nutty nigel 7,528 Posted May 2, 2017 [quote user="The Great Drinkell"]I know we don''t do sorry''s on this thread and with a pick rate of around 55% I suppose 3 from 6 was a likely out come, Gutted that Fulham took the lead and then missed a penalty - why didn''t they do that a few weeks ago? Brighton, probably think they have done the job (which I suppose they have) so have taken their foot off the gas.Great to have a chance to pick the final 6 and thanks to all you pup;s for your selections.[/quote]No we don''t do sorrys and you have no need for them anyway Drinks. You did as well as we did. No selection with more than one endorsement won. Of the 38 of us who picked 18 selected a winning team (47%) and there were 18 good picks from the 31 given (58%). We don''t win on weeks with stats this poor. You at least selected a winner and once again it was the most profitable pick of the weekend. I look forward to your turn next season buddy.With two weeks to go Cosmic remains top of our PUPs league with Diesel Doris and Parma just one winner behind. Here''s that table showing those with at least 50% correct from at least half the available weeks : -PUPWinsPicksWin%ProfitabilityCosmic Twin353990%2.62Diesel Doris343987%8.23Parma ham''s gone mouldy343987%-0.31Nutty Nigel333985%6.76JB333985%6.52Til1010323982%1.05Norfolkbroadslim172181%-0.53Mandie Moo212681%1.83Kathy273479%1.72Jamie Witherspoon151979%3.04Swindoncanary263379%2.18Chellecity303977%3.79DDD293876%-4.65Gregt293974%4.24Graham Humphrey293974%1.6Yankee293974%-1.78Hoola Han Solo263574%-0.63Purple Canary263574%-5.69Statto28192673%-0.07Lake District Canary273773%-0.34Feedthewolf283972%-0.89Leedscanary142070%-1.98Diane273969%4.64Lessingham Canary263868%-0.56Van Wink243863%-5.69Mr Angry243962%-3.83AJ243962%-4Hammond1612243962%-6.5GMF162759%-4.31Platonic203459%6.34Anthony223858%-2.34Snake Eyes203557%-2.71The Great Drinkell223956%9.65Hissing Sid223956%-5.14Mr Apples203754%-1.87Mandie Moo''s Mear Kat142654%-8.04I am a Banana152854%0.81ZLF183551%-5.24As I said earlier TGD once again had the most profitable pick with Carlisle at 1.2 which took him further ahead in the profitability league.

Greavsy 2,412 Posted May 2, 2017 Well ignored Eddie.Why was I invited to do the Norwich picks? Just curious what prompted that invite, on here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,528 Posted May 2, 2017 Because you started posting selections. Everybody who joins in is invited to do the Norwich picks. Now you ask I also lost a PUP because I invited you to do it. But I have to be fair and our benefactor likes to see posters join. Sometimes I get people from other threads to do the Norwich picks. Like with the "guess the gate" in January. Although why I''m bothering to answer this when you can''t be bothered to answer my question is beyond me. If you genuinely want to be part of Rays Funds you''ll take your little games off these threads. But if you just want to spoil this for everyone else I guess you''ll carry on. Either way that''s it from me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,412 Posted May 2, 2017 Nigel, seriously what is your problem.I suggested someone in response to your post, on topic.Yes I typed email instead of a post which was a genuine error, for which I apologised, it''s there for all to see.I''m not interested in spoiling this (or any other thread).The question I have not answered I assume is the one why I suddenly started taking part, after years of ignoring it.Whilst I don''t believe I need to justify my reasons, I will just say a change in my personal circumstances meant I was able to post more, and take a more active role on here. I apologize if that''s been inconvenient, and wasn''t allowed. I also sincerely apologise if you had to lose another pup to include me, but that was your call, not mine. You asked earlier what would make others partake in the pups, but I don''t think you will like my answer, so will keep my counsel on that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Great Drinkell 50 Posted May 2, 2017 NN as suggestion, where''s Kev aka Leeds he would be e great person to finish the season on a high by picking the game bets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoola Han Solo 448 Posted May 2, 2017 Sorry, I forgot my pick this week. As a suggestion Nutty, maybe give the Norwich picks to multiple PUPs, maybe a quid each to spend for 10 posters? Just an idea of course. Well done on all your hard work for yet another season NN, keep it up mate (and of course all PUPs). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He''s a bit busy at the moment so has missed a few weeks. He still managed to get down for the 10 year PUPs meet at Easter. He did the Norwich picks for New Years Eve.

nutty nigel 7,528 Posted May 2, 2017 Thanks Wooster. Hoola''s suggestion has guided me to a plan where hopefully loads of us can have a say in the QPR picks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
