L13 Winter 2006 : Week 13 – BotW

Going into the last week, the betting syndicate pot is down to £3.75 and Will O hasn’t come back with any selections, so up steps our mystery masked “pro-punter” to put us back in profit (or not).

£2.50 treble – Newcastle/Preston/Cardiff – Returns £16.50

£2.50 HT/FT – Everton v Chelsea – Draw HT/Chelsea FT – Returns £10

Result: Lose! Down to -£1.25.


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 12 Roundup

Harveys Bristol Cream :
Has he started to stumble? His lead is a mere 14 points! Steve Tagger remains in pole position and barring an all time low score will be pocketing at least £100 next week….
Eggnog :
With Will O clocking up a winning score this week it leaves Jon Allin stranded in the wooden spoon position a full 10 points behind Danny A.
Drinking Up :
Highest climber this week, and he’ll be glad of it – trust me, is Neil T (+7) into the coveted 32nd slot – others of note are Matt G (+5) into 5th and hunting 3rd, Dave McS (+5) to 18th, Tapiwa M (+6) continuing a late comeback to 21st, Lisa G (+6) putting hubby Mark to shame in 24th and Michelle F (+6) 3 points of 2007 qualification in 35th
Down In One :
Falling the furthest (farthest?), even further than the journey from Mancland to Devon is Andy C (-8) to 30th – other losers are Mr 2-0 (-6) to 20th (good!), Dave N (-6) to 26th, Watford keeper Richard L (-7) to 31st and Gary B (-6) to 38th
Close & A Cigar! :
Jamie S (non-mover) stays on11th virtue of an inferior correct score difference
Spotters :
Neil M (-4) on 17th, Ben A (+2) on 23rd, Simon S (-4) on 39th and John W (non mover) on 47th.
Cup 2007 :
At the end of Week 13 you need to be where Neil T (+7) is to qualify for the Lucky 13 Spring 2007 & the Big PAS Cup!
Michael Essien’s Lucky Strike :
In a week that saw the tables being turned upside down (see BotW) Will Oppong 38 (5) struck a blow for the minnows by claiming the £20 this week. Well done Willo, you can treat yourself to a hotdog at the Arse now….
Michael Essien’s Miss :
It’s all gone horribly wrong for the Pilgrim who entered the PAS fray late doors this season. Should he have stuck with the Mr 2-0 scores? Jon Allin 14 (0) must have that Armada feeling…
Correct Score of the Week :
Nuff people got Man Yoo and Liverpool, Dave McS got Rangers 3-0, Lisa G got a very commendable Colchester 1-3 at Palace and Will O nailed the Bolton 4-0. However, Hitman Howie T wears the crown this week for his Hearts 4 Motherwell 1 prediction. Baby, let’s go go…
Bet of the Week :
Aarrrgggghhhhhhhhhh! I didn’t hold out much hope with the speculative win/draw acca’s but the £3 main bet was a sure thing for around £30! It was all going swimmingly until Gretna (the Chelsea of second-rate Scottish football) somehow conspired to go 0-1 up, get a man sent off for “foul and abusive language” (you might as well punch someone on your way off for that!) and go on to lose to 2nd bottom Aidrie Utd by 4 bloomin’ goals to 2. I hate accumulators! Going into the final week we are now &pound1.25 out of pocket so it’s all down to Will O to save face/the day….

Cheers,
Pab.


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 12 – BotW

Now then. We currently stand at £3.75 to the good – I’ve prepared a bookie bashing Chrimbo hamper – gorge yerselves…

&pound3 win accumulator Man U, Spurs, Liverpool, Plymouth, Celtic and Gretna (potential return of £29)

£1 draw treble Chelsea, Birmingham and Walsall (potential return of £40)

50p draw accumulator Chelsea, Birmingham, Walsall and Rotherham (potential return of £68)

50p win accumulator Watford, Southampton, Nottm Forest and Villa (potential return of £18)

Result: Lose! Down to £3.75.


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 11 Roundup

Apex :
His lead seemed unsurpassable last week and it’s now been stretched to 20 points from the chasing Jazz S. Steve Tagger is all set to get v close to the best winning score ever posted for a season… (Jazz S – 391, in case you we’re wondering..)
Nadir :
Looks set for a straight scrap for the wooden spoon between Jon A and bottom placed Will O who closed the gap to three points this week.
Rising :
Up 13 places to 3rd I go, la la, la la! (and only a mere 30 points off top spot!) – others of note are Tapiwa M (+6) in 27th and Gary B (+9) in 32nd
Sinking :
Whooomp! There he is! Julian F is down 12 places to 37th – others of note are Ben McK (-6) in 29th, Neil T (-8) in 39th and, sacre bleu!, Michelle F (-6) in 41st (welcome back from gay Paris honey!)
Close & A Cigar! :
Jamie S (+1) is up to 11th and just, erm, no points and, ummm, no correct scores off the prizes….if it was Week 13 Jamie, you’d be sharing £25 with Matt G
Spotters :
Karl C (+5) on 17th, Dave McS (-5) on 23rd, Neil T (-8) on 39th and John W (-4) on 47th
Cup 2007 :
At the end of Week 13 you need to be where Gary B (+9) is to qualify for the Lucky 13 Spring 2007 & the Big PAS Cup!
Two Dodgy Pens & One Offside! :
Well that lording it round the house did last long for Michelle F as yours truly stormed Week 11, winning it quite handsomely (natch!) with 42 (7) – and that’s without the Leeds – Barnsley 2-2 I called (Jesus, I’m ace!) that had to be voided due to an admin error by one of the minions…. I apologise to the couple of other players who also missed out on 4 points. You just can’t get the staff these days!
Off Work With A Faceache :
He’s not really my brother, he’s that milkman’s – the one that didn’t like football… Julian F plods in with 11 (0)
Correct Score of the Week :
Not many about this week… I got Palace 3 QPR 0, Rich L got Brum 3 Plymouth and Karl C got Arsenal 3 Sp*rs 0. I think you know who got score of the week.
Bet of the Week :
We are now down to £8.75 profit due to the latest treble chance loss. I’ll have a think and try and come up with some plum selections just in time for Chrimbo.

Cheers,
Pab.


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 11 – Correction!

As pointed out by the missus and the visiting Mark F (ad infinitum) and the vigilant Simon L – the Leeds Barnsley game was listed incorrectly as Barnsley are away and not at Oakwell.

Hands up, our mistake.

This result is now null and void – watch it finish 2-2 now just to rub it in…

Apologies,
P-A-S Quality Control Team


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 11 – BotW

Our profits are falling fast as we enter the last three weeks – my lovely wifey has put a lot of thought into spending this weeks £5…

Leeds, Reading and Burnely to win.

If that ridiculous threesome comes in we’ll get back about £135 as it’s about 26/1 depending where you bet.

Result: Lose! Down to £8.75.


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 10 Roundup

Haircut 100 :
As it’s Week 10 it’s really easy to work out the average scores…and Steve Tagger is averaging nearly 30 points a week! Safe to say his lead of 17 points is looking pretty unassailable…
David James’s Barnet :
Some 20 points on average behind the leader is Will Oppong who now finds himself 13 points away from 2nd bottom.
Hopeless Hair Do :
Highest climber is cockernee WHam geezer (from Kent no less!) Matt W, up 12 places to 20. Others moving significantly up are Dave N & Neil T (+10) and Michelle F (+11)
Hair Don’t :
Falling furthest is Manc Citeh laydeee (from Urmston!) Pam R, down 11 places to 46. Others moving significantly the wrong way are Ben H (-10), and Martin S & Lisa G (-6).
Close & A Cigar! :
Current “Geordies FFL” leader Stephen P (+3) is just 3 points off the prize money places.
Spotters :
Scott A (+1) on 17th, Ben McK (+7) on 23rd, Mark G (-4) on 39th and Howard T (-2) on 47th.
Cup 2007 :
At the end of Week 13 you need to be where Mark McD (-5) is to qualify for the Lucky 13 Spring 2007 & the Big PAS Cup!
Hooray! Hooray! Hooraaaaay! :
As stated before, I would rather eat glass than fix a week and give the missus bragging rights in Casa Fernandez. So, until I produce a winning week score or get into the Top Ten, Michelle Fernandez 33(7) will be lording it up clutching a crisp twenty and mocking in my general direction. Oh joy! Mrs F just edged out Matt W courtesy of two more correct scores…
Boooo! Hisssss! :
The slide continues for Pam Riding 11(0) who seems determined to get the wooden spoon after a promising first couple of weeks.
Correct Score of the Week :
Loads got Colchester, Forest, Tottenham and Rangers, Mark G / Dave N / Danny A got Dunfermline 0 Aberdeen 3 and Scott Aslett somehow managed to get Motherwell 4 Falkirk 2! Correct, he is now in the “Best Correst Score of the Season” slot…
Bet of the Week :
Well, he got the Welsh part of the treble right but failed with the other two “nailed on” selections. Greg E has now taken the profit down to £13.75 and next up is Michelle F – I think I know what that bet will be already…
Thought of the Week :
Now that Phil has gone, why has Che Neville got “G. Neville” on his back?

Cheers,
Pab.


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 10 – BotW

Next up to increase the profit and buck the trend of late is Greg “Best Disco In Town” Edwards – he’s a Liverpool supporting Gogg who would probably prefer to see us all lose a fiver than tip us a winner…

A home win triple: Aston Villa, Preston NE and Wrexham

I think he means a “treble” – £5 on that will pocket you around £44 – good luck!

Result: Lose! Down to £13.75.


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 9 Roundup

I’ll get straight to it as it’s late – apologies to those who did well and for those who did bad, you’re off the hook this week… (that’ll be me then!)

Winner :
Greg Edwards 44 (6)
Worst :
Jon Allin 15 (1)
Correct Score of the Week :
Danny B – Coventry 3 Sheff Wed 1
Bet of the Week :
Rubbish! Now down to £18.75…

Cheers,
Pab


L13 Winter 2006 : Week 9 – BotW

Ciaran McG has run screaming to the Wicklow mountains at the thought of submitting a “suggested flutter” so I’ll take up the task this week (I’m nice like that!)

£2 win accumulator on Arsenal / Chelsea / Bristol City / Accrington Stanley (should return about £12)

£2 away win double on Liverpool / Plymouth (should return about £12)

£1 correct score on Chelsea 5 West Ham 1 (should return £41 if you back it on Sporting Odds – Ladbrokes we’re offering 20’s!) – I had a dream/nightmare last night where I was in a pub (natch) and had money on Chelsea 5-0 when someone watching Geoff Stelling cheerily piped up that West Ham had scored a last minute goal…..

Result: Lost! Down to £18.75.
