Get ready people – PAS Lucky 13 Winter 13 is nearly here!

Hola!

Are you ready? I think we are…

We need you to do AT LEAST the following AS SOON AS YOU CAN! (yep, it’s that important i’m cyber-SHOUTING!)

1) You’ve had your log-in details – have you logged in? Go to www.pabspace.co.uk (bookmark it!!!)

Have you changed your password? You really can you know & you need to cos those new ones are quite devilish aren’t they?!

Then log in again & get used to doing it cos it’s gonna happen a lot over the next 13 weeks or so. Oh, and make a note of your new memorable password & keep it somewhere safe!

2) Have a play & explore of the site – we made it all for you!

Stick some scores in just for the hell of it, maybe put a 10-0 in for a laugh, a Man Yoo win or a loads of 2-0’s – yeah crazy stuff! Fear not though as you can change/edit them as many times as you like until 1 minute before the kick off time! (but maybe leave the Man Yoo one hehehe…)

3) Check out the new “Bet of the Week” that EVERYONE contributes to!

Follow the instructions on screen and we’ll do the rest (but cast your votes well before 10am on Saturday please as that’s the point where we get the abacus out to see where the money is going)

4) PAY YOUR MONEY!

If you already have, thanks, you’re a star! If you haven’t, get a wriggle on and get it sorted as soon as please!

5) Any questions, queries, praise, criticism, insights or ideas please send it all to the following email address

Champions League 2011: Final Result

…congratulations to Gareth Morgan on his CL victory – surely the only Sp*rs fan with a smile on his face!

That concludes the season, once again, thank you all for taking part – we’ll see you in September…

Cheers,
Pab


Spring Cup 2013: Final Result

Congrats to Paul Campbell completing only the second ever League & Cup double!

I’m sure he has his beady eye on the CL next season.

Speaking of which…

Cheers,
Pab


Spring Cup 2013: Final update…

PASers,

This year’s PAS Cup Final will be contested by last year’s losing finalist (and this year’s CL finalist!) Gareth Morgan & our current League champion, Paul Campbell.

Potential doubles all round then…!

Attached is the scoresheet just in case you’re curious… & you’ll be updated on the result.

Cheers,
Pab

PS – FYI Mr 2-0s &#pound;20 went to these guys yesterday – MCRs homeless have had enough PAS money of late!


L13 Spring 2013: Week 13 Final Table & Season Roundup

Thanks again for taking part – I would say it’s been a pleasure but posting my lowest finish EVER put a dampener on that :-(

Congrats to all the winners – your prizes will be with you soon!

“Towering”:
You have to say if you can climb from being around the 40th-50th mark early doors and then remain in the Top 5 for over half the season AND reach the PAS Cup Final you really are consistent!
Hats off to & congrats then to Paul Campbell 339 (50) – you’re a winner!
And you could yet be a double winner (unlike RVP, ahem….)
Paul had a 5 point lead over Neil Osborne in second place, who just couldn’t quite manage the same levels and in turn finished 2 points ahead of Danny Ashworth in third place just running out of steam when it mattered! (Oh Danny boy…)
Just one point behind, Paul Carter, with his impressive array of weekly prizes & Cup booty, ended up in fourth spot & old skooler Ryan Graves returned to the fold to scoop 5th place (like riding a bike eh Ryan?!).
Top girl goes to Kate Hopper who had a fine season (albeit with some coaching from the sidelines!) in 6th with Dan Pelgrom in seventh (notching another Top Ten finish) place 1 point above Tony Morris (syndicate bragging rights?!) in eighth.
Finishing ninth was Tony Bowley (who joins our champion trying to deny Gareth M a Cup via the CL Final!) just above James Challinor in 10th place (currently being cursed by Will O a mere 3 correct score behind in the hinterland that is 11th!) netting the last of the “big prizes”
“Inferno”:
You have to say even our champion couldn’t match the consistency level of Harry Birkner 207 (15) who takes the wooden spoon this season with gusto!
Rob C made a gallant effort over the last few weeks to rival our basement boy though, even making me look good in the process! Shocker!
Spot Prizers:
OK, you have finished on these positions and you HAVE won those prizes!
Will O on 11th, Stephen S on 12th, Mark S on 13th, Clare T on 17th Tom A & Neil M on 23rd, Pete B on 27th, Sam A & Jamie T on 31st, Stuart L on 33rd, Jon T on 34th, Olly O on 38th, Dan H on 43rd, Ciaran McG on 48th, Scott H on 49th, Mark F on 50th, Jason M on 55th, Jay H on 60th, Mr 2-0 on 66th, Greg S on 67th, Martin S on 68th, Howard T on 71st, Anders H on 77th, Alex R on 81st & Rob C on 83rd.
*** All prize money will be winging its way over this weekend – promise! ***
Champions League 2013/14:
In order to be invited to enter the PAS CL 2013/14 you had to finish in the Top 32 after 13 weeks of play. Sneaking the last spot… Jamie Tofeili!
If you’ve finished in the Top 32 you HAVE qualified for the PAS Champions League – if you so wish!
You can say “no thanks” if you want but why would you do that eh?!
It will cost you £25 (“Winter 13” & CL Group stages) but remember you are guaranteed entry to PAS Lucky 13 Spring 14 (if you qualify for the CL knockout stages or not!) and at the reduced rate £20 – bargain!
Plus, seeing as you’re *that good* at PAS, you’ll probably be in the PAS Cup anyway fighting on three fronts for glory & cash and who knows, maybe a historic treble!
And Another Thing:
the other little bits…
Mark Seels picked up an additional £15 for getting the Best Weekly Score of the Season – 45(8)
Ryan Brady picked up £12 for getting the Best Correct Score of the Season – San Marino 0 England 8.
PAS Champions League 2012/13:
Final: Tony Bowley v Gareth Morgan – 11/25 May ’13
PAS Cup 2013: Final:
Paul Campbell v Gareth Morgan – 11/25 May ’13
Congrats to Gareth M for reaching both finals setting himself up for an unprecedented Cup double!
Fear not! You will ALL be kept in the loop on the progress & results of both Finals!
Plaudits:

Thanks again to all for taking time and bothering to enter, we couldn’t do it without you!
And a final big thank you to Dave N & new IT-whizz-on-the-block Dan H for providing all the behind the scenes techky stuff to enable another great season…

We really are *this* close to going fully online next season – imagine, no more Word docs to fill in & send by email!

For definite, we’ll see the Top 32 (for PAS CL) in September when kick off PAS Lucky 13 Winter 13, hope the rest of you will join in too!

Remember, spread the word and get all your people involved for next season – have a fab summer!

Cheers,
Pab

L13 Spring 2013: Week 13 Update…

Apologies for the delay… full final table round up will be with you later this week (we like a bit suspense!) and for our Cup finalists, the Cup Final scoresheets will be with you quite soon too (we’re just re-jigging the format a bit to make it more interesting!)

RVP:
Possibly the best week to get a hi-score? Our scouse friend out in the desert will agree & no doubt be sneaking off to an illegal drinking den to celebrate. Yep, Mark J Brown 38 (8) has the SLP results to thank for nudging Simon Linds down to runner up so he could snatch the final £20 of the season…
QPR:
Not the best week to get a lo-score? (is any week?!) Unfortunately Francesca Fernandez 7 (0) did just that and has been sent to bed without any tea so she can think about just what she’s done…
Correct Score of the Week:
Not a bumper week for many… most popular score was Stoke’s 1-0 win over Norwich – 22 of you got that!
6 got the 2-2 at the DW, 4 got Huddersfield’s 1-3 v the Robins and 8 got the 2-2 at the Riverside.
4 got Notts County 2 Coventry City 2 & 4 got the 1-0 between The Cakes & The Jambos and Paul V & Olly O got the 3-1 for Ipswich-Birmingham.
Louise B / Jazz S / Jack B got Reading 0 QPR 0.
However, this week’s best correct score goes to Jack Buxton (again!) for his Stuart McCall inspired, Motherwell 3 Celtic 1.
PAS Champions League 2012/13:
Semi-final 2nd leg & aggregate scores available.
Congrats to our finalists – and losers, there’s &#pound;37.50 winging its way over to help you get over not getting over the last hurdle…
PAS Cup 2013:
Final: Paul Campbell v Gareth Morgan – 11/25 May 2013
Bet of the Week:
Frankie selected No.3 & Paul Campbell didn’t send us any selections, so that’s &#pound;3 on BotW prize slot 67th…

Cheers,
Pab


L13 Spring 2013: Week 12 Roundup

Apologies for the delay…

Week 13 scoresheets back by 19.34 on Friday please

PAS CL SF home leg people – don’t forget your joker!

“All I Need Is Everything”:
How’s this for double? A 1-3 & a 4-1 – with a 92nd minute consolation goal thrown in for good measure? Good eh?!
More than good for Will Oppong 37 (5) this week as he steals the second to last weekly £20 and sets himself up nicely for even more prize money… Well done Willo, you can put that towards my part of my season ticket next season if you want?!
“Oblivious”:
How’s this for a treble? Michelle Fernandez, Louise Briggs & John Street 9 (0)?
Shocking eh?!
Correct Score of the Week:
Ahhhhh, that’s better… most popular scores were Norwich’s 2-1 win over Reading and Ipswich’s 1-1 draw at Sheffield Wednesday – 15 of you got them!
7 got Leicester’s 2-2 draw at Selhurst Park, 7 got Liverpool’s two-two with Chelsea & 6 got the 2-2 between The Saints & The Staggies.
13 got Man Utd’s 3-0 win over Villa, 9 got Hibs 0 Aberdeen 0 and 4 got Chesterfield’s 1-3 win at Fleetwood.
Pete B/Neil O/Will O nailed the four-one in Glasgow & Frankie F/Neil T/Dan A nabbed the 0-0 at Swansea. Craig B & Olly O got Derby 3-1 Peterboro.
Paul Car got Spurs 3 Man City 1 (boo!) & Will O got Motherwell’s 1-3 v Dundee Utd.
However, this week’s best correct score goes to Francesca Fernandez for her 9 nanny inspired, Hull 0 Bristol City 0.
Bet of the Week:
Frankie selected No.65 & Rowan Marriott went the way of most this season…
Next up is No.3. Hello Paul Campbell!

Table News:

“The Boy Wonders”:
All change at the top! Danny Ashworth looks to have timed it to perfection taking a 1 point lead over Neil O with Paul Cam a further 2 points behind in third as the title goes to the wire! Will O crashes the Top Ten at eight.
“Pillar to Post”:
Harry Birkner needs a miracle week to get off the bottom, now twenty one points behind Savan A who in turn is a further two points off Stuart F…

L13 Spring 2013: Week 11 Roundup

“2+2=5”:
Securing a nine pointer at Brentford had Danny A realising the assumption made last week that sunshine improves your game. However a 95th minute consolation goal in Peterborough shifted this week’s £20 over to Simon Lindquist 39(7). Congrats Simon, I trust it was sunny in Woking as per usual this week?
“Let Down”:
I got one thing right last week stating that Ashworth, Fernandez & Briggs would all be involved this week. Sadly it’s the wrong end for me and I was only spared the ignominy of finishing bottom thanks to one correct score. That (dis)honour goes to Louise Briggs 12(0) – oops, too much Rosada maybe?!
Correct Score of the Week:
How do you do it? I’ve forgotten… most popular score was Bolton’s 1-2 win in the West Country – 19 of you got that!
5 got Birmingham’s 2-2 draw at the King Power & 10 got Arsenal’s 3-1 over Norwich.
Stephen S/Tony M/Matt W got the 3-1 between The Magpies & The U’s.
Ian P & Mark J B got Hartlepool’s 0-1 win over Tranmere & Simon Lindq & Ben H got Peterborough 3 Watford 2 and Tom A got Brighton’s 0-2 win at Boro.
Craig B nailed the three-zero in Cardiff.
However, this week’s best correct score goes to Danny Ashworth for his 9 point inspired, Brentford 3 Portsmouth 2.
Bet of the Week:
Frankie selected No.79 & Alex Rossi went the way of most this season…
Next up is No.65. Hello Rowan Marriott!

Table News:

“Everything In Its Right Place”:
No change at the top, Paul Campbell has a 6 point lead over Danny A with Neil O a further 5 points behind in third as the title battle bubbles up nicely. Dan P crashes the Top Ten at ten.
“Give Up The Ghost”:
Harry Birkner as always, stays bottom but now only ten points behind Yours Truly (it can’t happen can it??!) who in turn is a further six points off Stuart F…
“The Bends”:
Highest climber this week, up a whopping 15 places is Simon Lindquist – honourable mentions go to Tony M (+14) & Steve M (+11).
“Like Spinning Plates”:
Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 16 places is Louise Briggs – dishonourable mentions go to Pete B (-13) and Martin S (-14).
