Yep. F*ck off Montenegro…

“International Velvet”: The usual wailing & gnashing of teeth had the PAS What’s App group lit this week. Tales of “just one goal out”, “I’m never playing PAS again” and “check out my 5 correct scores in a row suckers!” streamed through over the extended Week 7.

Love it or loathe it, it’s part of the furniture (*spoiler alert* there’s two of them coming up next season!) and it’s here to stay despite the strong lobbying for National League and Croydon Sunday League Div 2 to be drafted in…

Anyways, nearly two-thirds of competitors scored 30 points or more this week!

Fourteen hit the heady delights of 40 points or more (yes, I’m still dizzy…) and a fab 4 broke through the hallowed nifty fifty…

A whole host of players laid claims to the £20 weekly prize with The Morris Men and Rob C being particularly unlucky.

It was left to a City fan to blaze a trail though and whilst Pete Britton 55 (8) will state his magnificent eight won it for him, I like to think it was Barnsley’s 92nd-minute winner at Walsall that really done it!

Very Pep Mr B…

“Road Rage”: Quite possibly the highest lowest scores ever on a PAS week this week – only 8 people score twenty points or less for a start.

Astonishingly, Mark S & Mike K managed 21 correct results without a sniff of a correct score…

and didn’t finish bottom.

Newcomer Michelle Seddon 19 (1) takes that plaudit, but safe to say it’s not really that much to be ashamed of actually!

Correct Score of the Week:

If you got ’em, you got ’em…most popular score was Holland’s 4-0 drubbing of Belarus– 27 of youse got that!

Twenty-five got the very annoying 88th minute spoiling Belgium 3 Russia 1

8 got the 3 goal home demolition of Crawley Town

Six got the thrilling France 4 Iceland 0

4 (!) obviously guessed Italy would beat Liechtenstein 6-0

Chris D & George P got the dull-all at Blundell (Park)

Norman L nailed Macclesfield 2 Stevenage 2

However, this week’s best correct score goes to John King for his strictly-not-international inspired, Luton 4 Doncaster 0!

Bet of the Week:

Prem KC was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 6 so we asked him to provide three results for our “trixie” £3 bet.

And guess what?!

He obviously didn’t read the round up either cos he never came back to us!

It’s deffo catching…

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd – a good base…

Sam Arora, you’re up next! I need your 3 team treble by Friday please! Can the old skooler kick start this…?? Come on Sammy!

Table News:

“Game On”:

“Edgy edge case…”

“Hawaiian Air”: Bloomin’ hell it’s lucky we’re thorough here at PAS Towers, as a phantom Hearts goal nearly threw a spanner in the Week 6 works!

We were all ready to press “go” when the customary “triple check” unearthed a mistake in our live score feed – phew!

So in a week that was pretty damn stark for most (only 12 disciples scored more than 25 points this week), every point really counted…

All twelve could’ve won the weekly £20.

Nick H, Mike K, Norman L & Rob C should’ve.

Martin S probably thought he did.

It might’ve been the 94th minute winner for Preston, but it most definitely was the 95th minute Sonny March equaliser that did it for Simon Lindsay 30 (4).

Congrats Si – you off to your new ground to watch the “legends” with that then?

“Jump In The Pool”: Good grief!

Over half the field scored less than twenty points this week.

9 poor souls didn’t even register a correct score.

Worst of the worst this week were Predictz & Danny Ashworth 10 (0)…

On the plus side though Dan, you were only 20 points off top spot!

Correct Score of the Week:

Thin on the ground…most popular score was Watford’s 2-1 win over Palace– 35 of youse got that!

Thirteen got the thrilling Wolves 2 Man Utd 1

13 more got the very annoying, last minute spoiling, Bournemouth 2 Newcastle Utd 2

Six got the bore draw between Stoke & Reading

4 got the five point  Hull v QPR 2-2

Debbie L & Bijay L believed in Sheff U. A 0-1 kinda belief…

Alex R saw his typo come good on the game at Yeovil

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Paul Smith for his tapered-slim-well-fitted inspired, Doncaster 0 Barnsley 0!

Bet of the Week:

Shezan Juma was on “Bet of the Week” position 78th in Week 4 so we asked him to provide three results for our “trixie” £3 bet.

And guess what?!

He obviously didn’t read the round up cos he never came back to us!

It must be catching…

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 11th – it’s a start innit!

Prem KC, you’re up next! I need your 3 team treble by Friday please! Can the newcomer kick start this…?

Table News:

“On Board”:

Dan Hogwood continues on top, 19 points ahead of Danny N, who in turn, is three points ahead of Gareth M in third.

When it’s gone, it’s gone… *

“Swim & Sleep (Like A Shark)”:

I usually take this slot to moan about how much of a shocking week it was to predict scores (basically, it makes me feel better about my shortcomings…)

However, this week really was a shocker – for EVERYONE.

Check it.

Only 20 people scored 25 points or more this week and only 6 scored thirty points plus.

Hmmmmmm…

It lent itself to an exciting £20 weekly prize scrap though.

Ubiquitous Dan H, Nick W & Neil C all had a shout right up to the last game on Monday night.

Steve M & Bijay L probably thought they’d won it…

Alas, a displaced cockney Down Under came up trumps, ghosting in by one point –

Paul Carter 32 (5) you’ve got PEA to thank for holding his nerve on Sunday if you prefer, more dramatically, that 87th minute Killie goal on Monday night!

You little ripper.

“So Good At Being In Trouble”:

Where a fifth of the league floundered at the top, likewise the bottom feeders were found wanting too.

Twenty PASers totted up 15 points or less and 11 didn’t even register a correct score!

Only one though didn’t manage double digits.

Olly Osmond 8 (0), you’ve done an Ole…

Correct Score of the Week:

Scant reward…most popular score was Leicester’s 3-1 win over Fulham– 21 of youse got that!

Thirteen obviously guessed City would beat Watford 3-1

8 got the 1-3 Franchise FC win over Macc Town

Sam A & Stuart F got the thrilling Southampton 2 Spurs 1

Anders H & Greg F got the dull-all at Loftus Road

Me & Rich L got Motherwell’s 3-0 deconstruction of Hamilton

Frankie F believed in Brentford. A 1-2 kinda belief…

Alex R just knew Swansea wouldn’t score against Norwich for a 1-0

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Justin Corliss for his Toon-always-welcome-an-ex-Mackem-back inspired, Newcastle 3 Everton 2!

Bet of the Week:

We didn’t change it up!

Simon Lindsay was on “Bet of the Week” position 78th in Week 4 so we asked him to provide three results for our “trixie” £3 bet.

And guess what?!

He obviously didn’t read the round up cos he never came back to us!

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 78th – it’s a start innit!

Shezan Juma, you’re up next! I need your 3 team treble by Friday please! Pressure off a bit…

Table News:

“How Can U Luv Me”:

Dan Hogwood is still top, but now a big 20 points ahead of Danny N, who in turn, is three points ahead of Pete B in third.

Look! We’ve got an app! *

“Be Thankful for What You’ve Got”: So, who cannot wait til we get VAR? (No, not you Ole..)

We’ll come back to that…

A pretty fruitful week for a quarter of the league as 25 of you amassed 30 points or more (even Mr 2-0 was only 1 point off that threshold!).

Predictz was amongst it for the first time ever (I should ring them and tell them!) as were Danny A & Prem KC.

A few others stalled on 35 points, but a decent haul none the less.

Someone who was thanking the Lord above that the ref didn’t spot Jan V literally standing next PEA for his last-minute spot kick was returning former PAS champ Danny Norbury 42 (7).

That 1-1 secured the 4 points that ensured another £20 weekly prize winging its way to the Steel City – well done Dan. You are the champion of the world PAS once again…

And yes, I had 1-2 for Spurs’ Cup Final. And yes, i’m very bitter…still.

“Karmacoma”: One man’s fruit is another’s, erm, compost?

A quarter of the league (yep, you lot.Yes, you 26 cowering in the corner!) couldn’t even manage more than twenty points this week (even I got 23 points!).

Two couldn’t even muster a correct score between them.

Joe Shore 10 (0) only just crept into double figures.

The Brummie data cruncher will have to re-jig his numbers if he’s gonna face down this disaster…

Correct Score of the Week:

So, even when i do get a few…most popular score was Norwich’s 1-3 win at The Den– 31 of us got that!

Ten got Bury’s 3-0 deconstruction of Macc Town

9 got the dull-all at Meadow Lane

Six believed in Brentford. A 3-0 kinda belief…

Neil T, Nick W & Moi got the bore draw between The Reds & The Blues

Julian F & James C got Wigan 0 Boro 0. Then sobbed a little bit as he thought of those poor souls who were actually there.

Ben McK & Reagon K got the five point nil-all between Shrewsbury & AFC Wimbledon

Mike K made us all green by happening upon Bournemouth 0 Man City 1

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Gary Blackburne for his “we’re-from-sarf-london…” inspired, Burnley 1 C Palace 3!

Bet of the Week:

We didn’t change it up!

Justin Corliss was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 3 so we asked him to provide three results for our “trixie” £3 bet.

And guess what?!

Missed again, but it was a brave effort!

To win & BTTS

Man U v Southampton – won & yes!

Celtic @ Hibs – won & no!

West Ham v Newcastle – won & no!

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

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

Table News:

“Safe From Harm”:

Dan Hogwood stays top, but now only 12 points ahead of Pete B, who in turn, is one correct score ahead of Danny N in third.

2 crashed the Top Ten.

“Teardrop”:

Joe Shore slides 10 places to the basement, one point behind Greg F, who in turn, is 1 point behind Chris B…

“Protection”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 29 places is Prem KC – honourable mentions go to Nick W (+18), George T (+22), Alex R (+18), Olly O (+22), Predictz (+24) and Danny A (+20)

“Special Cases”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 24 places is Rowan Marriott – dishonourable mentions go to Neil O (-15), Andy S (-15), Chris D (-19) Howard t (-18), David G (-21) and Tim P (-17)
