nutty nigel 7,534 Posted December 19, 2017 Welcome to Rays Funds, supported by Asset Angels, Turner European Consulting and Kare Plus. Merry Christmas PUPs everywhere! May the spirit of the season fill your lives with peace, joy and love. While the spirit of the PUPs helps the CSF do the same for our wonderful DS boys and girls. Making the final selections of the six results is our great friend and top PUP Inchy. Inchy’s record speaks for itself. A former PUPs league winner Inchy has been successful when making these final selections on five previous occasions. That’s an amazing feat. He’s on top form this season too with 15/19 79% correct weeks at a profitability of 3.53. Inchy, who’s a great guy with a big heart and lovely family, is just the man to get us back to winning ways. I believe he will be our Santa this weekend. We’re up and running early this week because we need all your picks in by Friday lunchtime so that we can use Friday evening’s fixtures. Inchy will post the selections at around 2:30. Let’s find him some Christmas crackers from the matches played on Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday of this weekend that are listed on the Bill Hill or Bet 365 web sites. Santa has come early thanks to our friend and top PUP Snake Eyes who has sent a tenner to double the bet this weekend as it’s his birthday on Saturday. Thanks Snake and Happy Birthday buddy. You’re a star. For our match at home to Brentford on Friday evening we have another top PUP in 93Vintage making the final picks. 93V is becoming a bit of a Norwich game specialist having won on the two previous occasions he’s made these selections. He’s also on top form with his own match picks right now with four wins in the last five weeks at 2.37, 2.47, 1.97 and .78. We need these picks done by 2:30 on Friday too so that I can get everything sorted before leaving for our game. Hope that’s ok 93v, you have a tenner to spend split how you like between the PUPs selections and your own. I’ve provisionally set the rota for January. Just need Kingo and Len to confirm: - Final Six Results 06/01 Yankee - Confirmed 13/01 DDD -Confirmed 20/01 Lessingham - Confirmed 27/01 Hoola Han Solo - Confirmed Norwich Picks 06/01 King Canary 13/01 Len 20/01 Mystery Guest - Confirmed 27/01 Wooster - Confirmed Have a look at the companies who support our work to raise funds for the CSF and our wonderful Downe''s Syndrome Team of boys and girls. We would like to say a massive thank you to: - http://www.assetangels.co.uk/ https://www.facebook.com/assetangels http://www.turnereuropeanconsulting.com/ https://www.kareplus.co.uk/norwich/ If any other companies out there would also like to support our efforts, we''ll be happy to add you to our list of links on this thread every week. So now I’ll hand the thread over to Inchy and 93Vintage. 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 Bernie and 93V... 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,6, 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,2, 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,2, Feedthewolf,2, AJ, JB, PurpleCanary,2, Hoola Han Solo, Diane, Hissing Sid, yes Norfolkchance1 £2038 for the Academy, and £2308 for the Community Sports Foundation.

nutty nigel 7,534 Posted December 19, 2017 [quote user="PurpleCanary"]Having to pick early for this weekend, which I think will include Friday. Tempted by two Friday games - The New Saints, and Giresusnspor in the Turkish second tier, and Ajax on Sunday, but...Feyenoord to beat Roda JC.Feyenoord have a so-so 3-3-2 and 11/9 home record, but now are out from under European competition. Roda JC have a 1-0-8 and 8/23 away record. The odds are around 1/6.Hanley to score any time and Norwich City to win for the match bet.Good luck to all![/quote] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

93vintage 16 Posted December 20, 2017 Thanks for the intro Nutty, I''ll make sure I get the picks done by 2:30.I''m planning to focus on scores this time, based on a Norwich win/draw scenario. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,220 Posted December 20, 2017 In bocca al lupo 👍🍀 🐕 to Inchy....not v creative this week, though I think that The New Saints will win comfortably at home so:TNS vs Aberystwyth - Home winAs for the excellent 93v’s Norwich pick, I really do think we’ll see a Norwich victory. I also suspect that Josh Murphy will get some impact action and I think he will have something to prove (and will be quite capable of doing so) so:Norwich to win and Josh Murphy to score last.Parma 🎄🍀👍💰 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted December 21, 2017 Hi all,as ever when I get the honour of making the final six each and every selection will be looked at in depth and given the consideration it deserves. I will do my best to land us some money as I always do. Nutty has asked to post my selections tomorrow afternoon so i will be posting them around 2ish tomorrow. All the best to everybody this Christmas and a very prosperous new year to you all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feedthewolf 4,846 Posted December 21, 2017 I''ve been on poor form in the last few weeks, and Inter have already done me over once in recent weeks, but I''m going to take a risk. If you''re looking to balance five bankers with a longer one to maximise winnings, I must say this one looks truly excellent value.Sassuolo v Inter: AWAY WIN (4/5)Sassuolo''s home record is 1-2-5, F3 A10. Yep, they''ve scored only three goals in eight home matches, and currently sit 15th.Inter are down to 3rd after a home defeat to Udinese, but their away record is excellent: 5-3-0, F13 A5. Given the respective form at home and away, this really does look attractive at close to even money.As for the match bet, I''ll go with Norwich to win and both teams to score at 3-1.Best of luck, everyone!

Platonic 1 Posted December 21, 2017 I''ve been terrible at doing my picks recently, sorry. Hopefully I''ll be back consistently now. I''m trying to be positive, so I''m going to plump for Wolves to beat Ipswich.For us, I think both teams to score is a decent shout.Good luck all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
