“Touche!”
You know how PAS is set up so the “best, most deserving” are rewarded at the end of the season?
Well, I got my sums wrong and now I’d like to change it to the least deserving to reap the rewards! <rubs hands together as the Fernandez clan will 100% clean up>
What?!
U-turn?
Moi?!!!
Luckily PAS Towers is a paragon of sense and justice and fairness, (plus there are two Board members bigger than me), so madness cannot ensue…
Poor attempt at satire aside –
Only four people managed 30 points or more in a week which saw a dearth of correct scores.
Neil M was even more excitable than a “Leo” on the Guinness, Matthew S spied some sibling schadenfreude, and Jazz S threatened to take the throne back for at least a week…
Edging them all out though was Olly Osmond 34 (6) – a Forest missed penalty, Ronnie’s “cheek” chalked off and the lovely VAR at Leeds all contributing to a narrow win and that £20 prize.
Bravo Mr O, wanna buy a white label of Chemical Brothers, “Song To The Siren”?
Yuck of a week across the board with 15 punters posting fifteen points or less.
Someone who needs to be less Truss and more Nandy is Martin Stafford 8 (0) who was not only bottom of the pile, but the only one with zero correct scores…
Pied!
Correct Score of the Week:
Sparse…most popular score was Wolves’ 1-0 win over Forest – 22 of youse got that!
Seven celebrated the bore draw between St Mirren & Kilmarnock
Howard T, Darren McC & Emma T just knew Stockport would score against Grimsby for a 1-3
Andy C, Danny A & Ric P got Fulham’s “Desmond” with Bournemouth
Tim P snaffled up the 5 points served up by Port Vale & Forest Green
However, this week’s best correct score goes to Neil Templeton for his he-took-the-words-right-out-my-mouth-on-What’s-App inspired, Leicester City 0 Crystal Palace 0!
Bet of the Week:
Ben McKeown was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 9 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.
And guess what?!
Controversially just missed…
“I fancy us (Toon) to win tomorrow BUT I’m not betting on that. We’ll go for a lower league North-Eastern triumvirate….”
South Shields (Road to Wembley) – in!
Middlesbrough (Road to Nowhere) – out!
Darlo (Road to the Vanarama!) – out!*
*Usually, Bet 365 offers a payout if your team goes 2 goals up in a game, but in this case, it didn’t apply!
And Darlo let a 0-2 lead slip for a 2-2 draw…
Quaked.
So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd, leaving it on sweet nothing – still a chance though!
Paul Henshaw is at 83rd this week…
Mr H, I need your 3 choices for a trixie by Saturday lunchtime, please!
Last chance to add something!
Table News:
“State Of Independence”: Dan Wayman stays top, now only 7 points ahead of Jason M who, in turn, is two points ahead of Scott H in third.
Three crashed the Top Ten.
“This Time I Know It’s For Real”: Matthew Murphy stays bottom, still two points behind Dan M who, in turn, is, umm, 4 points off moi…
“I Feel Love”: Highest climber this week, up a whopping(?!) 18 places is Matthew Stafford – honourable mentions go to Paul F (+14), Danny A (+16), Predictz (+14), and Gareth M (+15)
“Rumour Has It”: Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 24 places is Martin Stafford – dishonourable mentions go to Alex R (-14), Rob C (-16), and Paul H (-18)
