Rays Funds for the CSF with the Pink un Pickers Week 31

Recommended Posts

Welcome to week thirty one of

our Rays Funds season. This week we have GMF in charge of our

final six selections. GMF is another PUP who has been with us for many years. And

another who has previously won twice with his final six as can be seen by Ray’s

signature. So Gary’s just the right guy to get us back to winning ways after

Norfolkchance1’s unlucky 5/6 last weekend. That 5/6 gives us a free bet this

week though so please find GMF our very best
selections from the games

played on Sat/Sun/Mon of this weekend that are listed on the William Hill bet site as that’s where

our free bet is.

 

This week I’m really chuffed

to introduce one of our newest PUPs Platonic who will be making the selections

for our game at Swansea. It’s great that thanks to our anonymous benefactor

that we have this second part of Rays Funds because the newer PUPs now get a

chance to be more involved earlier than they would for the six selections. Platonic,

you have a tenner to spend from the PUPs selections and your own. Good luck

buddy.

 

We are still hoping to present

this year’s cheque at the Newcastle game on April 2nd. We already

have £1225 and have four more chances to get more. It’s already an amazing

total as last year’s cheque presented in March was for £881. So that’s over two

grand in under two years! You PUPs are awesome

 

Now I’ll hand the thread over to GMF and Platonic. Remember

theres no pressure because we are

all going to be doing our best to help you to success. We all stand together

with the single aim of raising money for the Community Sports Foundation.

 

 

Good luck all you PUPs... take it away Gary and Platonic ... the thread

is yours....... [:)]........

Will they be random with little thought process or will you study '' form '' with girlies usually taking the first option and us men the second.The big question is to you stand or sit when visiting the loo ? Good to have a mental picture of who we are dealing with i hope you understand. [;)]

Good luck GMF, Platonic and all the other PuPs.
This Saturday is my mother''s 90th birthday so I''m trying to pick those odds that have a 90 somewhere amongst them.
Therefore my match pick is: West Ham to win away at Everton at 18/5 (ie 18 x5 = 90)
For the Norwich game I''m going for Russell Martin to score the first and last goals at 90/1 (I assume that works with a 1-0 win?).

Welling vs Cheltenham AWAY WIN.

Top vs Second Bottom. Cheltenham have a GD of 43 (best in league by some margin) and Welling have -25 (worst in the league). Not checked the odds because to be frank after two shock loses the last 2 weeks I need to be back to winning ways!

For Norwich bet Swansea H/T Norwich F/T looks appealing, as does Draw H/T Norwich F/T

Thank you, as always, for your kind words in the introduction Nutty and thanks to all for your picks so far.

It''s been a manic week in advance of an early morning Sunday departure to France, but I should be back around nine tonight with my picks.

Serie A for me this week, and need a result after last weeks result, especially with Tilly applying pressure to everyone above him in the league''s............................... so home win for Napoli v Chievo is my pick.

And for City I see us winning (always do though !) 2-1 with Bamford to score at anytime.

Best of luck to all pups and especially our esteemed pickers and hope the Welsh sun is shining on all in yellow and green this weekend.

So here we go!

Sorry this is slightly early, but I''ve got a hectic afternoon/evening ahead so wanted to be organised. Thanks for the suggestions for the Norwich bet; I''ve decided to go for the following:

Half-Time: DRAW - £6

Both teams to score: NO - £3

Russel Martin to score first and last - £1 (thanks to woostercanary for the suggestion, it is indeed 90/1 at Bill Hill)

My reasoning (should anyone want it) is as follows:

Swansea have a tendency to score first in their matches (and indeed in the first half) whereas Norwich have failed to score in 6 of the last 8 away matches. However, the last two games have genuinely seen us improve our defensive game plan, and I am most confident of us managing to go in level at half time. I was tempted by a half time 0-0, but I prefer the simple draw as it covers more possibilities.

I''ve taken the NO in BTTS because I suspect this will end 1-0 to either team (as the reverse did at Carrow Road), or possibly 0-0. If Swansea do take the lead I don''t back us to score I''m afraid, as they''ll probably park the bus and we struggle to score away at the best of times. However, if we do take the lead I can see us seeing out the rest of the game as Swansea are definitively not Leicester/Chelsea.

Finally, the 90/1 on Martin first and last fits nicely into my thinking that we could nick a 1-0 victory, and why not have Russ chipping in for the goal.

Good luck all.

Don''t worry Gaz. A woman to the rescue!

Red Bull Salzburg v Scholz Grodig home win.

For City''s game a nil nil draw or more sensibly no goalscorer.

Good luck both.

Gutted, I thought I''d found the value bet of the day and then find Wooster has beaten me to it, but with away wins against Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal already (although they couldn''t beat us home or away!) I will take WHU to beat Everton at 4/1.

The city game is a do or die IMO and with the following we will be taking plus away fans always being more vocal than the home fans I''m going for a narrow win with Mbokani to score last

good luck pickers.
