draw with Rotherham– 26 of youse got that!

Eighteen just knew Fulham would score against West Ham for a 3-1

17 got the 3-1 Bury win over Oldham

A dozen got Norwich City 3 Bristol City 2

5 got the two-two in Birmingham. The wrong side of Birmingham…

Neil C & Ethan N saw their typos come good on the game at WBA

Andy C & Francesca F obviously guessed Celtic would beat Motherwell 4-1

Joe M got PNE’s 1-3 win at The Den

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Stuart Fitzsimon for his I-am-Gooner inspired, Burnley 2 Spurs 1!

Bet of the Week:

We didn’t change it up!

Richard Hirst was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 2 so we asked him to provide three results for our “trixie” £3 bet.

And guess what?!

Oooops! Failed…again!

3 wins

Spurs @ Burnley – no!

Cheltenham v Port Vale – yes!

Crawley v Macclesfield – no no!

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

Justin Corliss, you’re up next! I need your 3 team treble by Friday please! Pressure on…

Table News:

“Wham! Bang! Pow! Let’s Rock Out!”:

Dan Hogwood stays at the top, but now an impressive 18 points ahead of Pete B, who in turn, is five points ahead of Tony M in third.

2 crashed the Top Ten.

“Hospital”:

Bijay Lama slipped 2 places to the bottom, one point behind Mr 2-0 & Chris B…

“Pump Up The Volume”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 41 places is Peter Morley – honourable mentions go to Scott H (+38), Hira Y (+34), Nick H (+29), Martin S (+26), Kate S (+20), Danny N (+20) and Paul S (+20)

“Alcoholics Unanimous”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 34 places is Neil Osborne – dishonourable mentions go to Carl T (-28), Olly O (-27), Paul C (-19) Rowan M (-19), Sam A (-17), Richard Hu (-16) and Justin C (-16)

“Too Real”:

New year, new start ‘n’ all that, I did my scores from a position of excellent preparation, plenty of research and a knowing that it’d be a week that would go as it ought to go…

But I underestimated the competition.

So apologies for the lateness of this update – i’ve been in shock. And in pubs.

Quite a lot of you clearly knew what I didn’t…

Best of the bunch?

Simon Buxton 42 (7) deftly manoeuvred in front of the other 3 people to score forty points or more this week thanks to Arsenal’s inability to keep a clean sheet. Ever!

That late late twist nicely bookended the Week 1 theme for 90th minute goals affecting huge swaths of PASers.

If you got 30 points or more this week, you were one of 35 – I doff my cap, you jammy…

So, congrats Simon, £20 winging it’s way back to you ASAP – always the best week to win innit!

“Chequeless Reckless”:

Did you score 20 points + this week?

Mr 2-0 is in awe…

15 of youse couldn’t manage more than 18 points this week.

Shocking. Even my mum smashed that!

Not as shocking as Senor Sanchez last night though eh?! Koscielny has scored more goals than him this year <smiley face>

One player feeling a bit “Alexis” is Bijay Lama 10 (0).

He crashed to the bottom this week – but he did have four others for company on the zero correct scores naughty step…

The only way is up Mr L!

Correct Score of the Week:

The game is up already…most popular score was Rotherham’s 1-1 draw with Wigan– 30 of us got that!

Twenty two got the feisty Norwich City 3 Ipswich Town 0

19 got the very annoying last minute spoiling (but not for me for once!) Spurs 3 Leicester 1

Sixteen got the 3 goal demolition of Wycombe by Luton

15 were all over the 0-3 to the Man Yoo

Fourteen made us all green by happening upon Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth

12 obviously guessed Hibs would beat Raith 3-1 in the Scottish Cup

Chris D, Reagon K & Prem KC (welcome!) got the dull-all at Hillsborough

Mike K & Justin C got Celtic’s 5-0 deconstruction of St Johnstone

David G nabbed the thrilling MK Dons 2 Swindon 3

However, this week’s (and probably the season tbf) best correct score goes to Tim Payne for his I-know-how-to-open-a-new-season-with-a-bang inspired, Aston Villa 3 Sheffield United 3!

Bet of the Week:

So, we’ve failed epically in the last few seasons but last season…

was pretty good!

So,

This year we’re NOT changing it up!

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 11th will make the selections for Week 2, the person on 33rd 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 65th in Week 4 will make the selections for Week 5 and back round again to 11th…yeah?!

Good.

So, Olly Osmond, Ben Hogwood & Jason Morris are all in joint 11th, but Olly O was 1st out the hat.

Olly, I need your 3 team treble by Friday please! Here we go…

Remember kids, “just say no…”

“It’s Yer Money I’m After, Baby”: So for me, it was a ridiculous week for football score predicting. Turns out it’s me who’s ridiculous…

A whopping 36 players amassed twenty-five points or more this week (“hi-five” emoji) and 18 of those went on to push through 30 points or more (“applause” emoji)

Three intrepids crossed the hallowed forty point mark, all benefitting from 92nd & 94th minute goals in the Fleetwood & Man City games respectively (“envy face” emoji)

Tony M & Ryan G didn’t see the Ipswich Town 92nd equaliser though.

In a Predict-A-Score PR faux-pas (see what I did there?), Dan Hogwood 44 (7) sneaked past the other two to steal away the £20 weekly prize. 

“Our Head of Backend Score Compiling in no way abused his position or breached any PAS rules” said our imaginary Communications Manager (“fuming swearing face” emoji/”rolls eyes” emoji/”it’s a fix face” emoji).

“Don’t Let Me Down, Gently”: Back in the real world, 26 of us couldn’t even reach the 20 point mark this week.

Six got ten or fewer points…

Five didn’t even manage a correct score.

One didn’t even get to double figures.

Will Oppong 9 (0) has just applied for the intern role in our Backend Score Compiling Dept….

Correct Score of the Week:

I’m devoid of words…most popular score was Palace’s 0-2 win at Doncaster– 32 of youse got that!

Twelve got Forest Green’s 3-0 derby win over Yeovil

7 somehow guessed Newport 1 Man City 4 (how????)

5 got Rotherham’s derby “Desmond” with Sheff Wed

Rob C, Alex R & Tim P got Coventry’s 3-0 deconstruction of Walsall

Justin C got Charlton 0 Blackpool 0. Then sobbed a little bit as he thought of those poor souls who were actually there.

Sam A got the bore draw between PNE & Forest

Rowan M got the dull-all at Ibrox

Mike K got the Blade’s thrashing of Reading

John K got the thrilling Bolton 0 Norwich 4

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Dave Crisp for his I-hope-this-is-what-Mesut-does-to-BATE inspired, Swansea 4 Brentford 1!

Bet of the Week:

We didn’t change it up!

Olly O was on “Bet of the Week” position 11th in Week 1 so we asked him to provide three results for our “trixie” £3 bet.

And guess what?!

Oooops! Failed…

3 wins

Norwich @ Bolton – tick!

Preston v Forest – cross!

Charlton v Blackpool – crosser!

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 11th – bah!

Richard Hirst, you’re up next! I need your 3 team treble by Friday please! Pressure building…

Table News:

“A Wish Away”:

Dan Hogwood climbs seven places to the top, 3 points ahead of Tony M, who in turn, is one point ahead of Pete B in third.

“Can’t Shape Up”:

Mr 2-0 (ha!) & Chris Birch slip down 3 places to last, three points behind Bijay L…

“Golden Green”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 60(!) places is Ryan Graves – honourable mentions go to Dave C (+33), Rob C (+38), Mark S (+27), Rowan M (+25), Alex R (+33) and Richard Hu (+36)

“Circlesquare”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 53 places is Will Oppong – dishonourable mentions go to Debbie L (-29), Moi (-32), Brett A (-34) Norman L (-26), Clare T (-25) and Simon Lindq (-23)
