“All the things I take”:

You did well to get double figures this week, and to get more than double that is quite an achievement! So, well done to Julian Fernandez 22 (4) in fluking this week’s £20 – a timely prize that he will no doubt turn into Yen for his forthcoming grand holiday… I dunno, one week my missus, then my bruvver, what next? Frankie winning a week??!

“And the books don’t lie”:

And neither does the matrix! (well, sometimes it does when we don’t put the scores in properly…) Hanging their heads in (sorta) shame are Sam Arora & Josh Hirst 5(0)…

Correct Score of the Week:

Surprisingly good predicting this week…. – most popular score was Birmingham 1 Spurs 1 – 20 of you got that! Rob C & Vim G got Swansea’s 1-3 against Ipswich, Mark J B & Julian F got the 1-1 between Chelsea and The Toffees, 4 got Derby 1 Norwich City 2, Dave C got Blackburn 3-0 Wolves, Mark J B got the 5 pointer 3-0 involving Millwall and Scunthorpe and Louise B got the 1-1 between Cardiff & Preston… Julian F got the 3-1 at The Hawthorns. However, this week’s best correct score goes to Jason Morris for his inspired Watford 3 Leicester City 2.

Bet of the Week:

Nope, another loser which means BotW spot prize slot 23rd will be worthless – boo!

Table News:

Shaun Backhouse stays top, now a big 18 points ahead of Tony M with Neil O a further 15 points behind in third. Neil T moves into the Top Ten intent on making money just to wave it in my face along with his Dream Team prize money and wager off me – grrrrrrr……

“And my blues, they won’t go away”:

Savan Arora is off the bottom, now 4 points ahead of Catriona Johnstone. Neil B is five points further up as the battle royale at the foot of the table looks like it’s down to these three…

“The sun is shining”:

He only entered PAS to beat his brother and not only is he 43 points ahead of him; he’s just won a weekly prize to boot! Tony Morris 29 (5) is having a fine debut just pipping a host of you to the £20. Play nice now Tony….

“I caught a glimpse and it’s not me”:

Actually it is you! Yes, you Anders Hoglund 6(0)! Judging by the last few weeks’ scores, our Week 6 winner is really really tired or his 4 month old is doing his scores for him…

Correct Score of the Week:

If only Ipswich had scored one more goal…. – most popular score was Fulham 1 Birmingham 1 & Spurs 2 Liverpool 1 – 21 of you got those scores! 6 got Bolton’s 2-2 against Blackpool, 5 got the 0-0 between Barnsley and The Hornets, 5 got Middlesboro 2 Hull City 2, 4 got Brighton 1-1 FC Utd, 8 got the 5 pointer stalemate involving Hamilton and St Mirren and 8 got the 1-1 between Droylesden & Orient… Simon Linds got West Ham 3 Wigan 1, Jess H got PNE 0 Millwall 0 and Mark Sh got Hibs 0 St Johnstone 0. Martin S & Tony got the 1-1 at St James’s. However, this week’s best correct score goes to Francesca Fernandez for her nan- inspired Swansea 1 Portsmouth 2.

Bet of the Week:

Surprise, surprise, another shocker…

“Walking 'round the room singing…”:

Back in 1989 I started PAS just to mug off my then work colleagues cos I knew more about footy than they did. How? Cos I pored over results, stats, tables, form etc for mere pleasure and used this to take money off unsuspecting “victims”. As PAS snowballed to become what it is today, I’ve found myself second in the all-time earners chart (a poor second behind the Jazzenator mind) so my ambitions were realised on an even grander scale! However, over the last few seasons my “knowledge” isn’t paying dividends thanks to unpredictable English & Scottish leagues and a new breed of PASers are reaping the rewards! Yes, Michelle Fernandez 38(6) has won her 3rd £20 in two seasons thanks to her “you read out the fixtures and I’ll think of a score” technique that takes all over 80 seconds to complete… I want to weep. And we lost to Sp*rs…..

“Things ain't cooking in my kitchen”:

Things are looking up though as my little daughter Frankie Fernandez 10 (1) is obviously taking after her dad and studying form to ill effect as well! Actually, as her nan does her scores, does that mean I take after my mum??!

Correct Score of the Week:

I hate football…. – most popular score was Blackpool 2 Wolves 1 – 22 of you got that score! 6 got Derby’s 3-2 against Scunthorpe, 6 got the 3-1 between QPR and The Lilywhites, 7 got Liverpool 3 West Ham 0 and 6 got the 2-2 between Sunderland & Everton… Jamie T got Kilmarnock 2 Rangers 3 and Tony S got Sheff Utd 3 Palace 2. Neil B got the 0-1 at the Riverside. However, this week’s best correct score goes to Vim Gupta for his inspired Celtic 1 Dundee Utd 1.

Bet of the Week:

Oh maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, so close but so Huddersfield….

Table News:

“…conquer the blue sky”:

Shaun Backhouse stays top now a quite a big 35 points ahead of the Tony M with Charlie H is a further 4 points behind in third. Dave N moves into the Top Ten intent on making money for a Toon top with “Carroll” on the back for his bairn…

“…going nowhere on the mantlepiece”:

Savan Arora stays to the bottom 2 points adrift of Catriona J. Neil B is only four points further up as the battle royale at the foot of the table continues…

“Well, it's the same room, but everything's different”:

“We stake our claim”:

As my mate at Talkin’ Loud might’ve once said, “Jazz is dead! Long live the new Jazz!”… Yep, Shaun Backhouse 45 (7) is threatening to be Man Yoo to Jazz S’s Liverpool with his second weekly win of the season whilst riding high in the table. Another fine win sir, £20 will be paid to the syndicate post haste!

“Exactly who are you?”:

A joint effort at being completely rubbish this week comes from Savan Arora & Catriona Johnstone 8 (0) – hide behind the sofa when you look at the table…!

Correct Score of the Week:

I have no idea how people got correct scores this week – most popular score was St Johnstone 0 Hearts 2 – 15 of you got that score! 10 got Burnley’s 3-2 against Watford, 7 got the 3-1 between Leeds and The Robins and 4 got Hamilton 1 Inverness 3… Sean P & Stu L got Nottm Forest 0 QPR 0 and Rob C & Dan P got Gillingham 1 Crewe 3. Martin S got the 0-0 at Eastlands and Stu L got Newcastle 0 Fulham 0. However, this week’s best correct score goes to Dave Crisp for his inspired Aston Villa 2 Man Utd 2.
