“The Horseman”: 

I had a bit of ‘mare at Sheffield Wednesday the other week but at least they had the decency not to score in the 93rd minute to really rub it in.

But rub it in Senor Joao did with his late late goal this weekend.

Neil M thought he had 4 points bagged but it shrunk down to one & put pay to a weekly prize…unlucky Scouse!

So, if you’re gonna have a 93rd goal involved, best get it in your favour eh?

Best get it in the first game of the week even eh?!

Well, Nick Hogwood 37 (7) has Grant Leadbitter to thank, as his late late goal v QPR effectively won him the £20 this week! And much to the chagrin of his little boy to boot…!

 

 

“The Damned Don’t Cry”: 

Imagine one of your best mates got sacked from a Championship side at the behest of some chicken frying clowns – you’d be gutted right?

Imagine if, in the same week, you managed to record the WORST score EVER in PAS history!

Double gutted?

Triple gutted??!

Embarrassed even?

That’s exactly what happened to our favourite Polski PAS son, Rowan Marriott 4 (0) this week – imagine??!

Surely, a punt on the Lottery can do no harm now can it Rowanski…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Much better all round this week… – most popular score was Burnley’s 1-1 draw with Brighton – 26 of us got that!

10 nabbed a bit of Ipswich’s 2-2 v Wolves

7 got Sheff Wed’s hammering of Huddersfield Town

Four got the very entertaining Swansea 2 Bournemouth 2

Stephen M & Howard T lucked out on the sweet 3-0 win for Ross Co over Motherwell…

Predictz & David G knew it would be Newcastle 0 Leicester 3 (err, how?!)

Debbie L got the dull, droll Palace 0 – 1 Sunderland

Julian F nailed the one-one between Hearts & Dundee

Ian P pulled a plum with his Leeds 0 Rotherham 1

However, this week’s best correct score  goes to Paul Vinson for his outrageously confident, Spurs 4 West Ham 1!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the new “system” spat out 3 more draws that were the most popular among the 79 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We lost.

Again….hmmmm this is getting to be a habit again after a healthy start this season.

Burnley v Brighton did the biz, Preston succumbed to new manager syndrome v Blackburn and only a last minute Partick goal against Inverness denied us some return – grrrrr!

So, £0 goes on to the still barren “Bet of the Week” slot 65th. Never nice…

 

 

Table News:

“Visage“:

Andy Chesworth maintains top spot still 13 points ahead of Peter M who in turn is four correct scores ahead of Scott H in third as a little breakaway forms from the peleton…

No one crashed the Top Ten.

 

“Tar“:

Debbie Lee stays bottom and still only ten points behind Norman L who in turn is 2 points off the still despairing, flailing Neil T…

“Exploitation”: Did you get the benefit of the 97th minute goal in Slovenia?

Danny A didn’t.

Scott H did.

Unfortunately for Scott another injury time goal (albeit 6 minutes earlier) in Denmark put pay to him winning the weekly prize. Said Vestergaard goal meant old stalwart Rich Lee 43 (8) maintained his one point lead over Scott and skipped away with the £20 – “skol, skol, skol skol…!”

 

“Hairless Toys (Gotta Hurt)”: You know it’s dark days & one of your good pals must be wallowing in the doldrums when you receive a text reading “PAS is making me sad”.

Well, Neil Templeton 11 (0) must have looked like one of them emoji thingys this week as he joined the exiled in Oz Paul Carter 11 (0) as duffer of the week. Oh how the mighty have fallen…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Unsurprisingly thin on the ground this week – most popular score was Bosnia’s 1-1 draw with Eire – 29 of youse got that!

7 nabbed a bit of Coventry’s 1-3 v Colchester

5 got Gillingham’s hammering of Bury

Four got the very entertaining Denmark 2 Sweden 2 and 4 more got the equally entertaining Desmond at Accrington

Francesca F, Gareth M & Tony D lucked out on the sweet 2-2 draw for Crawley in Exeter…

Simon Linds & Alex R knew it would be Sheff Utd 2 Southend 2 too!

Ian P got the dull-all, Pompey 0 – 0 AFC Wimbledon

However, this week’s best correct score  goes to Will Oppong for his, ahem, intuitive, Hartlepool 3 Leyton Orient 1!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the new “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 79 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We lost.

Again….

Boooo!

All 3 selections came a cropper – Blackpool v Doncaster, Bristol Rovers v Carlisle & Hungary v Norway…  : (

So, £0 goes on to the healthy & wealthy “Bet of the Week” slot 45th. Nice. But could’ve been nicer…

“Darts Of Pleasure”: As if to stick two fingers up at last week’s sleight on his weekly win, Andy Chesworth 40 (6) put down a marker that said “catch me if you can punks!”  & duly secured another £20 prize with this season’s first double.

And as if demonstrate his steely reserve and unfaltering determination undeterred by emotion, he cruelly denied Debbie L a weekly win that would’ve warmed even the coldest of hearts…anyway – can you get a hat-trick young man?!

 

 

“The Fallen”: According to Preston’s finest, you get a brimful of Asha on the 45. Hmmmmmmmm, Julian Fernandez 8 (0) fell 37 short!

Welcome to the “Fernandez Hall of Shame ’15” JuJu…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Surprisingly thin on the ground this week – most popular score was Leicester’s 2-1 defeat of Watford – 35 of youse got that!

7 nabbed a bit of Bolton’s 0-0 v Bristol City

6 got the dull-all draw, QPR 0 – 0 PNE

5 got Celtic’s hammering of Ross Co.

Four got the very entertaining Stoke 1 Chelsea 0

 

Martin S & Gary B lucked out on the sweet 1-2 win for Palace at Liverpool…

Jon T knew it would be Wolves 0 Burnley 0.

However, this week’s best correct score  goes to Debbie Lee for her very commendable, Nottm Forest 1 Derby Co 0!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the new “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 79 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We lost….boooo!

West Ham v Everton did the honours but Reading lost 2-0 at Cardiff & somehow, The Toon held on to beat plucky B’mouth  : (

So, £0 goes on to the barren “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd. Not nice.

“Oh Man The Future”: Wowzers! Thirty people got 30 points or more this week (does that mean football is suddenly “predictable”?). Five players got 40 points or more. Even Gary B managed to that many points so it must have been really easy to predict…ahem, anyway, Richard H must have thought he had the admiration of the “syndicate” this week as he racked up a whole 43 points and surely the weekly prize! Alas, Walsall produced a stunning comeback from 0-2 down in the top of the League 1 table clash winning 3-2 with a 91st minute goal – that goal gave 9 points to Andy Chesworth 44 (6) and the £20 prize! Lucky lucky Andrew…

 

 

“When Your Life Feels Like A Loss”: Now be honest with me Debbie Lee 7 (0) – are you doing this on purpose? Do you really want that wooden spoon that my daughter has been cluctching for the past two seasons that much??! Anyway, the only way is up…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

A lot better this week people – most popular score was Boro’s 3-0 defeat of Charlton – 30 of us got that!

15 got Spurs 3 – 1 Aston Villa

Seven got Ipswich’s 0-0 with Cardiff.

7 got the very entertaining Top 2 Walsall 3 Gillingham 2

5 got dull-all Lancashire derby draw in Preston

4 got the 0-0 between Newcastle and Stoke.

Ben McK & Andy C happened upon the 0-3 drubbing of the Swans…

Simon Linds got the very commendable Chelsea 1 Liverpool 3.

Andy C (again!) knew it would be Palace 0 Man Utd 0.

However, this week’s best correct score  goes to Gary Blackburne for his complete guess, WBA 2 Leicester 3!

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the new “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 79 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We won again – hoo-ray! We’re on a roll…

Reading v Brighton & Ipswich v Cardiff did the honours but Hamilton to lost 2-4 after being 0-4 down to St Johnstone  : (

So, £7.92 goes on to “Bet of the Week” slot 11th. Nice.

“Take Me I’m Yours”: How anyone managed to get over 20 points this week is beyond me, let alone thirty! So, count yourselves a tad unfortunate Mssrs Ryan G, Paul H & Peter M cos we had double trouble at the top this week…

Six correct scores seemed to be the magic number with Scott Harrison & Alex Taylor 34 (6) just puffing their chests out enough to both cross the line together in the photo finish for the £20 prize!

Nice work chaps, a tenner each then – a word of advice, don’t bet it on League Cup matches…

 

 

“Up The Junction”: Do you think Christ the Redeemer atop Rio de Janeiro, unstretched his arms & wept into his hands (i wonder if the tears came through the holes?) when the Germans shellacked the “forefathers of the beautiful game” in the last World Cup?

Well if He did, then I feel His pain this week.

As creator of *this* beautiful game I didn’t ever imagine, at any time, ever getting the worst score in PAS history (joint worst score actually…) but sadly my 5 (0) has sealed my fate…

Dark days indeed – but hey, at least i’ll go to Sheff Wed & Man City to see Arsenal & Palace prevail in the League Cup!

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Errrrrr! Can someone please explain… – most popular score was Derby’s 1-2 at Huddersfield – 30 of youse got that!

5 got the 1-3 between Wolves and Middlesbro.

George T happened upon the dull-all draw in the Borough of Trafford

Jamie T got the very commendable no score draw for Bristol City in Cardiff

Predictz knew it would be Charlton 0 Brentford 3

However, this week’s best correct score  goes to David Goggin for his Tim Malloy-tastic, Celtic 5 Dundee Utd 0!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the new “system” spat out 3 away wins that were the most popular among the 79 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

“Swoon”:

A right ol’ ding dong at the top  of the shop this week with a 10 pointer seemingly sending the £20 down south for a change…however, Mark Fawke 39 (8) stole in on the blind side to snatch the weekly prize away from our Dan H (just as well – keeps the conspiracy freaks at bay…) courtesy of just 2 correct scores! Now a fully fledged Scouser, Mr F keeps up the winning run for Merseyside and might even use his winnings to visit Croydon for a change (where was ya Saturday fella??!!)

 

 

“Sometimes I Feel So Deserted”: 

If you’re gonna be bad you might as well be consistent about it! No, not you our Dave N (although you really are keeping the conspiracy freaks at bay!). Step up Debbie Lee 10 (0) you really are shaping up to be the new Francesca F!

Thin on the ground this week,  i’ll vouch for that! – most popular score was Sheffield Drawsday’s 1-1 with Hull – 30 of us got that!

11 got Leicester’s latest comeback v Southampton

Julian F got the 0-0 between Preston & Cardiff.

Neil C happened upon Ipswich 0 Huddersfield 0

Neil O kinda knew Glenn Murray would score at Man City for the 5-1

However, this week’s best correct score, and new correct score of the season, goes to Dan Hogwood for his Championship-tastic, Derby 4 Wolves 2!

 

Bet of the Week:

Erm, cos it was such a fractured week (read: I couldn’t get to the back end report in time on Saturday – duh!) I decided to put 3 of my own selections in, and erm, they only all came in!!!

Genius, me!

For the record, Arsenal, Hearts & Toon did us proud…

“Smart Thing”:

There’ll be dancing on the streets of L6, Kirkby & um, Dubai this week! Not because Romelu has scored another correct score winning goal (it was Naismith this week!), more cos ex-Guardian Scouse favourite has come good! Mark J Brown 52(6) missed the first 4 games (!) but picked up 18 points from 2 games over the duration that ultimately put him way in front of the peleton gathered on the mid-to-late forties mark (yes, you Charlie H, Tony D & Rowan M!)

Congrats lah, £20 towards shipping a cheesy nudger from Greggs over to the Middle East?!

 

 

“Slowness”:

Really really not the week to lose ground! So not getting 20 or more points was always gonna put a real dampener on proceedings…

Neil Osborne 18 (0) really should be in your thoughts as you look down on him with your 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 correct scores… let’s hope he nailed an acca with the bookies then!

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

“I was ONE goal out of 17 results this week….” Yeah, yeah, yeah –  you, me & 80 others mate…  – most popular score was Eng-er-land’s 0-3 win in the town of Lithuania – 23 of youse got that!

“Heart & Soul”:

There’ll be dancing on the streets of Birkenhead, Merseyside & um, Manor Park this week! Not because Being Brendan has taken leave of Anfield, more cos the Guardian’s own whipping boy has come good! Alex Rossi 35(5) ironically has Everton’s Romelu Lukaku to thank (this is becoming a regular thing!) for the 1-1 that nudged him in front of the unlucky Peter M (who managed to notch 7 correct scores – how??!).

Congrats amico mio, one to tell that Norn Iron housemate of yours about??!

 

“Disorder”:

If you’re gonna fail you might as well do it like, erm, Man Utd? Newcastle?!

From the sublime to the ridiculous. Neil Critchlow obviously spent his twenty quid from last week’s win on brain eating meths as he joined Paul Carter on 9 (0). Ooooof!!

Jamie T & Debbie L got Wigan 0 Walsall 0

We’re off and running!

“Scary Monsters”: He’s a bit of monster that Romelu fella eh?! What’s even more monsterous is the fact he single handedly (is that a word?) got Everton out of the proverbial hole for a 2-3 win on Monday! And you know what 2-3 means don’t ya? Yep, 9 whole points! For one match! Imagine that?! One person who didn’t have to imagine, merely bask in smug realisation, was Neil Critchlow 39(6) who, courtesy of Msr L, stole in to take the £20 weekly prize when it looked like Pete B had it in the onion bag. Well done Neil, a fine week to win as you don’t have pay me your entry fee now (well, only £3!)!

 

“Super Freaks”: Is your surname Lee? Oh dear! Well…one of your clan finished above Howard T’s measly nine point haul this week! However, Debbie Lee 5 (0) will probably be forced to change her name after this absolute shocker – oops!

 

Correct Score of the Week: Wow! Quite a few correct scores knocking about (despite the mad scorelines)… most popular score was Man Utd’s 3-0 win over Sunderland – 32 of us got that!

7 got the 1-3 in Milton Keynes and 6 got the “Desmond” between West Ham & Norwich.

Dave C, Tony D (welcome!) & Neil M got the 2-2 in the Toon and Jamie T, Alex R & Neil M (again!) got the three-nil between Boro & Dirty Leeds

Gary B & Paul V got the 3-1 involving Southampton & Swansea.

Francesca F & Tony D (again!) just knew Ipswich would draw 2-2 with Bristol City and Simon Linds & Neil T got a fine Bolton 2 Brighton 2 (lots of 2-2s eh?!)

Tony D (again! again! Blimey!) got Inverness Caley’s 2-1 thriller v previously unbeaten Aberdeen.

Steve M got Burnley 1 Reading 2.

However, this week’s best correct score and therefore best correct of the season so far, goes to Lukaku worshipping, Neil Critchlow for his what-the-hell inspired, WBA 2 Everton 3.

 

Bet of the Week: We’ve got a new system. We tested it this week. It works. And it gives real time indication of exactly who you lot think will win, lose or draw! And, best of all, you don’t have to do anything at all (well, except put your predictions in on time!)

We’re gonna roll it out it in Week 2!

Expect, ahem, the coffers to be swelled and the bookies to be cowering! 

 

Table News:

It’s Week 1 – it is what it is! Click here for details…

Please be aware we may lose some players (rubbish people) but we may gain some (Mr 2-0 can’t be that bad again!) so if you know anyone out there who wants to get involved, put them in touch tout suite!

…Predict-A-Score will be back in your life at the end of September!

Bet you can’t wait eh? Well, start saving your pennies cos the obligatory 4,378 reminders will be winging their way over to you soon but until then, have a go on this…

Dream Team 2015-2016

“Stop enjoying the reality of the Ashes and Froome dominating the Tour de France, it’s time to start dreaming! Yes that’s right, the 2015-2016 is only a few weeks away. So, set yourself some time aside before August 8th (the entry deadline) to come up with the killer combination for 2015-2016. The format is the same but it doesn’t get any easier I’m afraid!

It’s still only £5 per entry so if you’re struggling to narrow your options down, you can always have 2 (or more) goes! And as usual, you are actively encouraged to pass it around to friends, family, work colleagues and pretty much anyone else – the more the merrier!

Oh yeah, before I go, I finally got around to do some analysis of the 2014-2015 season and it makes very interesting reading. James Wood won the overall competition with a seemingly impressive total of 3701 points. However, there were an incredible 192,784 combinations that would have beaten James! Some of which cost as little as £70,000 – the blindingly obvious choice of Stoke, Crystal Palace, WBA, Watford, Bournemouth, Brentford, Rochdale, Gillingham, Rochdale and Wycombe would have cost you £70K, netted you 3757 points, and won you £160! But the best possible combination would have been home and hosed before Easter, finishing with a massive 4583 points. That elusive combination? No Chelsea. No City. Not even Arsenal. The best possible combination of teams for the 2014-2015 season would have been Stoke, Swansea, Crystal Palace, Watford, Bournemouth, Brentford, Bristol City, MK Dons, Wycombe and Exeter. Food for thought …

At the other end of the table, Carole Williams finished bottom with 1591 points but I hope that this next paragraph will make her feel a bit better. Carole’s selection was actually only the 594,759th worst combination (and that is just for the combinations costing the full £100K!). Yes, that’s right, there were nearly 6 hundred thousand worse combinations than Carole’s. Or to put it another way, well over half a million! And what was the lowest of the low? It reads like a who’s who of underachievers and these clubs featured prominently in the managerial sacking speculation (and actuality) stakes for pretty much the entire season. Netting a pathetic total of 620 points were … Newcastle, Aston Villa, QPR, Wigan, Millwall, Blackpool, Crewe, Yeovil, Tranmere and Hartlepool.

Right, that’s it from me for now, time to get those football brains ticking over again …” – Pete Britton
