“International Week, bloody hell!”
“Das Model”:
Even the “anti-International” Week purists had to admit this one was more in keeping with a regular week – saying that, if you didn’t rack up the bonus points this week, you were in as much trouble as you would in a normal “goal-fest” International Week.
Yeah, I know…
A whopping 42 PASers filled their boots with 30 points or more this week!
Nine of those cracked the hallowed forty point mark, and one reached a season-high fifty points – toll!
Tom W-S will be cursing Leao’s 88th minute 6th goal for Portugal as it denied him 10 big prize winning points and Reagon K will be similarly flailing and wailing at Sweden’s Elanga for his 89th minute goal v Azerbaijan on Monday – it could’ve been you too!
In keeping with the international feels though, it was a German debutant that stole the show this week – Deepak Bogati 50(8) will be dusting down the lederhosen, getting the steins in & inviting the “gegenpress” from his entourage as 8 correct scores (5 of them worth more than 4 points!) secured his maiden £20 weekly prize.
Gut gemacht mein sohn!
Ever get the feeling that your “nearly 30 points” is “more like 18 points”?
Three ill-prepared punters didn’t manage more than fifteen points this week and 8 didn’t even get a correct score…spare a thought for Gareth M who went all Sp*rsy with 21 (0) – eeek!
And in keeping with the international feels, it was a Swede (not a turnip) that propped up the rest this week – Anders Hoglund 13 (0), you need to be more Zlatan mate!
Correct Score of the Week:
Like having your nose pressed against a fancy restaurant’s window…most popular score was Romania’s 0-2 win in Andorra – 25 of youse got that!
Twenty one were all over the 0-3 to Greece on”The Rock”
Another 21 doffed a cap to Espana’s 3-0 deconstruction of a Haaland-less Norway
Nineteen made us all green by happening upon Scotland 3-0 Cyprus
13 had Hungary’s 3-0 win over Bulgaria
Twelve will shout out loud about the humbling of Liechtenstein by Portugal
8 are grateful for the 3-1 Denmark win over Finland
Six saw their typos come good on the game between Netherlands & Gibraltar
6 more put us all to shame by predicting Luxembourg 0 Portugal 6
Five got the dull-all at Field Mill
Neil M, Rich L & Frankie F had Sweden’s merciless deconstruction of Azerbaijan
Rowan M & John K revelled in the schadenfreude of Wales’ late late show in Croatia
Howard T & Tim P got the 1-3 Dirty Ol’ Town win over Stevenage
However, this week’s best correct score goes to Suman Kaflee for his the-German-newbies-are-here-and-we’re-coming-for-you inspired, Sweden 0 Belgium 3!
Bet of the Week:
Tom Morley was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 6 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.
He said..
And guess what?!
It worked (kinda).
The dodgy curry got the Dutch & Exeter mashed up Accrington – but Big Dunc finally got his vegan credentials up and running at Forest Green to deny us another full house…
So, £2.27 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th – cool(ish)!
Dilip Adhikari is at 45th this week….
Herr A, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please!
You gonna go all Bundesliga on us?!
No sauerkraut please mate…
