PAS Lucky 13 Winter ’24 Week 4 round up

“Pep said if I make myself really really small, those VAR lines won’t see me…heh heh heh.”

 

 

 

F****d My Way To The Top:

A bit like the football this weekend, most people won’t be happy with the outcome…

Ahem.

 

Six punters reached 30 or more points this week with old-skooler Ryan G revisiting the halcyon days of yore, Hira Y smashing in a couple of “last kick of the game” correct scores but ultimately falling short, Lily T cursing Leicester (I hear you Lily!) and Kate S being robbed by Dirty Leeds on Friday night…

That left <cough> one player out upfront who missed the first game and collected a correct score to set the tone for his weekend.

Dan Hogwood 40 (7) actually found time to do his scores this week and reaped the rewards by claiming the £20 weekly prize.

As a Board member, he was thoroughly put through the wringer by myself & Dave N, and honestly, we tried every technicality in the book to deny him the prize.

Not really through a sense of fairplay & transparency, more green-eyed jealousy that he came waltzing back after an age away and cleaned up leaving us in his wake.

Grrrrrrr.

 

“Well done” Dan, looking to forward to your annual review in a few weeks time…

 

The Sensational Seven

Assists

M. Joseph (Leeds) 90′

 

 

 

 

Summertime Sadness:

Meanwhile, back in the slog of the real world…

Nearly a quarter of the field scored 15 points or less this week with 5 people not registering a correct score between them.

And finally sadly, we had single digit returns.

 

Who?

 

Scott Harrison & Bijay Lama 9 (0) is who.

 

Boo hoo.

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

It was raining late late goals…most popular score was Charlton’s 1-1 draw with Stockport – 30 of us got that!

 

Six were all over the 1-3 to the Villa at Fulham

Mike K, Matthew E & Greg F revelled in the schadenfreude of Luton’s late late show

Stephen P, Lily T & Dan H obviously guessed Spurs would beat West Ham 4-1

Neil M & Dickie H doffed a cap to St Johnstone’s 3-0 deconstruction of Ross County

Julian F & Damian W snaffled up the 5 points served up by Celtic & Aberdeen’s two-all draw

Ben McK & Hira Y felt Fergie vibes when that Jordan Ayew 98th minute goal secured a 9 pointer 2-3 at Southampton

Thomas S nabbed the form book upsetting Kilmarnock 1 Rangers 0

Damian W (again!) said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for his Motherwell 0 Dundee 1

Thomas S (again!) thanked the Lord for Danny Welbeck

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, goes to Elliot Davy for his I’ll-see-your-90-minute-plus-goal-and-double-it-mate inspired, Dundee Utd 3 Hibs 2!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

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

And guess what?!

 

It was a “no-show”!

Well, he is a newbie…

 

 

 

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th – that’ll do!

 

Paul H, Chris D & Sam A are at 33rd this week…Chris Dixon was first out the hat!

 

Christophe, I need your 3 team selection by Friday lunchtime, please!

 

Another winner would be luvverly…
