“Kwasi times we live in…”

 

 

 

“Flourescent Adolescent”:

Away from the libertarianism, ’twas a thrilling week so it ’twas (no, I don’t know why i’m speaking like that either…) and most thrilled was li’l Lily Templeton 36 (6) who just sneaked past the unlucky Neil M & Debbie L to lay claim to this week’s £20.

Quite how she managed it is beyond me. It was courtesy of one & two correct scores respectively, but the maths scrambled my brain. And as you’ll see below, my (football) brain has deserted me, and then some…

Let’s just say it was England losing 1-0 in Italy.

Enough to please most of Ireland to be fair…

 

So well done Lily, you’re definitely your mother’s daughter!

Are you going to pay for your dad’s ticket to the upcoming beabadoobee gig @ Ulster Hall?!

 

Oh, and only 10 bods managed 30 points or more this week. Eeek!

 

 

 

“505”:

If you’re one of the ten who got fifteen points or less this week, this is going to hurt you!

 

Dan Miller, Mike Krasnowski & Paul Carter 10 (0) must be in stitches…

 

Oh, and four “players” didn’t notch a correct score. Ouch!

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

What am I going to do?…most popular score was Scotland’s last minute 2-1 win over Ireland – 25 of youse got that!

 

 

Twenty one had Sheff Wed’s 3-1 win over Wycombe

15 were well away with the 0-4 away win for Estonia in San Marino

Rich L & Will O got Azerbaijan 3 Kazakhstan 0 (you try typing that right first time!)

Reagon K just knew the Netherlands would keep a clean sheet for a 1-0 v Belgium

Luke S nabbed the ridiculous form book upsetting Cyprus 1 Greece 0

Chris D was well away with the 0-1 away win for Poland in Wales

Debbie L thanked the Lord for Ireland’s Robbie Brady’s 91st minute penalty for a 3-2 v Armenia (who needs Grealish & Rice, eh?!)

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Pete Clarke for his I-did-this-for-a-laugh-and-the-goats inspired, Faroe Islands 2 Turkey 1!

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Patricia Fernandez was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 6 so we asked her to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

Whooo yeah baby!

 

Three each-way gee-gees from Saturday’s racing and we were soooo close to full house…

 

Persian Force@Newmarket 3pm – placed!

Dancinginthewoods@Haydock 3.15pm – missed a place by a length!

Sunset@Curragh 3.20pm – placed!

 

So, £3.80 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd bringing it up to £5.31 – encouraging…

 

 

Peter Morley is at 60th this week

Pete, I need your 3 choices for a trixie by Saturday lunchtime, please!

 

Can you add to the bumper haul already on there?!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

“A Certain Romance”:  Charlie Harris stays out in front, now 7 points ahead of Scott H who, in turn, is one point ahead of Simon B in third.

 

Two crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

 

“From The Ritz To The Rubble”:  Matthew Murphy remains bottom, three points behind John J who, in turn, is 1 point off….ME!!!

 

 

 

“I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor”:  Highest climber this week, up a whopping 36 places is Lily Templeton – honourable mentions go to Neil M(+26), Debbie L (+24), Tony M (+24), Tim P (+22), and John K (+21)

 

 

 

“Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High”: Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 30 places are Paul Carter & Orla McKeown – dishonourable mentions go to Mike K (-23), Matthew S (-22), Martin S (-22), and Julian F (-21)

“700 beers, bro…”

 

 

 

“Chocolate Girl”:

In what turned out to be a peach of a week for most with outstanding correct scores, only ten bods clocked up 30 points or more.

Wunderkind, Max M, did his bestest to claim the week’s win (again!) but fell short to a resurgent Scott H. Scott was probably counting the number of bars on his heater he could put on with his bounty, when up popped Predictz 41 (8) to take the spoils and snatch the £20. 

The usually predictable “not very good at predicting” website we use as a barometer finally had something to crow about…three of their 6 correct scores were five pointers!

So, as many of you know, any “not real person” winner donates their winnings to charity…Alex R & Rowan M will be glad to hear our homeless mate in St Anne’s Square is still about and keeping his head above water and was a very happy recipient this afternoon.

“It gives me a sense of enormous well-being and then I’m happy for the rest of the day, safe in the knowledge there will always be a bit of PAS devoted to him…” <smiley emoji>

 

 

“Dignity”:

A crippling week for some, especially the 13 of us who scored no more than 15 points.

Two didn’t manage a single correct score.

In what turned out to be a mournful week for most, imagine if you went from Week 1 hero to Week 6 zero??! Imagine if that was you, Hira Yonzan 12(0)!

Well, it was you H… <Miguel Almiron’s face shocked emoji>

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

I’m done…most popular score was Man City’s 0-3 win at Wolves– 30(!) of youse got that!

 

 

Seventeen said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for their Northampton 3 Rochdale 0

14 snaffled up the 5 points served up by Watford & Sunderland

Thirteen we’re so happy for Sheffield Wednesday 2-2 Ipswich Town, they will actually wear that ballet dress…

5 had their secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at St Andrew’s

Five more turned up St Johnstone 0 Ross County 0. Then sobbed a little bit as they thought of those poor souls who were actually there.

Another 5 were grateful for the 3-1 Hibees win over Aberdeen

Olly O, Paul C & Max M celebrated the bore draw between Stockport & Harrogate Town

Danny B, Kate S & Luke S got the dull-all at The Riverside

Reagon K & Orla McK revelled in the schadenfreude of Arsenal’s 0-3 win at  Ivan Toney’s Brentford

Orla McK (again!) celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 0-3 Motherwell v Hearts

David G decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards at QPR. And he did…

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Ben Mckeown for his I-always-loved-Wor-Mitro inspired, Nottm Forest 2 Fulham 3!

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Pete Britton was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 4 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

We stumbled and fell…

 

“I’ll go for three draws this week…”

 

Everton v West Ham – nope

Wigan v Reading – nope

Sheffield Wednesday v Ipswich – yup, just…

 

 

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

 

Pete Clarke, Patricia Fernandez & John King are at 83rd this week – Mrs F was first out the hat, so…

Mum!, I need your 3 choices for a trixie by Saturday lunchtime, please!

 

This is gonna be good!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

“Real Gone Kid”:  Charlie Harris moves up 1 place to the summit, 2 points ahead of Max M who, in turn, is two points ahead of Hira Y in third.

 

Two crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

“Fergus Sings The Blues”:  Matthew Murphy remains rock bottom, now four points behind John J who, in turn, is 5 points off Eddie O…

 

 

“Loaded”:  Highest climber this week, up a whopping 48 places is Predictz – honourable mentions go to John N (+26), Paul C (+23), Ben McK (+22), Dave C (+29), Darren McC (+31), and Dom W (+21)

 

 

“Raintown”: Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 25 places are Shashi Arora & Justin Corliss – dishonourable mentions go to Mark J B (-20), Andy F (-23), Will O (-22), Rowan M (-23), and Andy C (-22)

It. Was. Meh.

“we know Martin, we know…wicked top though mate!”

 

 

 

“Moonrise”:

I’ll get this out the way early doors – it was a robbery of a weekend! There, said it. Breathe now Geordies and Hammers…

 

Anyway, one person who was all about nicking a win this week was Stephen P – he smashed in two injury time correct score predictions and the only “feasible” 5 pointer bore draw!

But was it enough?

Well, no. Obv.

 

Only a select quartet scored 30 points or more this week and coming out toppermost was beaming newcomer, Max Morgan 36 (7)!

 

Pipping Stevie P by 4 points, young Max has West Brom’s 98th(!) minute equaliser on Friday to thank for the £20 weekly prize!

 

Well done Max – are you going to give your “score” to your dad so he can get a Richarlson “doo”!    : )

 

 

 

“Vacationer”:

A crippling week for some, especially the 28 of us who scored no more than 15 points.

Twelve didn’t manage a single correct score.

Kate S & Emma T flopped with 8 (0)

Alex R & John D drooped to 8 (0) as well.

 

But David Goggin 7 (0) was most deflated this week as he props up the baddest of a bad bunch.

 

VAR, David?

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Hmmmppphhh…most popular score was Chelsea’s 2-1 win over West Ham– 24 of youse got that!

 

Eighteen got Norwich’s 3 goal demolition of Coventry (yessssssssssssss, of course I had four…)

Darren McC & John K  doffed a cap to St Johnstone’s 3-0 deconstruction of St Mirren

Stephen P & Frankie F turned up Motherwell 0 Dundee Utd 0. Then sobbed a little bit as they thought of those poor souls who were actually there.

Mark J B nabbed the form book upsetting, record busting, PNE 0 Birmingham 1

Sam O decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards at Newcastle. And he did…

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Sam Arora for his yes!-Bristol-City-ALWAYS-concede-in-the-last-minute-except-when-Pab-wants-them-to-inspired, Blackburn 2 Bristol City 3!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Orla McKeown was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 3 so we asked her to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

Our first fail of the season…

 

“She’s very much her own person so she’s gone with a derby, away win weekend special…two prods and a lapsed Catholic (possibly open for much debate!).”

 

But fair play to her sticking to her guns and ignoring “belief” bias – and we salute that…unless you want to win of course!

 

Rangers @ Celtic – sorry hun, not this time

Liverpool @ Everton – a bluenose shut out

Sunderland @ Boro  – smog on the tyne tees was all fine, unfortunately

 

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th  – ahhh, well…

 

Sam Arora & Pete Britton are at 33rd this week – Pete was first out the hat, so…

Mr “Dream Team”, I need your 3 choices for a trixie by Saturday lunchtime, please!

 

Can you get us back on track?

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

“Slow Drive”:  Hira Yonzan moves up 2 places to the top, 11 points(!) ahead of Charlie H who, in turn, is two points ahead of Paul F in third.

 

Three crashed the Top Ten.

 

 

 

“Cloud Watching”:  Matthew Murphy is still in the basement slot, now five points behind Eddie O who, in turn, is 1 point off John J…

 

 

“Meteorites”:  Highest climber this week, up a whopping 37 places is Max Morgan – honourable mentions go to Stephen P (+36), Debbie L (+29), Lee T (+27), Damian H (+30), and Norman L (+26)

 

 

“Falling”: Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 39 places is Alex Rossi – dishonourable mentions go to John N (-27), David G (-25), Kate S (-35), and Dave N (-28)
