“Pep Talk”:

So, who won?

Well, I think you all guessed…

Letting the “this-is-how-to-win-a-league-title” weekly performances do the talking “on the pitch” and opting to stay away from our What’s App group (erm, the rest of youse are all on that aren’t you?!) paid dividends (yet again!) despite missing out on giving it pelters to the “bottlers”, as is the want of everyone on there…<shakes fist & sobs>

And, it was another pretty close, compacted & competitive season.

Whilst Citeh smoothly glided (glode?) their way to the Treble with their robotic belief & consistency in the real world, our champion pretty much emulated Mikel’s “Process” (but actually delivered) in the PAS victory!

A few players kinda threatened to win it, but…nah!

No one got really got that close in the end to a tally that now goes in, with a bullet, as the 14th “best winning score” ever!

To be perfectly frank, it really was an almost perfect campaign…

Our “Spring” champ started the season off at an easy 23rd, before jumping to 1st in Week 2 with a 43 points season high (and weekly win)

And there they remained for the duration…

Jeepers!

Any dips?

No.

Well, bar Week 8, when it was a season low of 15 points…

Week 12 was all about putting any challengers to the sword with a 32 point haul.

 

Now as a fully fledged PAS pro, all challengers were brushed aside with remarkable performance of concentrated consistency!

 

So, lords, ladies & gents, please be upstanding and doff your caps to Dan Wayman 367 (51) – He. Is. A. Winner! Again!!

 

That’s back to back League wins – a first in PAS history!

Bravo Mr W, you’re frightening everyone now…

 

Danny Boy won by a comprehensive 11 points from the “surprise package” Paul Henshaw in second place.

The “Top Syndicator” finished one point ahead of, the much improved, Peter Morley, in third spot.

Charlie Harris was a further four points behind, for yet another Top Ten finish, in the not-too-shabby 4th berth, with Francesca Fernandez 4 points shy in 5th – proudly flying the “Best In Clan” banner by using her wooden spoon from last year to stir up some startling form that also won her £20 from me in a bet about being “Top Girl of the Season” (yes, it really was misery maximus for me!)

Neil Meredith was 5 points behind in sixth spot. How “Liverpoolsy” of you Neil…

Just one correct score further back, Neil Osborne can reflect on a fine season, (2 x weekly wins!), finishing in seventh whilst in eighth place (only 1 point back), was a Spurs fan with something to shout about, Simon Lindsay. And, five points behind him in 9th, was the ever-improving Andy Kelly!

Relieved Evertonian Andy Fowler was just edged out by 2 correct scores, but grabbed 10th spot – courtesy of a single point – from Citizen Andy Chesworth (the casbah was rocked!)

 

 

“Arteta Process”: 

Only 19 points, but 72 places, separated our new champion from our wooden spoon champion, Patricia Fernandez 241 (29) in Week 1!

Mothers, eh?!

Awkward…

 

Starting in 95th, my mum never really recovered.

Like a role model to consistent rubbish scoring, she stayed at 95th in Week 2, then…

Week 3 it was down to the Bottom.

And there she stayed with a season performance like an inverted Dan Wayman.

A ray of hope in Week 11, a season high of 31 points, came to nothing as securing the wooden spoon for a 4th time was already done.

Howard T, John J, Paul V, Lily T and a dazed & confused, hopelessly lost Tony M made gallant efforts over the season to save Tricia’s blushes, but…

The Top 32 have qualified and the big draw will take place when the real CL one does…

 

 

 

Other little bits 

 

Deepak Bogati picks up £10 for getting the Best Weekly Score of the Season on International Week (Week 7) –  50 (8)

 

My mum picked up £5 for getting the Best Correct Score of the Season – Liverpool 3 Nottingham Forest 2!

 

 

Plaudits

Thanks again to all for taking time and bothering to play, we couldn’t do it without you!

And a final big thank you to Dave N & Dan H for providing all the behind-the-scenes tech stuff to enable another great (relatively glitch-free!) season…

 

See you in August PASers.

 

Cheers, and enjoy your summer…

 

Oooh, this popped up on the Guardian’s Fiver Football Daily…

 

“If Manchester City win the Champions League final 5-1, will the match be known as the InterCity 125?” – Richard Hirst.

 

And,

look at this from Sky Super 6!

come and have a go next season…I was always better at the smaller football games   : )

 

Pab

“Proper…”

 

“The Lion’s Roar”:

This is late due to the PAS Cup semi-final replay.

So cast your mind back to the Coronation weekend…

Actually, don’t. I’ll just get on with the facts.

Only eight players scored 30 points or more in the final week of the season and they all could have won the £20 weekly prize.

In fact, the 10 that left Mr 2-0 in charge of their scores could have won it too.

And yes, all of them beat my score…

So lots of youse can count yourselves unlucky, but it was Peter Morley 33 (6) that came out as top dog with absolutely no luck involved given that 4 of his 6 correct scores were from the Scottish Premiership!

 

McImpressive!

 

 

 

“Blue”:

And in the final week of the season at the other end, eleven punters failed to get more than 15 points.

Seven didn’t get a correct score (spare a thought for Rowan M with his 18 points!).

One didn’t get into double figures.

 

Tony Morris 8 (0) is on the beach ladies & gents…

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Blimey, that was a week…most popular score was Hibernian’s 2-1 win over St Mirren – 23 of youse got that!

 

Seventeen said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for their Burnley 3 Cardiff 0

7 celebrated the bore draw between Wigan & Rotherham

Five had their secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at Kenilworth Road

Howard T, Justin C & Deepak B nabbed the form book upsetting Bournemouth 1 Chelsea 3

Olly O & Darren McC lapped up the 14 minutes of injury time joy of Exeter 3 Morecambe 2

Richard H just knew Bristol City would keep a clean sheet for a o-2 at QPR

El Presidente celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 1-0 at Anfield

Luke S put us all to shame by predicting Spurs 1 C Palace 0

Paul H believed in Man City. A 2-1 kinda belief…

Dilip A thanked the Lord for Joe Piroe – his 93rd minute goal gifting a whole nine points at Swansea

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Orla McKeown for her I-knew-my-team-could-do-it-and-in-style-too inspired, PNE 0 Sunderland 3!

 

 

Bet of the Week:

 

Ryan Graves was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 12 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

Oh dear.

 

He played it safe with a very conservative top-of-the-table Stirling to win at bottom-placed Albion, promotion-chasing Stockport to beat relegated Hartlepool, and scrambling Cambridge to beat relegated Forest Green…

 

L L W!

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd leaving it on £8.02 – oh well…

 

 

 

 

Great effort from all our BoTWers this season.

 

Say it quietly, but I think we may be onto something here…but I always say that, don’t I….

 

 

 

Table News:

 

One crashed the Top Ten.

 

“My Silver Lining”:  

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 18 places, is David Goggin – honourable mentions go to Darren McC (+12), Jazz S (+18), Scott H (+12), Dan H (+12) and Jack B (+13)

 

“Out Of My Head”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 26 places, is Lisa Ward – dishonourable mentions go to Pete B (-17), Matthew S (-17), Rich L (-15) and Sam A (-15)

 

 

PAS Cup 2022:

Semi Finals ties went ahead this week…

 

It. Was. Really. Dramatic!

 

We had 1 successful joker! And, 1 heartbreaker!

Simon Buxton dispatched Andy Kelly 27 (5) to 21 (2) to take his place in the Final.

But the only non-successful “joker” of four meant Jack Buxton earnt a replay against Charlie Harris in a 31 (5) all draw!

It went to extra time (17 games over last weekend) and, amazingly, we finally got a winner. But only just…

Jack Buxton emerged the winner by 16(3) – 15 (3) in a nail-biter to set up a family affair in the Final

Now that was a Cup tie!

 

Commiserations to the losers – the £30 should see you right though eh?!)

 

Full fixtures & results can be found here

When the season ends!

 

 

Mwwahhhhahaha…

 

 

Cheers,
Pab

 “Stool…”

 

 

 

 

“You Were Right“:

Bit of a classic this week!

Twenty one bods racked up 30 points or more, prompting a proper scrap for the £20 weekly prize…

Paul H put in a good shout with his 95th minute 9 pointer at Sheff Utd and Pete B sprang into life only to see a weekly win disappear as the clock ticked to 93 minutes at Anfield – oooof!

Andy K continued his sparkling form adding another 7 correct scores to his collection.

Only two breached the 40 point mark with Neil O going very close to an unprecedented hat-trick of weekly wins (Dave! Dan! Has that been done before?!) with TWO last minute goals denying him at the death.

That left the classical Ben Hogwood 43 (7) up front & centre like a Proms conductor in full pomp – he too benefitted from Bentford’s last gasp winner, Arsenal taking their foot off the gas and the gall of Rotherham beating play off chasing Boro!

Congrats sir, drop the prim formalities and whistle, stamp & commence the bobbing up and down – you’re a winner!

 

 

“Silent Sigh”:

From a classic to a near-mythical week as only THREE players failed to score more than fifteen points!

And, only 3 didn’t register a correct score (spare a thought for Andy B on his lonely 18 points though…)

Julian F was denied the obligatory family shaming as our man Down Under, Paul Carter 13 (0), went under…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Jolly good show…most popular score was WBA’s 2-1 win over Norwich  – 28 of youse got that!

 

 

Twenty two believed in Arsenal. A 3-1 kinda belief…

8 were well away with the 0-3 away win for Wednesday

Five were grateful for the 3-1 Toon win over the Saints

4 thrilled at the thrilling Morecambe 3 Lincoln City 2

Neil T, Nick H & Greg F got Leicester’s “Desmond” with Everton

Jamie S, Greg F (again!) & Suman K lapped up the injury time joy of Hartlepool 3 Barrow 1

Bijay L & Matthew M were all over the Scottish Cup Semi Final 0-3 to Super Cally

Eddie O & Jasper M felt “Fergie vibes” when Sunderland’s Patrick Roberts 95th minute goal secured a 5 pointer 2-2 v Watford

Paul H & Lisa W put us all to shame by predicting Sheffield Utd 4 PNE 1

Ben H nabbed the form book upsetting Rotherham 1 Middlesbro 0

Lily T doffed a cap to Celtic’s 1-0 semi-final win over Rangers

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Nick Hogwood for his lower-league-match-talk inspired, Carlisle Utd 2 Salford City 3!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Jason Morris was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 11 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

He produced!

“Treble mate…Brentford, Brighton, Liverpool –  all BTTS (both teams to score) and win”

 

Brentford – last gasp!

Liverpool – LOL!

Brighton – six goals but none for Wolves!

 

So, £7.55 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th leaving it on £10.55 – bravo!

 

 

Ryan Graves is at 33rd this week….

 

Mi amigo viejo, I need your 3 team treble by Saturday morning, please!

 

Decent amount to build on here sunshine!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

“Another Pearl”:

Dan Wayman is top with a week left & has a lead of 23 points over Paul H who, in turn, is eight points ahead of Simon Linds in third…he’s done it, hasn’t he?!

 

 

Two crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

“Once Around The Block“:

Patricia Fernandez is bottom, but fighting back, nine points behind Howard T who, in turn, is 6 points off Lily T…

 

 

 

 

 

 

“The Shining”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 35 places is Ben Hogwood – honourable mentions go to Kate S (+20), Pawan GC (+16), Pete B (+25), Max M (+16), Matthew M (+17), Neil T (+19), and Nick H (+19).

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Everybody’s Stalking”:

 “it’s nearly May and the weather…jeeeez!”

 

 

 

 

“King For A Day“:

Greetings from a train travelling to Oporto from Lisboa! (yes, the wifi works Avanti!).

As we close in on another season, the madness arrives once again…

But for all the “chancey” predictions, only 5 players scored more than thirty points this week.

Andy F put in a sterling effort with 19 point-scoring predictions, George T is possibly rueing not predicting on the Friday night festival of football the Emirates and my mum, well, she scored over twenty points…and how!

Jazz S recalled the halcyon days with a couple of five-pointers that took him close to the £20 weekly prize.

So, who was at the top?

Well, we have another double weekly winner amidst us!

Neil Osborne 40 (8) has a brace of injury-time goals to thank this time round – Bristol City’s 91st minute winner & the 94th minute own goal equaliser for PNE to be precise.

 

Well done Señor O, can you predict an away win at the Etihad tonight?!

 

 

 

“If You Were Here”:

Meanwhile, the madness at the other end of the scale, was off the scale!

Twenty nine of you failed to score more than 15 points and seven of those didn’t have a single correct score between them – ooof!

 

Greg F, Dom W & Suman K didn’t get out of single figures.

 

But their shame was spared by Dan Clarke 7 (0) who tipped us all off on What’s App –  which is kind of a jeopardy spoiler?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Amazing stuff players…most popular score was Fulham’s 2-1 win over Leeds  – 31 of youse got that!

 

Seventeen got Man City’s 3 goal semi-final demolition of Sheffield Utd

5 decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards at Palace. And they did…

Patricia F & Debbie L made us all green by happening upon Burnley 1-2 QPR. Wait, what???!

Mark S & Sam A just knew Ipswich would keep a clean sheet for a 0-3 at The Posh

Pete C obviously guessed Crawley would beat Hartlepool 0-2

Gareth M saw his typo come good on the game at Birmingham

Deepak B said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for his Charlton 2 Morecambe 3

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Patricia Fernandez for her out-of-chaos-eventually-comes-order inspired, Liverpool 3 Nottingham Forest 2!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Rich Lee was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 10 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

He must have moved to Germany cos we didn’t hear from him…

 

 

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th leaving it on £5.27 – just about get you a pint then…

 

 

Jason Morris is at 45th this week….

Jay, I need your 3 team treble by Friday morning, please!

 

Make The Syndicate proud!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

“Love On Your Side”:

Dan Wayman is looking good to retain his title, 25 points ahead of Charlie H who, in turn, is two points ahead of Peter M in third…

 

 

Three crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

“Hold Me Now“:

Patricia Fernandez stays bottom, but now only nine points behind Lily T who, in turn, is 1 point off John J…

 

 

 

 

 

 

“You Take Me Up”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 44 places is Neil Osborne – honourable mentions go to George T (+18), Andy F (+25), Tom M (+15), Mark S (+19), Jazz S (+29), and Julian F (+17).

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 24 places is Dan Clarke – dishonourable mentions go to Rob C (-17), Jamie S (-15), Suman K (-18), Tom W-S (-15), and Scott H (-15)

 “Yes, i know, i know…”

 

 

 

 

“Forget Me Nots“:

In a week that saw only 19 punters score thirty points or more, an edgy “tactic” came to the fore…

Rob C decided that only predicting for 11 games might be the way forward – and only missed the £20 weekly prize by six points!

Olly O & Charlie H took the traditional route and came up short by 5 and 4 points respectively.

Matthew M had a stormer, including Celtic’s very unlikely (at half time) 9-pointer and was scuppered only by his belief in Forest to beat Man Yoo – ohhhhh, Maffew!

So that left Will Oppong 41 (6) to scoop it up and strut proudly down Croydon High Street smug in the knowledge that putting in just 33% of effort (yes, that’s 10 predictions) can sometimes pay off…

 

If only Arsenal had done the same on Sunday eh, Willo?

 

 

 

 

“Anything Can Happen”:

Down in the depths, it was a real case of “whoah! it’s me” as only seven players didn’t score more than 15 points this week.

3 didn’t manage a correct score between them.

 

And of those, Tom Morley & Ben Hogwood 12 (0) were the barrel scrapers…

 

Maybe a 33% alcoholic beverage will make you feel a bit better chaps!

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

My word…most popular score was Brighton’s 1-2 win at Chelsea  – 27 of us got that!

 

Eleven quite rightly predicted Celtic’s 1-4 thrashing of Kilmarnock

Neil T & John K landed on the two-two in East London on Sunday. <stifles sob>

Darren McC & Norman L were well away with the 0-3 away win for Coventry at QPR

Debbie L & Predictz were grateful for the 3-1 City win over Leicester City

Deepak B celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 1-3 to Fulham at Everton

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Max Morgan for his even-watching-Sp*rs-isn’t-this-bleak inspired, Blackburn 0 Hull 0!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Matthew Murphy was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 9 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

He replied, and we have a winner (kinda)!

 

“Games with over 2.5 goals…”

Spurs v Bournemouth – oh yes!

QPR v Coventry – uh huh!

Grimsby v Mansfield – nah!

So, £2.27 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd taking it to £13.32 – very acceptable, me thinks…

 

 

Rich Lee is at 60th this week….

 

Ricardo, I need your 3 team treble by Friday morning, please!

 

Need a good slice on here mate!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

“Number One”:

Dan Wayman is still top, extending the lead to 26 points ahead of Charlie H who, in turn, is three points ahead of Peter M in third…

 

 

Two crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

“Watch Out!“:

Patricia Fernandez remains bottom, eighteen points behind Howard T who, in turn, is 10 points off Lily T…

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 27 places is Will Oppong – honourable mentions go to Matthew M (+21), Olly O (+23), and Rob C (+23).

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Haven’t You Heard”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 29 places were Tom Morley & Ben Hogwood – a dishonourable mention goes to Bijay L (-20)

“Weather To Fly”:

This week in 2015...

“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 Row…”

 

This week…

“Imagine one of your best mates is sitting atop the Scottish Championship with a city famous for its comic clowns (we won’t mention their up-to-1983 policy on Catholics..) – you’d be made up, right?

Imagine if, in the same week, you managed to record your SECOND weekly win in the same season in your PAS history EVER!

Double made up?

Triple joy??!

Boastful even?

That’s exactly what happened to our favourite Polski PAS son, Rowan Marriott 41 (6) this week – imagine??!

Surely, you feel like you’ve won the Lottery Row…”

 

Another £20 coming your way then fella!

 

Oh. And…

12 people scored thirty points or more this week – Charlie H & Darren McC went close and, were it not for a 93rd minute goal for Plymouth, a resurgent Paul H would have taken the spoils…oooof!

 

 

 

“The Loneliness Of A Tower Crane Driver”:

A proper barren Week 9 for most, with lots only notching 1 correct score in a “twenty odd points” kinda week.

Nineteen only managed no more than 15 points or less.

5 with no correct scores.

Two got a single digit tally.

Bottom of the pile then, were Lily Templeton & Suman Kaflee 9 (0) – if you’re still here in eight years time mind…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Pah!…most popular score was Toon’s 1-2 win at Brentford  – 22 of youse got that!

 

Eighteen(!) thrilled at the thrilling Celtic 3 Rangers 2

12 got the very annoying last minute spoiling Morecambe 1 Plymouth 3

Twelve somehow stumbled on Southampton 1 Man City 4 (how????)

8 snaffled up the 5 points served up by Liverpool & Arsenal

Reagon K was all over the 0-2 to St Mirren at Hearts

John J got the 1-2 Robins win over Stoke

Paul C was well away with the 0-2 away win for Norwich at Blackburn

Will O just knew Blackpool would score against Cardiff for a 1-3

Jason M got the dull-all at The New Den

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Charlie Harris for his I-love-Colin-and-his-pints-of-raw-eggs inspired, Watford 2 Huddersfield 3!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Dilip Adhikari was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 8 so we asked him (again) to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

It was a no show – again!

Obviously, something lost in translation or people really don’t read this far down…imagine?!

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd taking it to £8.03 – noice!

 

 

Matthew Murphy is at 83rd this week….

 

Mathaus, I need your 3 team treble by Friday morning, please!

 

Don’t let me down, son!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

“Leaders Of The Free World”:

Dan Wayman stays top, now a big big 22 points ahead of Paul H who, in turn, is two points ahead of Neil M in third…he’s on for a title defence, y’know!

 

Three crashed the Top Ten!

 

 

 

 

 

“Forget Myself“:

Patricia Fernandez stays in last place, a big big sixteen points behind Howard T who, in turn, is 7 points off Lily T…she’s on for a wooden spoon defence, y’know!

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Starlings”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 36 places is Darren McCarthy – honourable mentions go to Rowan M (+19), Charlie H (+18), Kate S (+19), Andy C (+21), and Jason M (+15).

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Grounds For Divorce”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 23 places is Suman Kaflee – dishonourable mentions go to Dan C (-16), Dilip A (-19), Danny A (-16), Matt W (-20), Mark S (-17), and Norman L (-17)

 “Yes, away fan. You’re sitting all the way up there, man!”

 

 

 

 

“Dreams Of Children”:

A poor performing week with a ridiculous scrap at the top – so I’ll cut to the chase!

Only six people scored 30 points or more…

Greg F & Max M put in a fair shift but came up short (Greg will be fuming at that 91st minute goal at Kenilworth Road!).

Mike K walloped in the Brighton score only to be scuppered by Barnsley’s 5th in the 93rd minute.

Andy K lashed in the Man City score only to be undone by the 94th minute winner at Hartlepool.

Tom M was robbed by that Campbell goal at Luton…

So that left Neil Osborne 34 (5), rueing a 94th winner at Palace AND a 99th minute winner at Cardiff, but jumping for joy a la Jeff Stelling as that 94th minute Oliver Finney winner secured the £20 weekly prize!

 

After all that Neil, I bet you were as breathless as Roger at Wembley in ’78!

 

 

 

“Funeral Pyre”:

It really was a bonfire for the 35(!) of us who couldn’t score more than fifteen points this week.

Thirteen didn’t notch a correct score.

4 didn’t get a double figure tally!

 

Propping us all up this week was Simon Lindsay 8 (0) – mate, really hasn’t been a week to be Spurs has it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Just, no…most popular score was Forest’s 1-1 draw with Wolves – 18 of youse got that!

 

 

Nine obviously guessed Arsenal would beat Leeds 4-1

Danny B, Neil O & Matthew M had their secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at The Hawthorns

Danny B (again!), David G & Tom M turned up Hull 0 Rotherham 0. Then sobbed a little bit as he thought of those poor souls who were actually there.

Paul C, Lee T & Andy B just knew Blackpool would score against Preston for a 3-1

Chris D, Mike K & Dan C bribed Dan & Dave to tinker with the PAS timelapse cog in the back end and waltzed off with Brighton 3 Brentford 3

Andy K & Justin C somehow stumbled on Man City 4 Liverpool 1 (how????)

Tim P nabbed the form book upsetting Kilmarnock 2 Hearts 1

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Sam Arora for his Emery-is-no-Dick inspired, Chelsea 0 Aston Villa 2!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Dilip Adhikari was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 7 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

It was a no show – not a bratwurst!

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th – up & running!

 

 

Dilip Adhikari is at 33rd this week….wait! what?!

 

Herr A, I need your 3 team treble by Friday morning, please!

 

Surely you’ve read this far this week?!

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

“Precious”:

Dan Wayman is still top, 13 points ahead of Paul C who, in turn, is eight points ahead of Paul F in third…

 

Three crashed the Top Ten!

Patricia Fernandez is still in last place, nine points behind Howard T who, in turn, is 13 points off Paul V…

“The Bitterest Pill (I Ever Had To Swallow)”:

 “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!

 

 

 

 

“Radioaktivität”:

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…

 “How dare you dis Paddy!”

 

 

 

 

“Lucky Star”:

Either you lot are getting better (notice I said “you lot” and not “we”) at this or the bar has been lowered when it comes to winning the weekly £20!

Either way, it’s going to some time for me to get anywhere near being a contender (woe is me…)

So,

yet another hotly contested week saw 11 PASers notch up thirty points or more – and nearly all of them in with a shout right up to Sunday afternoon…

Dave C will be cursing his favourite villain as that Man Yoo 96th minute pen did for his claims to the prize & Danny B must have thought he was in when that “worldy” won it for Sheff U.

Peter M was sitting pretty, when up popped Matthew S courtesy of 3 red cards helping to put him in line for a second share of the spoils in a row…

Then,

from the other side of the earth, Paul Carter 36 (4) produced a Super Sunday to top all Super Sundays – accumulating 24 points from 5 games, including three quite remarkable correct scores from the last 3 games (yep, that’s a 4-1, a 5-0 and a 3-1 and two with +90th minute goals!).

 

You ripper!

 

 

 

 

“Think Of Me”:

When Mr 2-0 gets the sod all points tally he should be getting and you get less, you know it’s a bad bad week…

Sixteen punters got 15 points or less this week, with 6 of those unable to register a correct score.

Only one didn’t break into double figures this week…

 

And that one was you, Stephen Harrison 9 (0)!

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Wow…most popular score was Reading’s 1-1 draw with Hull – 27 of youse got that!

 

 

Twenty three felt Fergie vibes when that Bruno Fernandes 96th minute penalty secured a 5 pointer 3-1 v Fulham

21 got the very annoying last minute spoiling Celtic 3 Hibs 1

Six thrilled at the thrilling Arsenal 4 Paliss 1

5 lapped up the injury time joy of Sheff Utd 3 Blackburn 2

Dave C, Paul C & Jack B got the 5 goal demolition of Grimsby by Brighton

Anders H & Julian F nailed Chelsea 2 Everton 2

Matthew S & Deepak B got Villa 3 Bournemouth 0

Matt W & Andy B quite rightly predicted Boro’s 4-0 thrashing of PNE

Matthew S (again!) got Bradford’s “Desmond” with Hartlepool

David G celebrated the bore draw between Stoke & Norwich

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Orla McKeown for her I-do-like-to-be-beside-the-seaside inspired, Blackpool 1 Coventry City 4!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Anders Hoglund was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 5 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

My word, we were close to a record haul!

At one o’clock on Sunday we were looking at £65 for 83rd slot, but then Bristol City did what Bristol City do, and caved in again when in south Wales…

However, the self-proclaimed “draw liker” came up with two very unlikely draws!

 

Southampton v Spurs – 93rd min pen, tack!

Chelsea v Everton – 89th minute maiden goal, tack!

 

So, £11.05 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd – skol!

 

 

Tom Morley is at 60th this week….

 

Tommy, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please!

 

You have the International Week at your mercy or will you go all Football League?

 

Another winner please!

 “The right words sticking me down, and you respect what I’m doing…”

 

 

 

 

“Kick!”:

It’s all about taking chances and leaving it to chance, innit – ask those who forgot to predict on some games this week…

In a bumper week, 27 players clocked up 30 plus points but none hitting the hallowed 40 point mark.

Congested was an understatement.

Eleven players were all involved in the battle for the weekly £20 prize.

Jasper M bizarrely “missed” all Saturday’s games (but got 3 x correct scores!) and just came up short!

Dan W will be cursing PNE’s 94th minute 2nd goal!

George T put in a shift but actually predicted on all games (perhaps to his detriment)!

Lee T saw Blackburn earn him 5 points in the 90th minute, had a Super Sunday, only then to be undone by Yanited!

Rob C missed Friday’s games and could have been someone…only for Ayr and his beloved Wolves to leave him wanting!

That left Ric Pardoe & Matthew Stafford 38 (6) sharing the spoils – Matthew missed the first two games but got 2 points for his “forgetfulness” as did Ric…but Mr P will also be fuming at that 94th minute PNE goal as without it, it would’ve given him the outright win.

Ouch!

Bravo chicos, hope those tenners go a lot further in Wigan & Stockport than they would in, um, West Didsbury?!

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Feed Me To The Lions”:

At the other end of the scale, 7 people took their chances and got nish joy – scoring under fifteen points or less.

Three punters didn’t even get a correct score.

In a “semana horribilis” for la familia del Presidente,  Julian Fernandez 10 (0) propped up the table and saved his nephew, niece & brother the mother of all humiliations…

Phew!

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Blimey…most popular score was Burnley’s 3-0 win over Wigan – 35 of youse got that!

 

Eighteen saw their typo come good on the 3-1 game at Spurs

17 just knew Boro wouldn’t keep a clean sheet for a 1-3 at Swansea

Eleven quite rightly predicted Rangers’ 3-0 “thrashing” of Raith

9 put us all to shame by predicting Hearts 0 Celtic 3

Eight obviously guessed Chelsea would beat Leicester 1-3

Seven believed in Bristol Rovers. A 1-3 kinda belief…

7 more we’re so happy for Leeds 2-2 Brighton, they will actually wear that ballet dress…

Six got on the 3-1 party bus & celebrated Shrewsbury 3 Morecambe 1

Lisa W used her Championship nous to land Norwich 0 Sunderland 1

Danny A spotted the 0-1 Sheffield wobble at home to Luton

Lee T revelled in the majesty of Arsenal’s super 0-3 showing at Fulham

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, goes to El Presidente for my it’s-my-only-chance-at-a-mention-these-days inspired, Crystal Palace 0 Man City 1!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Sam Osmond was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 4 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

 

And guess what?!

 

Boom!

 

So, £5.02 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd – that’s the way to do it!

 

 

Anders Hoglund is at 83rd this week….

 

Mr H, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please!

 

Can you make it a double treble? Has the Swedish Allsvenskan started yet?
