OMG what a shocker of a week eh?! And that’s just Arsenal…

With one game to go, any result bar 2-1 to Wigan or 0-1 Everton means that Danny Ashworth will win – 2-1 will give Lisa Grey her 2nd successive win (any Wigan win and Lisa will miss out courtesy of the “most correct scores” rule) and 0-1 will see Anthony Latter share the spoils with Danny…

If you’re on over 20 you’re either a tactical genuis, lucky or a discile of Mr 2-0…

Full SP tomorrow night

Cheers,
Pab

PS – best song from the Citeh fans – “Gallas was right, you’re f*cking sh*te…”

The Kids:

Bizarre week, bizarre scores, bizarre entries sent in (Wayne C forgot to save his scores and Neil B sent in a 2007 scoresheet – duh! & uh?!). However, she’s only ever had a mention previously for being a bit rubbish on these pages but now she gets a mention for being rather good! Lisa Grey 51 (8) was far and away this week’s winner and now she has £20 to perhaps spend on Man City v Arsenal this weekend or at least come out for a pre and post match drink? We had such fun last season!

The So Called 1st Team:

I think Titus Bramble’s last minute goal put the icing on a particular horrible cake this week for Dave Nicklin 12(0). Nevermind mate at least Saint Alan will be along soon to pick you up!

Correct Score of the Week:

Insania abound! 21 got the training session at the Hawthorns, 7 got Hibees draw with Aberdeen, 6 got the solitary 0-0 at W Ham, 5 got the Brazilian-off at the KC, Mark S/Stephen P/Julian F/Ciaran McG got the really annoying 5-0 at OT (yes, I had 4’s), Dave C & Julian F got the tie on the Toon, Louise B & Danielle F got a fab 3-2 for Birmingham, Paul H/Will O/Matt G got Derby’s 3-0 v Sheff Wed, Jon A & Simon L got an even fabber 2-3 for Swansea at Norwich and my beaut little girl Frankie showed amazing acumen on her 4 month old birthday to know that Forest would draw 2-2 with Bristol C and that Lee Camp would save another last minute penalty. But, this week’s best correct score was, of course, Jason Morris’s Fulham 2 Spurs 1

Bet of the Week:

We’re now £30.60 down, the Jamie S 10/1 (thanks Matt G) treble failed on every level. Lise, you’re up next girl, I’m sure Mr Grey will help you along!

Table News:

Numero Uno::

Ladies & Gentlemen, we have a new predicting machine among our ranks – move over Jazz! Jason Morris has a 13 point lead fro his pal Tricky who in turn leads Jazz by 7 points. Ciaran McG & Mark S crash into the Top Ten and the “syndicate” from last year that split into five parts this year now has four of them in the Top Ten – we must stop them kids!

Numero. erm, 73:

Matt Davies (a previous Marmite winner I’ll have you know!) is still bottom 7 points behind Mark S. Mrs F is close to bringing the family name into disrepute in 71st!

Ascento:

No surprises to hear Lisa Grey is the highest climber this week, up an enormo 33 places to 13h. Honourable mentions for Ciaran McG (+15), Julian F (+19), Neil M (+18) and Louise B (+13)

Descento:

No surprises to hear Dave Nicklin is the biggest faller this week, down an average 14 places to 37h (Mr 2-0 shared the honour too!) – dishonourable mentions for John Dan C (-12), Dennis McD (-13), Steve T (-12) and Clare N (-13)

Spotteo!:

OK, if you finish on these positions at the end of Week 13, you win these prizes! Wayne C is on the promos at 11th(-5), Greg E is at 12th(-3), Tim B on 17th(-9), Dennis McD is at 27th (-13), Tony B is at 31st(+1), Steve T is at 33rd(-12), Louise B is at 42nd(+13), Stewart L is at 52nd(-3), Matt W is at 57th(-10), Michael G is where you wanna be if you’re a loser, on 65th(-3) and Mark S is at 72nd(non mover)

Copa:

To qualify for invitation to the PAS Cup 2009 you will have to finish here at the end of Week 13 – current resident is Julian F (+19)

Other Stuff:

The famous PAS Poll is on the horizon, we’re just finishing off the categories so get your memories recalled and get involved!

And Another Thing:

Wenger out!

Cheers,
Pab

Onboard:

As a supporter of the Britain’s richest club, Jamie Sellers 38(7) may consider a score to be mere schrapnel but he’ll be happy nonetheless that he edged out Wayne C by a point to win this weeks prize. Oh Wayne, if only Utd had won at Arsenal.

Overboard:

On the other side of a miserable Manchester Matt Davies 11(0) managed to clamber to last yet again for a second week running but at least he didn’t make it to the game on Sunday – a saving grace!

Correct Score of the Week:

Right, ready? 22 got Liverpool, 8 got Reading, 6 got Arsenal (no, not me), 5 got Norwich and 5 got Swansea – Jon A &Matt G got an 8 pointer at Wigan and Mark S &Jon A (again) got a 5 pointer at Plymouth – Mark G got Boro’s fine win at Villa (can you tell who I’ve got in the spreads?) but this weeks best correct score goes to Paul Jenner for his West Ham 1 Everton 3

Bet of the Week:

£25.60 down – I’m sorry! I was in a hurry! Big apologies for one of the worst set of selections ever – Jamie S will see us right next week, right Jamie?!

Table News:

You Are Pure, You Are Snow:

Staying top of the pile, Jason Morris increases his lead over Jazz S in 2nd to 7 points. However, Jamie S and Richard H have reeled them in to make it a competitive Top Four. Neil T sails off on honeymoon to the Southern hemisphere bridging the gap from the rest of the Top Ten (six of which have now gone over the 200 point mark)

Alienation:

Mark S is off the bottom leaving a hapless Matt Davies there in his place. It’s shaping up to be an interesting battle to get to 65th as only 10 points separates the places.

Everybody Loves Me:

Highest climber this week is Utd exile in London Seb Almond, up 12 places to 45th. I’m sure he’s overjoyed! Honourable mentions for Howard T (+11) – Eagles!, Matt G (+10) – that another fiver you owe me Matty?, Danny A (+11) – good babysitting skills! and Wayne C (+11) – chin up, you’ll still win the league!

We Are The Usless Sl*ts:

Falling furthest this week is Paul Henshaw down 8 places to 57th – dishonourable mention also for John McS (-7)

Boredom &Despair:

OK, if you finish on these positions at the end of Week 13, you win these prizes! Dave C is on the promos at 11th(+7), Dan R is at 12th(-4), Rob H on 17th(+7), Shaun B is at 27th (for a third week in a row!), Simon L is at 31st(-6), Olly O is at 33rd(-2), Clare N is at 42nd(-1), Jamie T is at 52nd(-1), Paul H is at 57th(-8), Mark F is where you wanna be if you’re a loser, on 65th(-5) and Mark S is at 72nd(+1)

Culture:

To qualify for invitation to the PAS Cup 2009 you will have to finish here at the end of Week 13 – current resident is Tony B (-3)

Other Stuff:

Remember we had half a weekly prize to give out cos of Mr 2-0? Well 5 contenders didn’t, leaving Tim Birtwisle 22(3) all alone to scoop up the tenner surpassing the others 16(2)

And Another Thing:

“Wenger out!”? Moi?

Cheers,
Pab

One Day Like This:

It hasn’t happened before so it was only a matter of time I suppose! A spate of 2-0 results gave Mr 2-0 39 (8) the weekly winning score dragging along Clare Nevin, Dan Rayner, Steve Tagger, Tim Birtwisle, Dan Clements & Dennis McDowell. Now those who are not new to this game know that someone that doesn’t exist can’t get any money – it goes to the first homeless person we see. Soooooo, as this week is shared, £10 will go to a random and the other tenner will go to whoever gets the highest score next week from Clare (on her wedding weekend!), Dan, Steve, Tim, Dan & Dennis. Tony B for one will be cursing the Geordies!

Elbow

Wishing they’d left it to fate like they’ve done quite often this season are Matt Davies & Dave McSherry 9(0). Imagine if they supprted Citeh and Arsenal as well! What? Oh!

Correct Score of the Week

This 0-0 spotting is getting me down – 12 of you got St Mirren v Hibs and 6 got Falkirk v Dundee Utd and 5 got Donny v Swansea. 13 players jumped for joy at the Russian’s goal down the Lane and 7 got WBA 2 Blackburn 2. Best score for this week though goes to Lisa Grey for her Pompey 1 Wigan 2. If anyone had got Man U – Hull, I would have abandoned the competition!

Bet of the Week

Oh man! We’re £20.60 down now as Pompey let us down in one acca and Villa in the other. Mr 2-0 can’t bet so I’ll put together a little something to bring is back up to speed!

Table News

Mountain High:

Jason Morris is the first to break the 200 point barrier and forges ahead 4 points clear of Jazz S in 2nd. These two are now pulling away from the tightly bunched peleton – Tim B and Dan R crash into the Top Ten courtesy of their good mate Mr 2-0

River Deep:

Mark Shakespeare remains Bottom (geddit!) 4 points adrift of Danielle F who in turn is 4 points away from Neil B

Climbing:

Another disciple of Mr 2-0, Steve Tagger is bigging up his chest this week cos he’s up 24 places to 15th – Bo! Honourable mentions for Mr 2-0 (+22), Dan C (+21), Dennis McD (+21), Clare N (+20) and Tony B (+19).

Drowning:

Matt Worsfold and Dave McSherry are both down 18 places to 46th & 58th respectively – the sl*gs. Dishonourable mentions for Rich L (-17), Matt D (-15), Paul J (-13), John W (-13) and Martin S (-13)

Spot Prizers:

OK, if you finish on these positions at the end of Week 13, you win these prizes! Dennis McD is on the promos at 11th(+21), Stephen S is at 12th(-2), Wayne C on 17th(-8), Shaun B is at 27th(non mover), Olly O is at 31st(+4), Rich L is at 33rd(-17), Stephen P is at 42nd(-4), Anders H is at 52nd(-5), Seb A is at 57th(+5), Paul J is where you wanna be if you’re a loser, on 65th(-13) and Danielle Fis at 72nd(-6)

PAS Cup 2009:

Other Stuff:

It’ll be an early shout for the “last call” this week as I’m off to the first PAS Wedding in Donegal, Norn Iron – yay!

And Another Thing:

Did Rory Delap keep his “skill” a secret at Southampton and Derby?

Cheers,
Pab

The Aimless:

It was nip n tuck all the way but in the end they couldn’t be separated! Nick Hogwood & Neil Templeton 41 (6) share the Week 5 prize with £10 each. Well done chaps, Neil will be able to add a bit more to the wedding ring kitty and Nick will probably mock his brother in a sibling baiting fashion!

Aimless:

She’s just got back from Down Under but she probably wishes she was still there, Louise Briggs 13 (1) is the bottom of the world of this weeks scores!

Correct Score of the Week:

I might have to scrap this section as it’s a) boring and b) I’m never in it! Anyway, 16 got Birmingham’s 3-1, 14 got Man City’s 3-0, 11 got Rangers’s 1-3, 9 got Rochdale’s 94th minute 3-1 (when I had 2-1 – grrrr!), 7 got one of the two 0-0’s available at Barnsley, 5 got Blackpool’s 2-2 with Palace, Danielle F / Dave C / Mark G / Nick H got Swansea’s 3-0, Dan R / Francesca F / John W / Neil T have a missed penalty to thank for Wolves 2-3 win at Watford, Michael G / Mark S got Liverpool’s historic win that stops Chelsea doing a 38 (yay!) and Greg E & Michelle F saved their skins from an abject week by getting a 10 pointer at Celtic. This week’s Best Correct Score goes to Dan Clements for his Everton 1 Man Utd 1.

Bet of the Week:

Speaking of Man bloomin Yoo, we can all hate them a little bit more as they let us down for £70 in Tricky’s 5 team acca. We find ourselves £10.60 down but have 2 winners to help redress the balance – step up Neil T (can you spare 5 from learning your speech?) and Nick H.

Table News

Top Banana:

Jason Morris swaps places with Richard H and he now has a 3 point lead at the top. Jazz S is lurking in 3rd and these three now have a 15 point buffer from the chasing pack. Neil T is the significant new entry in the top prize positions at 5.

Rubbish Monkey:

Mark Shakespeare slips 4 places to the bottom and I’ll err away from the obvious to say he’s in double double toil and trouble, Neil B is only 2 points above him and Sp*rs feelgood factor has spread far and wide as Michael G is off the bottom in 71st

On The Up:

Scott Angus moves up 25 places to 24th – skills! Honourable mentions for Neil T (+15), Dave C (+20), Nick H (+24) and Ciaran McG (+20)

On A Downer:

Steve Tagger falls down 18 places to 39th – Boo! dishonourable mentions for Mark J B (-15), Matt G (-14), Louise B (-15) and Julian F (-13)

Spot Prizers:

OK, if you finish on these positions at the end of Week 13, you win this prize! Dave C is on the promos at 11th(+20), Nick H is at 12th(+24), Martin S on 17th(-9), Shaun B is at 27th(-4), Dan C is at 31st(+3), Danny A is at 33rd(-6), Mark G is at 42nd(-3), Paul J is at 52nd(+9), Mr 2-0 is at 57th(-3), Mark F is where you wanna be if you’re a loser, on 65th(-7) and Neil B is at 72nd(-5)

PAS Cup 2009:

Money!:

All been promised and paid in by the end of the week apparently!

Other Stuff:

My shadow scorer lost his way a bit this week – shame!

And Another Thing:

The 5-1 will be avenged ’Arry!

Pab
