nutty nigel 7,534 Posted March 29, 2017 Welcome PUPs to week thirty five of our tenth Rays Funds season. Well we’re up and running towards the next big total now with £73 already in the presentation pot. I think we have a great chance of adding to it with last year’s champion PUP Norfolkbroadslim picking the final six matches. ‘Slim has already racked up a hat-trick of final six wins and is probably our most consistent picker of all. If I could do a league table for ten years I’m pretty sure NBS would be top. He still needs our help so let’s give him our best selections from the games played on Sat/Sun/Mon of this weekend that are listed on Bill Hill or Bet 365 web site. It’s good to have a proper game to look forward to again this weekend after the boredom of international break. And it’s good to have Crabby back with us and to welcome him as the final picker for the Villa game. Crabby, who has won twice when making the Norwich picks, was a great asset last season where he had over 70% correct picks at a profitability of +3.3. We missed your input earlier this season Crabby but you qualified for picking the final six through that performance and I will fit you in before the end of this season. For this week you have a tenner to spend divided up how you like between your picks and those suggested by our great team of PUPs. The rota I posted for April is all confirmed but I left a couple of spaces for the Norwich game picks. Now you’ve joined us would you like to do the Brighton game Greavsy? The game is the Friday evening so I would need your selections by mid-day on Friday? Please let me know if all that is ok. Norwich Picks April 21st – Greavsy Spoiled for choice with new pictures. Let’s try this one which shows Katy (who I believe is our best defender), CSF Emma, CSF Darren and an assortment of PUPs behind bars… So now I’ll hand the thread over to Norfolkbroadslim and Crabbycanary. 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 Richard and Jeff... 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, yes Norfolkchance1 £2038 for the Academy, and £1973 for the Community Sports Foundation.

Crabbycanary3 994 Posted March 29, 2017 Thank you very much Nutty, and I hope that I can do some justice, to your faith in me. My predictions, (in other formats) haven''t gone well over the season, so I need to up my game,this week, with other peoples money on it, so any help that the PuPs can give me, I will be very grateful for.OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hissing Sid 154 Posted March 29, 2017 A league 1 offering for you this week2nd placed Bolton (22-9-8 62-34) to win at home vs 2nd bottom Chesterfield (8-9-23 38-66)For the match bet, probably mad, but I fancy City (based on nothing but instinct of course) and 11/5 strikes me as decent. Best of luck NBS, Crabby and all you PUPs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,220 Posted March 29, 2017 Buonasera Pupetti...NBS needs little help, though the Estonian Meistriliga looks a good option:JK Nomme Kalju vs Paide Linnameeskond - Home winAs for Crabby''s Norwich bet, a 1-1 draw is probably a reasonable likelihood, with two underperforming teams cancelling each other out as they build for next season.

nutty nigel 7,534 Posted March 29, 2017 Top v bottom in the Spanish Segunda which looks a good price at 4/9. Maybe I''m missing something : -Levante v Mirandes Home WinNorwich against Villa away from home is difficult. I can only remember us winning there twice. Perhaps Russ can find the net : -Russell Martin to score Anytime.I''ve also got Yankee''s selections for NBS : -Bayern Munich to beat Augsburg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gregt 66 Posted March 30, 2017 Hi everyoneMy pick this week is sparta rotterdam v PSV EINDHOVEN away win.The reason I have picked this is that there will be a pup at this game, my son little twidio is going on a school trip to holland so he will be there,in the ground to cheer them on.Norwich bet I''d say Jacob to score first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolkbroadslim 223 Posted March 31, 2017 Thank you for the very kind intro Nutty. It really is a great privilege to be able to make the final selections again. Thank you also for all of the great selections so far. I will post my final 6 late tomorrow night, to capture as many options as possible.For the match bet I am struggling to come up with anything positive for us. Villa have won 5 of their last 6, conceding only once in the process. We are poor away from home. The best I can see is a correct score and scorer of -Villa 2 - 1 Norwich AND Olivera to score last.Good luck everyone, the very best of luck Crabby [:)][Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Great Drinkell 50 Posted March 31, 2017 This week looks a tough week in the English leagues, but it''s what I know so i''ll try and find NBS a winner. John Sheridan has always been a good fit with Oldham and looks again to be guiding them to safety and making them hard to beat. This week they have a trip to Southend who are on the brink of the play off places and desperately need a win at 4/5 I''ll take a risk that Phil Browns team will have just to much for Oldham.Southend V Oldham Home win.For Crabby I''ll predict a score draw Good luck to both pickers.
