nutty nigel 7,509 Posted February 15, 2017 Welcome PUPs to week twenty nineof our tenth Rays Funds season. This week we have Diesel Doris in charge ofmaking the final six selections. DD is having a brilliant season in both ourPUPs Leagues with 24/28 86% winning selections and a profitability of 5.99.Also with previous wins in both the final six and the Norwich game means we arein very safe hands this weekend. Trish always supports us PUPs in all we do andwas part of the ‘MensaPUPs’ who did so well at the recent NCFSC quiz. I thinkwe have a great chance of back to back wins after GMF’s great win last weekend.So let’s give our very best selections from the games listed on Bet 365 or BillHill web sites that are played on Saturday, Sunday or Monday of this weekend. Can we give a PUPs welcome toThe Raptor who was just 134 out when guessing the gate of the Southampton cupmatch and kindly agreed to make these selections this weekend. I looked up TheRaptor on Wiki and it said he was a signature hero! That suggests to me that hewill be on Ray’s signature on Saturday evening! The Raptor, you have a tennerto spend on the suggestions from the PUPs and your own for our game at Burton. Youcan split that in any way you choose. I you’re not sure of anything just ask onhere and the PUPs will be happy to help. Here’s the rota for the nextfew weeks : - Final Six Picks25/02 Hector Brocklebank –Confirmed.04/03 Norfolkchance111/03 Yankee Canary18/03 Statto Norwich Picks25/02 Snake-Eyes – Confirmed04/03 Syteanric11/03 AJ18/03 Felixfan Please could you confirm ifthe dates our ok with your selections. I think it’s worth repeatinghere how last weekend summed up what we are all about. We had GMF’s great finalsix win. Lessingham’s generous ticket transaction. Gerry from Romania came andfound me after the match to make a donation and Wooster sent some money fromhis mid-season pledge. All that meant the presentation pot now stands at £1715. To quote CSF Emma “That’samazing!” So now I’ll hand the threadover to Diesel Doris and The Raptor. Remember there’s no pressure because we are all going to be doing ourbest to help you to success. We all stand together with the single aim ofraising money for the Community Sports Foundation and our fabulous Downes Syndromeboys and girls.. Good luck all you PUPs... take it away Trish and The Raptor ... the threadis yours.......[:)]......... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As always Ileave you with Ray’s signature which now reads :-Carve theirnames 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,5, 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,3, SwindonCanary, Twidio, Hector Brockelbank, Lake DistrictCanary,2, Bor Bor Bor, Yellowfuture, Chellecity, Diesel Doris, LessinghamCanary, Molly Windley, Parma Ham’s gone mouldy, Feedthewolf, AJ, JB, yesNorfolkchance1 £2038 for the Academy, and £1946 for the Community SportsFoundation.

YankeeCanary 0 Posted February 15, 2017 PSG to beat Toulouse.Nutty, March 11th will be difficult for me. I''m in Florida and have some family from England joining me a couple of days before that.

Hissing Sid 154 Posted February 15, 2017 A trip to the Austrian Bundesliga this week and this offeringSCR Altach (2nd, 13-4-4 34-23) v St Polten (2nd bottom, 4-6-11 23-40) - Home WinFor the match bet, victory for City, 2-0.Best of luck Doris, Raptor and all you PUPs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diesel Doris 127 Posted February 15, 2017 Thanks for the intro Eddie. Hope my form will continue as I do the final picks and I''m sure with the help of all the terrific PUPs it will. I''ll probably post my selections after 10pm on Friday so there''s plenty of time to get your picks in. Good Luck to everyone and especially The Raptor with the Norwich bet.

Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,219 Posted February 15, 2017 Also rather liked Altach Sid...though will stay with ski season and offer a Swiss-based variant:Basel vs Lausanne Sports - Home win In bocca al Lupo Doris... in safe hands this week 👌👍💁💪As for Raptor''s Norwich bet, I would expect Pritchard to feature prominently and a goal for him would be a sound bet, perhaps even in combination with Wildschut. So something sexy like:Norwich to win and Pritchard and Wildschut to score...should be worth a few bob....😂💰Parma 😘💁❤👠🍫 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
