“I don’t mean to brag or boast just to tell ya I’m great”:

Absolutely smashing the opposition and he had a chance to get the best tally this season, Anders Hoglund 44 (8) takes the weekly prize. Not sure how far £20 will go in Gothenburg, but if he doesn’t spend the dosh on young George, I know a great little mini-golf course he can wile the hours away on…

“You can’t talk because you suffer from paralysis”:

Not even your team humiliating your nearest neighbours can take the pain away from scoring 8 (0)…yes, Geordie Dave Nicklin, it’s you!

Correct Score of the Week:

Tuff week if you’re not a Viking! – most popular score was Barnsley 1 Hull 1 & Portsmouth 2 Nottm Forest 1 – 15 of you got one or both those scores! 6 got Celtic’s 0-3 against St Johnstone, 6 got the 3-1 between Cardiff and The Canaries and 5 got Villa 0 Brum 0… Vim G & Andy C got Palace 0 Swansea 3, Charlie H got Middlesbro 1 Bristol C 2 and Jessica H got Rangers 1 Inverness C T 1. However, this week’s best correct score goes to Anthony Yearwood for his inspired Wolves 2 Man City 1.

Bet of the Week:

Mark F spat his dummy out when I banned his proposed “Canadian” and failed to submit any selections – the good news is that spot prize slot 42nd now has a whole £3 against it!

Table News:

“So be quiet and let an educator teach this”:

Shaun Backhouse stays top now 9 points ahead of Andrew D and these two continue pulling away from the chasing pack as Neil M is a further 11 points behind in third. Tony B moves into the Top Ten intent on keeping his title…

“Cause you’re an eight track tape and I’m a compact disc”:

Mark Shakespeare remains bottom now 5 points adrift of Vim G. Simon Lindq & Savan A are only four points further up as the battle royale at the foot of the table continues!

“I’m like Fats Domino, up on Blueberry Hill”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 27 places is Anders Hoglund – honourable mentions go to Tony B (+13), Mark G (+13), Dan P (+13) and Mr 2-0 (+11).

“From the battles I’ve been havin’ with the smart and the dumb”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 14 places is Dave Nicklin – dishonourable mentions go to Dave C (-11), Andy C (-13), Mark Se (-12), Louise B (-11) and Mark D-S-C (-13)

PAS Cup 2011:

In order to be invited to enter the PAS Cup 2011 (and pay a reduced entry fee!) you will have to finish in the Top 32 after 13 weeks of play. Currently sneaking the last spot is…the music man, Mark Grey.

And Another Thing:

That goal couldn’t have happened to a nicer team….

Cheers,
Pab

“unexpected you pretend…”:

We always have a “yo-yo” player and this season it appears to be Andrew D! From 9(0) last week to 41(7) this, he was just beaten to the post by Mark Fawke 43 (8). Our “Drazic” (remember “Heartbreak High” kids?!) is one of the old skool and hasn’t won some dosh for a while – I remember when he used to spend it on wine, women and erm, wrong but I trust this £20 will be banked for Kid A that is imminently due…

“staring at your hands for the answer”:

Rooney does a u-turn but still it’s grim for our Man Yoo friends! Martin Stafford 8(0) will face a major barracking, from one Wiganer in particular I’ll wager…

Correct Score of the Week:

Bit thin on the ground this week! – most popular score was WBA 2 Fulham 1 – 16 of us got that! 10 got Newcastle’s 1-2 against West Ham, 10 got the 3-0 between Hearts and The Buddies and 12 got Hull 1 Pompey 2! Will O/Scott A/DaveN got Coventry 3 Barnsley 0… However, this week’s best correct score and new best correct of the season so far, goes to Stephen Street for his inspired PNE 4 Palace 3.

Bet of the Week:

This. Is. Not. Good. Another dismal failure…

Table News:

“still concerned you’ve not kicked the habit…”:

Shaun Backhouse stays top now 4 points ahead of Andrew D and these two continue pulling away from the chasing pack as Josh H is a further 9 points behind.

“stick it out until the end”:

Savan A is off the bottom of the pile and now 2 points (and 2 places!) ahead of Mark Shakespeare (did someone say Macbeth?). Gareth M is now only one point from the wooden spoon spot and a real battle royale is developing at the foot of the table!

“curious to see if you would play the same”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 32 places is Mark Fawke – honourable mentions go to Matt G (+14), Stuart L (+15), Rich L (+21), Jason M (+21) and little Anders H (+16).

“remember what you set out to do…”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 23 places is Martin Stafford – dishonourable mentions go to Neil T (-17), Ben H (-13), Gary B (-11), Sean P (-15), Jazz S (-15) and Simon Lindq (-11)

PAS Cup 2011:

In order to be invited to enter the PAS Cup 2011(and pay a reduced entry fee!) you will have to finish in the Top 32 after 13 weeks of play. Currently sneaking the last spot is… the music man, Ben Hogwood.

And Another Thing:

This was the first week Clare T managed to get some scores in and she quite rightly predicted the deluge of 2-0s!

Cheers,
Pab

“Bones are trembling…”:

Oooh it was a right ol’ ding-dong for top spot this week (check out the best correct scores!) with Charlie H narrowly missing out to Sam Arora 38 (5) who just nicked in front thanks to the stalemate at Ewood….Well done Sam, make sure your bruv and Vim G hear all about your twenty quid!

“I don’t know what you came here for”:

It’s dark days being a Man Yoo fan at the moment what with Owen Hargreaves on his way back and the Scouser looking to alienate himself from another set of adoring fans…even darker then for, I-was-there-before-we-bought-the-title, Andrew Darbyshire 9(0)…

Correct Score of the Week:

Blimey, some corkers this week! – most popular score was Wolves 1 W Ham 1 – 18 of us got that! 9 got the 0-0 in Blackburn, Shaun B/Simon Linds/Dave C got Pompey’s 3-2 v Watford and Frankie F/Vicki O/Stephen S got St Mirren’s 2-2 against Hamilton. Will O & Catriona J got the 3-2 between Cardiff and The Robins and Neil T & Charlie H got Blackpool 2 Man City 3! Julian F got Aston Villa 0 Chelsea 0 (thanks to Nigel) and Charlie H got Newcastle 2 Wigan 2. However, this week’s best correct score and new best correct of the season so far, goes to Sam A for his inspired Sheffield Utd 3 Burnley 3. (and he got Port Vale 0 – 0 Gillingham!)

Bet of the Week:

The curse continues as Howard T got it all horribly wrong….

Table News:

“You don’t know how it feels…”:

Shaun Backhouse stays top 2 points ahead of Josh H and these two are now pulling away from the chasing pack as Dave C is a further 8 points behind. Charlie H is the big splash into the Top Ten…

“…don’t bother me at all”:

Vim G is off the bottom of the pile and now 1 point ahead of his old mucker Savan Arora (oh how his brother is going to luv this!). Mark Sh is now only two points from the wooden spoon spot…

“Maybe we could make this work”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 33 places is Sam Arora (oh how his brother is going to hate this!) – honourable mentions go to Richard H (+13), Charlie H (+25), Simon Linds (+14), Neil T (+15) and little Frankie F (+28).

“But I just had to waste…”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 16 places is Matt Gingell – dishonourable mentions go to Dave N (-12), Sean P (-14), Mark D-S-C (-12), Rich L (-14), Anders H (-14) and Debbie J (-12)

PAS Cup 2011:

In order to be invited to enter the PAS Cup 2011(and pay a reduced entry fee!) you will have to finish in the Top 32 after 13 weeks of play. Currently sneaking the last spot is…the little under pressure, Sean Peers.

And Another Thing:

Still not paid yet?! Gary B, get your payment in, fooooooool!

Cheers,
Pab

“It’s temporary, this place I’m in”:

Always bumper scores to be had on an international week as every seasoned PASer knows, and funny enough, it’s one of the stalwarts who takes this week’s £20! Howard Thomas 46 (8) just beat rising star Josh H for his first weekly win of the season. Well done Hitman, hopefully that’ll raise a smile in light of the recent redundancy from work mate… (he still beats peop, I mean, escorts them from nightclub premises though…)

“I permanently won’t do this again”:

Here’s a scoop for our resident hack – “Gareth Morgan 14(0), pivotal PAS pundit performance palaver presents perfect primetime for p*ss taking..”

Correct Score of the Week:

No, the 8-0 remained unpredicted – most popular score was Slovakia 1 Eire 1 – 20 of you got that! 5 got the 0-0 in Luxembourg, 12 got Austria’s 3-0 v Azerbaijan and 10 got Germany’s 3-0 against Turkey. 4 of you got the 0-0 between Norn Iron and the Azzurri and 12 got Portugal 3 Denmark 1 (and another 12 got Iceland 1 Portugal 3). Andy C /Neil M got Slovenia 5 Faroe Islands 1 and Dave N got Spain 3 Lithuania 1. However, this week’s best correct score and new best correct of the season so far, goes to Josh Hirst for his inspired Scotland 2 Spain 3. So, Josh really is smarter than Vicky O & a nearly 9 year old sister!

Bet of the Week:

Double whammy as Serbia prove to be the coupon-buster more so for Andrew D rather than Shaun B….

Table News:

“… I think it’s finally time for me to laugh about it”:

Shaun Backhouse stays top 7 points ahead of Andrew D who in turn is 1 point ahead of Josh H & Howard T. Tony B moves ominously into the Top Ten…

“It gets lonely for heavens sake”:

Vim Gupta stays bottom of the pile three points behind is old mucker Savan A and five behind Neil B…

“Decided he better hike it to the second floor”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 29 places are Ellen Fernandez & Mark De-Ste-Croix (zut alors! The French get good!)- honourable mentions go to Neil M (+19), Dave N (+24), Jazz S (+25 = oooh scary!) and Michelle F (+22 – oooh even scarier!).

“I fell into some kind of sorry state”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 26 places are Mark Grey & Pete Britton (karma for Citeh fans for spoiling football forever eh?!) – dishonourable mentions go to Jamie S (-20), Charlie H (-20), Debbie J (-24), Francesca F (-22) and Gareth M (-25)

PAS Cup 2011:

In order to be invited to enter the PAS Cup 2011(and pay a reduced entry fee!) you will have to finish in the Top 32 after 13 weeks of play. Currently sneaking the last spot is… the Palace Guard, Gary Blackburne.

And Another Thing:

Still not paid yet?! Get your payment across as soon as please!

The new online scoresheet function is ready for beta-testing (ooh a techkie word!) so when I get time to sort my life out I’ll be inviting some of you to get involved – seemit as an honour rather than a chore mes amigos…

Cheers,
Pab

“How did you get so very high”:

You’d think scoring 40 points would secure a weekly win wouldn’t you? But no, Charlie H, it doesn’t. So, then you’d think getting 47 points with a mighty impressive 9 correct scores would win you £20 yeah? Well, no actually. It only wins you £10 this week as both Andrew Darbyshire & Shaun Backhouse 47 (9) somehow managed this fine tally. Well done boys, it’ll take some beating…

“If luck was a bird then you shot it down”:

Oh dear! The 3 minute flash scoring method will need a rethink as Michelle Fernandez 8(1) brings shame to our name. If she was Scouse she’d be wearing an armband….

Correct Score of the Week:

Another round of fine predicting – most popular score was Rangers win at the Jambos – 22 of you got that! 8 got the 3-1 at Fir Park, 7 got Celtic’s 3-1 v Hamilton and 4 got Leicester’s 3-1 against Sunderland. 4 of you got the 2-2 between Boro & Pompey and 4 got Hull 0 Coventry 0. Andy C / Mark F / Jamie S got Bristol City 0 Norwich City 3 and Dave N / Sean P / Vicki O got Swansea 0 Derby Co. 0. However, this week’s best correct score and new best correct of the season so far, goes to Vicki Osmond for her very brave Liverpool 1 Blackpool 2. So, Vicki really is smarter than a nearly 9 year old?! (sorry I got your age wrong last week Jess H!)

Bet of the Week:

As my Forest mate said, “Doncaster my @rs*” And how right he was! Yep, Dave C had a mare and won nowt for spot prize slot 23rd – next up is the Andrew D & Shaun B show…

Table News:

“You got so high you almost touched the sky”:

Shaun Backhouse moves up 11 places t go 1 point ahead on Andrew D who in turn is 9 points ahead of Jamie S in third.

“Lady luck couldn’t wish you more luck than I”:

Ooops! Vim Gupta goes down 24 places to the bottom of the pile one point behind Jason M.

“So take a jump”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 47 places is Charlie Harris – honourable mentions go to Debbie J (+30), Rich L (+31), Tony B (+25), Nick H (+28) and Jon T (+25)

“I won’t look at you and ask why”:

Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 57 places is Michelle Fernandez – dishonourable mentions go to Stephen S (-22), Ellen F (-31), Mark F (-24), Catriona J (-50) and Vim G (-24)

PAS Cup 2011:

In order to be invited to enter the PAS Cup 2011 (and pay a reduced entry fee!) you will have to finish in the Top 32 after 13 weeks of play. Currently sneaking the last spot is… my fantasy friend, Stuart Longworth.

And Another Thing:

You’ll see from the table we’ve lost a player (boo!) and we might be losing another (double boo!) – not paid yet?! Get your payment across as soon as please!

Gonna be away in future weeks? Well, you’ll be able to find scoresheets up to and including Week 6, download and send over in good time!
