norfolkbroadslim 223 Posted August 21, 2015 Congratulations to Lakey for your great win last week. On to this week, I''m going for - Atletico Madrid vs Las Palmas - Home win For the match bet, I''ve had one of the feelings all week that we''re going to edge a tight game. Bassong is also well overdue a goal & what better time than to celebrate his well deserved new contract (it''s just got to happen). So on that basis it''s -Norwich to win 2-1 + Bassong to score anytime.Good luck all.P.S. Hope you''re feeling better Inchy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,509 Posted August 21, 2015 [quote user="Mr Apples"]Hi PUPs, many thanks for your all your excellent suggestions and encouragement for my pick. [:D] Unfortunately I''ll need to make the final selection early because of work so apologies to those who have yet to post their suggestions. So here goes with my final selection. I''ve gone for an intriguing Belarus Premier League double-header and a mix of domestic and other European fixtures. Man U vs Newcastle (Home win) Middlesborough vs Bristol City (Home win) Athletico Madrid vs Las Palmas (Home win) BATE Borisov vs Neman Grodno (Home win) Juve vs Udinese (Home win) Shaktyor vs Gomel (Home win) Here''s wishing you all good luck and a big thank you for all your excellent suggestions! Apples [/quote]t Thank you for these Mr Apples. They look winners to me. The PUPs have done you proud with their suggestions and you''ve returned the compliment in finalising them to six. I''ve placed the six with Bill Hill and the potential return is £47.66. Here are the details : - Man Utd - 4/11 - 12:45 Sat Middlesbrough - 4/7 - 3:00 Sat BATE Borisov - 1/5 - 5:30 Sat Atletico Madrid - 2/9 - 7:30 Sat Shakhter Soligorsk - 1/6 - 4:30 Sun Juventus - 3/10 - 5:00 Sun So we have four on Saturday followed by two on Sunday. I think and hope we''re in for another exciting weekend PUPs. Good luck all and see some of you in the Nelson after the game. Inchy - I didn''t realise you had been ill, I had assumed you were on Hols. Glad you''re back now and stay well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,509 Posted August 24, 2015 The stats show this was a more difficult week. 54 of us selected with 35 good picks (65%). There were 34 different suggestions from which 21 won (62%). Unlucky Apples I hope you get a better week next time. Unlucky too for Lessingham who was close with a few notably Stoke/Draw (we equalised too early.). Chelle''s taken over from AJ at the top of our PUPs league and Tilly''s managed to creep into the top 30!
