nutty nigel 7,528 Posted November 2, 2016 Early today because I''m out all afternoon and then have our Legends Forum with Hucks, Adam Drury and Terry Allcock this evening. I hope to see many of you there. Welcome to week fourteen of our tenth Rays Funds season. This weekend we have Feedthewolf making the final six selections. Wolfie’s been a great asset to our team of PUPs since joining in season 7. I will always remember his epic battle with Tilly the next season and the banter that ensued. Wolfie’s in good form this season with 10/13 77% winning selections and comes into his week on a run of four correct picks. Last year Matt had a really unlucky 5/6 on his first attempt at this and I’ve been waiting for his next turn ever since. Of course in the time he’s been a PUP Wolfie has managed to twice win when making the Norwich selections. He’s a surefire future winner at this and I think it will happen this weekend. So let’s all give him our very best picks from the games played on Sat/Sun/Mon of this weekend that are listed on the Bet 365 or William Hill web site. Making the Norwich match selections for our important game at home to Leeds we have ZLF. It’s great to have Zip with us this season. Arrdee recognised we needed ZLF when this idea was first being spawned nearly ten years ago. For those who like a bit of nostalgia this is the thread : - http://services.pinkun.com/forums/pinkun-forums/cs/forums/866946/ShowPost.aspx So when Zip joined this season I smiled and said “We got him Arrdee” and I’m sure I heard a reply “It took you nearly ten years though nutty…” But in all seriousness ZLF is one of my all-time favourite posters and I’m really glad to have him selecting the Norwich options this weekend. You have a tenner to spend buddy divided in any way you choose from the PUPs selections and your own. Now I’ll hand the thread over to FTW and ZLF. Remember there’s 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 and our fabulous Downes Syndrome boys and girls.. Good luck all you PUPs... take it away Matt and Stephen ... the thread is yours.......[:)]...... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As always I leave you with Ray’s signature which now reads :- Carve their names with pride.Yankee,5,Fellas,3,P''boro,2,Mr Chops,2,NewYork,2, Inch High,5, Blahblahblah, NCFC_Shaun, 1st Wazzock,3, Fonejacker,3, Norfolkbroadslim,3, Norfolkchance1,2, Scooby,3, Trent Canary,3, Cosmic Twin,4, Graham Humphrey, Leedscanary,3, NcfcStar, Herman, Delia’s Devonshire Dirtbox,2, Lappinitup, Statto, Mandie Moo,2, Mr Bump, Kathy,2, Til1010, Snake-eyes, Vindo,2, NWC, Hughesy, Gregt, GMF,2, SwindonCanary, Twidio, Hector Brockelbank, Lake District Canary,2, Bor Bor Bor, Yellowfuture, Chellecity, Diesel Doris, Lessingham Canary, Molly Windley, Parma Ham’s gone mouldy, yes Norfolkchance1 £2038 for the Academy, and £1611 for the Community Sports Foundation.

Feedthewolf 4,846 Posted November 2, 2016 Thanks for the intro, Eddie. As soon as you posted this, the website went down - hope that''s not an omen! Also I hope these technical issues don''t prevent people from making their picks. I''ll be considering all selections very carefully, and aiming to have my final six tied up by 6pm on Friday. OTBC!

AJ 1,218 Posted November 3, 2016 Hi all,Due to the lovely cup, I have decided to drop all the way down to the National League North to back AFC Flyde vs Stalybridge Celtic - HOME WIN. Top placed AFC Flyde slipped up last time out against Tamworth, so they''ll be looking to put that right at home, I''m sure. They''ve also scored a whopping 44 goals in the league, coming in at over 2.5 per game and resulting in a tidy GD of 23. Stalybridge on the other hand sit 3rd bottom, and have shipped 38 goals so far, losing 8 of their last 10 games and have just 9 points on the board compared to Flydes 37 - and I can''t see them adding anymore this weekend...For the Norwich bet, over 2.5 goals seems sensible due to our leaky defence and need to score goals to set things right!Good luck Wolfie, ZLF and all Pups :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,218 Posted November 3, 2016 Please excuse the auto-correcting of Fylde to Flyde! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
