nutty nigel 7,509 Posted April 12, 2017 Welcome PUPs to week thirty seven of our tenth Rays Funds season. We have an Easter treat this weekend with top PUP and our draw expert Wooster picking the final six games. Wooster has been brilliant since he joined our team. Not just with his great success in finding value options but also in his support for us in everything we do. Wooster is the epitome of what we endeavor to achieve with Rays Funds and I’m pleased it worked out that he gotr his turn in the hot seat. He will need our help though PUPs so please give him your best selections from the games played on Sat/Sun/Mon of this weekend that are listed on Bill Hill or Bet 365 web site. Please note no Good Friday games. This week we have PUPanon making the Norwich picks for Monday’s game at Preston. The plan originally was to do both Norwich games but a late change made that difficult. In fact I think it was rather ambitious as Friday’s game is an afternoon kick off. PUPanon is of course our anonymous benefactor who funds the Norwich bet each season for us. Not only does this mean we raise more money for our DS boys and girls but it also means that more PUPs can get involved in making picks a lot earlier than they otherwise would. The Norwich game part of Rays Funds has so far raised £931. So a big thank you is due to PUPanon from all of us and the CSF for this generosity. So let’s show our gratitude with some brilliant suggestions for our game on Monday. It’s fine to hold fire on this until after Friday’s game because PUPanon will email me the selections on Sunday night. Just a heads up that we will go 41 weeks this season finishing on weekend 13th May. I’m sorry that didn’t allow for everyone who picked regularly this season to get a chance to make the final six selections. You will get your chance early next season. Here’s the final six rota for the last two weeks : - May 6th – Snake-Eyes May 13th – Crabbycanary Please could you confirm the dates with you selections this week. Don’t forget our PUPs meet up in the Nelson after the game on Good Friday. Hope as many as possible can make it. And of course a Happy Easter to all you PUPs. So now I’ll hand the thread over to Wooster and PUPanon. 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 Laurence and PUPanon... 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,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 District Canary,2, Bor Bor Bor, Yellowfuture, Chellecity, Diesel Doris, Lessingham Canary, Molly Windley, Parma Ham’s gone mouldy, Feedthewolf, AJ, JB, PurpleCanary, Hoola Han Solo, yes Norfolkchance1 £2038 for the Academy, and £2019 for the Community Sports Foundation.

Feedthewolf 4,844 Posted April 13, 2017 Austrian Bundesliga for me, and a home win for Sturm Graz against Ried.Sturm Graz are third with a decent 8-3-4 home record, while Ried are rock bottom with a hopeless 1-1-12 away record.

chellecity 0 Posted April 13, 2017 Ligue 1 in France this weekMonaco (top) v Dijon (2nd bottom) - Home winFor the match bet, a goal for Lord Nelson.Good luck all, especially Wooster and PUPanon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Edwards 2,217 Posted April 13, 2017 Palace had a great result against the Arse and I think they''re a decent price at 3/4 (Paddy Power) to beat Leicester who must have put a huge amount into the Atletico game to come away with a 0-1. For the Norwich bet I''m thinking that we might win again but with a defence that still can''t mark effectively at set pieces I think Fulham are bound to score. So a Norwich victory and both teams to score. Price is likely to be around the 5/2 to 3/1 mark.Good Luck everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Edwards 2,217 Posted April 13, 2017 I''m being thick. If it''s the Monday Norwich game then I think I''ll stick with us to win and BTTS. We''re way overdue a win on the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
