“Fast off to heaven just like Moses on a motorbike”:

He always raises eyebrows here at PAS Towers with his um, eccentric, scores, but this week its paid off! Savan Arora 34 (8) walks off with £20, the best weekly score of the season so far and much kudos in his fellow PAS playing family circles…

“It is time to dissolve”:

I blame Sp*rs & Liverpool. Rob Currin 11 (0) still hasn’t come down from cloud nine… obviously.

Correct Score of the Week:

A few good un’s & one very good one… – most popular score was Bristol City 1 Cardiff 2 – 25 of you got that!

However, this week’s best correct score, and new best correct score of the season, goes to Scott Harrison for his inspired Swansea 1 Man City 0.

Bet of the Week:

After last week’s mini high, we crashed back to the normal low…

Cheers,
Pab

“Driving big cars, spending twenties and tens”:

He sends perfect polls! He sends himself to PAS Euro 12! He sends cheques! He sends himself hurtling up the league! He sends himself top of the best weekly scores! I’ll be sending Martin Stafford 38 (7) £20! Let’s hope he can send me some winning BotWs!

“Don’t push me cause I’m close to the edge”:

He should send himself to the naughty step. Or to Coventry. Or an S.O.S. Stephen Peaston 11 (0) is wishing he didn’t send his scores in…

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Matt Gingell for his inspired Leeds 0 Southampton 1.

Bet of the Week:

We won!!! Well, Danny A won and only an inept Chelsea kept us from a bumper payout! Still, we’ll take whatever we can get and £2 is a nice foundation to build on for spot prize slot 67th. Danny adds a nugget to his £20 too for all his hard work. No pressure Martin S…

Cheers,
Pab

“There’s a time for the second best”:

The pea split! Danny Ashworth 33 (4) who shared the prize last week, came back to claim the whole lot this week! £20 to you bruv (in law) – you’re as lucky as United at Norwich!

“You can holler, you can wail”:

Speaking of brothers, sometime’s you despair… Julian Fernandez 6 (0) is as unlucky & downtrodden as Pompey… SIX???!!!

Correct Score of the Week:

“5-2! We beat the scum 5-2…” – most popular score was Norwich City 1 Man Utd 2 – 25 of us got that!

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Danny Ashworth for his inspired Inverness C T 1 Rangers 4.

Bet of the Week:

Two sets of bets, two sets of fail – it’s like the teams know we’re betting on both to score and not complying! Danny A gets another go this week to try and break the duck…

Cheers,

“Keep it in boom and never will we slander”:

Very tight finish this week, so tight in fact we had two peas in a pod (if the pod stretched from Wigan to Stalybridge) that couldn’t be split. Well done to Neil Birchall & Danny Ashworth 31 (5) who walk away with £10 apiece. It’s nice to share…

“The ills of the world make the situation lighter”:

…while at the other end, the sharing wasn’t of the good kind – Simon Lindquist & Ellen Fernandez 13 (0) had a week to forget…

I’ll leave this to Nick H…

“Well that was a shocker – only managed one of the five :((“

Indeed…

Cheers,

“So you find a way to take a little with you”:

A pretty miserable week of predicting due to mad results and horrid weather. However, Nick Hogwood 32 (6) will say otherwise as he charted his way successfully past his nearest rival to the £20 prize with a lot of thanks going to Man Citeh’s 0-1 at Villa on the last game of the weekend. I suggest you stick that lot on Norwich Nick…

“We knew we only had a little while”:

A pretty miserable week of predicting due to mad results and horrid weather – “we agree!” say Reda Allam & Mahli Gupta 8(0) for obvious reasons.

Correct Score of the Week:

Another round of fine predicting? – most popular score was Reading’s 2-0 win over Coventry – 31 of us got that!

7 got the 2-0 at Goodison, 4 got Millwall’s 0-0 v Derby and 4 got AFC Bournemouth’s 0-0 away at Hartlepool. Three got the stalemate at St Mirren Park.

Sam A & Pete B got the 1-4 between Dunfermline & Rangers and Simon Linds & Alex R got Swansea 2 Norwich 3.

Dave N & Rob C got Hull City 3 Bristol City 0 and Neil T & Nick H got Villa 0 City 1.

Craig B got Leeds’ woeful result at home to Brighton.

However, this week’s best correct score, and new correct score of the season, goes to Rowan Marriott for his inspired Blackburn 3 QPR 2.

Bet of the Week:

Some things never change and Simon Lindq chose to keep it that way by electing to snub the recommended “Goal Rush” to win exactly £0. Oh dear…

Table News:

“To have it all and still want more”:

Matt Gingell hits top and goes alphabetically clear of Simon Lindq who in turn is 3 points ahead of Nick H in third.

“In the end nothing comes easy”:

Ooops! Reda Allam goes down 4 places to the bottom of the pile four points behind Mahli G who in turn is three points behind Andy C.

“In the middle keep ticking over”:

PAS Champions League 2011/12:

The knock out stages are off and running – see CL2011-12 for full round up. It was a pretty even contest all round bar one tie and there seems to be a scant regard for “jokers” creeping in…

PAS Euro 2012:

In order to be invited to enter the PAS Euro 2012 (and pay a reduced entry fee of £10 for the whole tournament!) you will have to finish in the Top 16 after 13 weeks of play. Currently sneaking the last spot is…still, new boy, Jack Buxton.

PAS Champions League 2012/13:

In order to be invited to enter the PAS Champions League 2012/13 you will have to finish in the Top 32 after 13 weeks of play. Currently sneaking the last spot is…Ledsonian “App King”, Steve Tagger.

And Another Thing:

Not paid yet?! Get your payment across as soon as please! The list of shame will be published next week…

Oh. If a game is postponed before you send your scoresheet in, please don’t mark it up P-P as the matrix can’t cope with letters! If you could just leave it blank (or put the score you thought it would’ve been) it’d be most appreciated…

A cautionary tale (part 743) – do not attempt to do your scoresheet when you’re dying from a hangover as a result from your first session after a month’s “detox”. Especially when a 3 year old wants “to help”. And when your missus doesn’t know how to save a Word doc… Why? Cos you’ll end up sending the wrong scores out, that’s why! As you will have seen from my last email, I included Mrs F’s scores (albeit with Frankie’s name at the bottom – don’t ask…) and didn’t realise until last night after the Villa game. Rules is rules though, and I have to take the Mr 2-0 score as part of the punishment for being a tardy fool. On the brightside though, I earned one whole extra point! And even brighter, the fact that Norwich won at Swansea, I now earn £25 for every point Norwich collect for the rest of the season – come on you yelllllllllllllllllllowwwwwwws!

Cheers,
Pab
