wooster 134 Posted September 16, 2017 Good luck LDC, Splutcho & everyone else, sorry I''m so late but it''s no wonder you didn''t pick:Burnley to draw at Liverpool (5/1); though I see a couple have also picked:Norwich to draw 0-0 (11/1).FTW - as you asked last week, I don''t bet on football except via Nutty and even then I only get one right in three (at best).

nutty nigel 7,510 Posted September 16, 2017 Gutted for you Lakey. It was my pick too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,218 Posted September 16, 2017 Really gutting to lose like that with a stubborn draw, hard luck LDC.And for the match bet, nobody could have bet on Wildschut starting, and I''m sure nobody would have bet on him scoring first! Just one of those weeks, but at least we have 3 well earned points to celebrate from Bramall Lane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,510 Posted September 16, 2017 Unlucky Splutcho. You can''t cover everything. If we carry on putting performances in like that away from home selecting away options may get easier for us PUPs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
splutcho 173 Posted September 16, 2017 I must admit, it did make it a little easier knowing if we conceded a last minute equaliser the PUP''s would come away with something. It was a pleasure making the picks this week and I''m sure somebody will succeed where I''ve failed next week. Have a great weekend, all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy_Bones 441 Posted September 17, 2017 Damn, after a couple of rough weeks, I get both picks to come in - but neither were chosen!Tough luck to our PuP''s again, but a nod to Molly Windley with a cracking shout for the city game with us to win 1-0 and Wildschut to score at 50-1!

Little did I think you''d top that straight away but this draw prediction came to pass at 5.27. Hats off to you buddy, amazing stuff[Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wooster 134 Posted September 17, 2017 Thanks Nutty, another slice of luck I think.That said, Burnley''s away games have been a win at Chelsea and a draw with Spurs whilst Liverpool had a midweek game, so a draw looked possible.Sorry to see the match bets miss out, but pleased with our 3 points at Sheffield.

nutty nigel 7,510 Posted September 17, 2017 Great three points Wooster. And some good calls on that too. But it''s impossible to cover everything. Despite not picking up anything it still feels like a good weekend because we got that great result. It''s usually Rays Funds that picks us up after a let down by our team so it''s great that they picked us up with the new version of "Along came Norwich....."Lakey got the other five so it was just Aberdeen, my pick, that let us down. One thing I try and check for with my pick is to find out if they''re playing a bogey team. That definitely wasn''t the case because Aberdeen had won the last 13 league fixtures against Kilmarnock. Grrrrrrr....Still another thing that has cheered me up is that we topped 50 PUPs for the first time this season with 51 trying to help us get a win. With that sort of support we''ll be winning again very soon.[Y]There are just two PUPs left with perfect records and when I do the tables tomorrow Wolfie and Purple will be leading the way on 7/7.Wooster is well clear in the profitability on +10.35!

nutty nigel 7,510 Posted September 18, 2017 Just the stats and tables to tidy up. Of those 51 PUPs who gave suggestions 34 won (67%). Between us we made 34 different suggestions from which 24 won (71%). Lakey did even better than that with his 5/6 (83%) but the luck wasn''t with us this week.Here''s the PUPs league showing those with over 50% correct who have picked in at least half the available weeks : - PUP Wins Picks Win% Profitability Feedthewolf 7 7 100% 3.31 Purple Canary 7 7 100% 2.29 AJ 6 7 86% 4.28 Inchy 6 7 86% 2.64 JB 6 7 86% 2.36 Nutty Nigel 6 7 86% 1.69 Til1010 6 7 86% 1.31 Cosmic Twin 6 7 86% 1.19 Yellowfuture 6 7 86% 1.08 Lake District Canary 6 7 86% 1 Parma ham''s gone mouldy 6 7 86% 0.76 Mr Apples 5 6 83% 1.69 DDD 5 6 83% 0.63 Lappinitup 5 7 71% 3.54 Yankee 5 7 71% 1.3 Gregt 5 7 71% 1.17 Diesel Doris 5 7 71% 1.08 Lessingham Canary 5 7 71% 0.99 Anthony 5 7 71% 0.67 Chellecity 5 7 71% 0.25 Molly Windley 5 7 71% -0.15 Norfolkbroadslim 5 7 71% -0.33 Crabby 4 6 67% 0.73 Kathy 4 6 67% 0.07 Graham Humphrey 4 7 57% 0.34 ZLF 4 7 57% 0.15 Hissing Sid 4 7 57% 0.1 Hammond1612 4 7 57% -0.2 Mr Angry 4 7 57% -0.54 Swindoncanary 4 7 57% -0.94 Woostercanary 3 6 50% 10.35 Duncan Edwards 3 6 50% 1.4 Twidio 3 6 50% -1.03 Hoola Han Solo 3 6 50% -1.04 And here''s the profitability league showing those in profit who have picked in at least half the available weeks : - PUP Wins Picks Win% Profitability Woostercanary 3 6 50% 10.35 AJ 6 7 86% 4.28 Lappinitup 5 7 71% 3.54 Feedthewolf 7 7 100% 3.31 Inchy 6 7 86% 2.64 JB 6 7 86% 2.36 Purple Canary 7 7 100% 2.29 Nutty Nigel 6 7 86% 1.69 Mr Apples 5 6 83% 1.69 Duncan Edwards 3 6 50% 1.4 Til1010 6 7 86% 1.31 Yankee 5 7 71% 1.3 Cosmic Twin 6 7 86% 1.19 Gregt 5 7 71% 1.17 Diesel Doris 5 7 71% 1.08 Yellowfuture 6 7 86% 1.08 Lake District Canary 6 7 86% 1 Lessingham Canary 5 7 71% 0.99 Parma ham''s gone mouldy 6 7 86% 0.76 Crabby 4 6 67% 0.73 Len 2 7 29% 0.68 Anthony 5 7 71% 0.67 DDD 5 6 83% 0.63 Graham Humphrey 4 7 57% 0.34 Chellecity 5 7 71% 0.25 ZLF 4 7 57% 0.15 Hissing Sid 4 7 57% 0.1 Kathy 4 6 67% 0.07 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
