nutty nigel 7,539 Posted September 7, 2016 Welcome to week six of our tenth Rays Funds season. As we settle into the season let’s hope that good selections start being a little easier to come by. Also that we find that little bit of luck that we need for winning weeks. Last week everything seemed to conspire against us and poor Mr Angry stood no chance. This week our usual hunting grounds are back and we have our friend Lake District Canary in charge of making the final six selections. Lakey came good picking our final six last season. It was his very first attempt and it was week two so early season as well. So that augers well for this weekend and I think Lakey’s the perfect PUP to get us back to winning ways. Lakey also epitomises what I love about the social side of PUPs. This thread brings together City fans who otherwise wouldn’t have met and it was great to see Lakey again when he was in the fine City last month. Good luck Colin, we will all be willing you to success and giving our very best selections from the games played on Sat/Sun/Mon of this weekend that are listed on the William Hill or Bet365 web site. For this week’s Norwich match we have Platonic making the final picks. Platonic joined us during the second half of last season and I’m really glad that he has stuck with us and I think he’ll prove a great asset in this his first full season. Platonic already has one win when he made these selections towards the end of last season so let’s all help him to a personal double with some great selections for our game against Cardiff. Good luck Michael, you have a tenner to spend any way you choose. I’ve provisionally done October’s rotas. Please could you let me know with your selections if the dates are suitable. I can easily make changes if necessary. Final six picks 1st Oct Til1010 8th Oct Mr Apples 15th Oct Jellytot 22nd Oct Diane 29th Oct Swindoncanary Norwich game final selections 1st Oct Snake Eyes 8th Oct Internationals 15th Oct I’m A Banana 22nd Oct Reggie 29th Oct Indy Now I’ll hand the thread over to Lake District Canary and Platonic.

AJ 1,223 Posted September 7, 2016 Hi all,I''m having a disaster, so I''m getting in early to start making amends!In League 2 this week; Plymouth vs Cambridge - HOME WIN. Surely The Pilgrims can''t let me down this time around! 4 wins on the bounce and 3rd in the table vs 3 defeats and 2 draws in the last five games.As for Norwich bet, it''s hard to know who will feature of course, but I would love to see a debut goals for Olivier and Pritchard, so one or both of those to score.Best of luck to LDC and Platonic for these weeks picks, and good luck to all you Pups Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,536 Posted September 8, 2016 Thanks for asking me to do the picks again Eddie, I hope I can do the business again and keep my winning streak of one going! Last time I picked very safe options and will try to do the same again, so as to maximise the chances. My record of picking isn''t very good this season so far, so will need plenty help from all you pups, so keep those choices coming folks, I need all the help I can get!

Molly Windley 76 Posted September 8, 2016 Good luck to one and all, especially Lakey and Platonic.Value odds of the week looks like Palermo vs Napoli with a home win at 7/1 but as we are looking for some safer options my pick this week is Home win for Crvena Zvezda ( Red Star Belgrade) vs FK Backa BP Saturday 1800 in the Serbian PL @ 1/7City bet is Norwich to have more first half corners @ 8/13 which looks value Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
