Hansterbubble 55 Posted April 13, 2018 Hello everyone.I’m going for a home win for MAN UTD v West Brom and keep my fingers crossed that West Brom don’t suddenly wake up now it’s just about curtains for them.In the match bet I suspect Cardiff may be a handful so I’m going for a draw but secretly hoping for better.Good luck pickers!

Crabbycanary3 994 Posted April 13, 2018 Right PuPs.First of all, can I thank all of you that have offered suggestions, as it has given me a lot of thinking time.After going through all the suggestions, I felt I couldn''t come up with anything different to what was offered to me, as they all looked great picks. As I ticked down the (final) ones I realized that I had 7 final games, so one had to go, and I pray that it doesn''t cost us! You guessed it, I am not going to put it on here, as to which one it was!So Nutty, could you please place these as my picks please;Platanias v AEK Athens (Away win)Dunfermline v Brechin (Home win) (My choice as well please)Peterhead v Cowdenbeath (Home win)Montrose v Berwick (Home win)Rennes v Metz (Home win)Wofoo Tai Po v HK Rangers (Home win)Stressful? Yep! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,533 Posted April 14, 2018 Really unlucky Gingerpele. It''s hard to win when we lose a home game without scoring.Top stuff this afternoon Crabby 3/3 and Rennes a goal up at halftime. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crabbycanary3 994 Posted April 14, 2018 BallcocksHalf as many shots, half as many corners, and only 33% possession, and the team at the bottom of the League still wonIt''s the silly season for results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,533 Posted April 14, 2018 Yes that''s the way it goes sometimes Crabby. It was a great effort and I reckon you''ll get 5/6. Next season 6/6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted April 14, 2018 Gutted I couldn’t add to the pot, wasn’t even close with a couple others I seriously considered. Probably should have been pessimistic since we haven’t done all that well at home most of the season! And unlucky as well Crabby, no one would have seen that result coming especially based on the games stats Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,533 Posted April 15, 2018 As I expected Crabby''s last two won today so it was a very unlucky 5/6. The stats will show how difficult this weekend turned out to be. Lots of banana skins including Man Utd and Fulham who Crabby did well to swerve. Just shows how hard it is to get all six and how well you brilliant PUPs are in helping us to get them as often as we do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,533 Posted April 16, 2018 Was that the Fugawe tribe? They may be small but have a huge leap. Their habitat in the jungle is covered in long grass, much taller than them. They are proud people though and known for leaping high in the air proclaiming "we''re the Fugawe"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a result when the players got to Portman Road they did indeed jump up shouting "We''re the Fugawe?!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,533 Posted April 16, 2018 It proved to be a very difficult week. In the end 24/38 PUPs had winning picks (63%). From the 27 different selections 18 won (67%). Crabby''s 5/6 meant he avoided many of the banana skins. Most profitable pick this week was 93Vintage''s away pick in Chile at 1.36.Cosmic still has just three wrong picks so is on course for her second consecutive PUPs league triumph. Purple remains her closest rival with four wrong. After a sustained challenge Inchy has claimed top spot in the profitability league from Wooster after picking Chelsea at .81. There are still three weeks to go so it''s all to play for at the top of both leagues.
