nutty nigel 7,534 Posted October 24, 2018 Welcome to Rays Funds, supported by Turner European Consulting and Kare Plus. This week we have Parma making the final six selections. Parma’s one of our most consistent PUPs, always around the top of the PUPs league and is again this season with 10/12 83% winning weeks. He’s also won when selecting the final six on two previous occasions as well as having a win when making the Norwich picks. So Parma’s a top PUP and also a top man who supports us in many different ways and I’m proud to call him a friend. We all enjoy his thought provoking posts on the message board and I’m lucky enough to have watched a couple of games in Parma’s company. It’s an education as he sees things that I don’t. Let’s give Parma the ammunition he needs with our best selections from the games played on Sat, Sun or Mon of this weekend which are listed on Bill Hill or Bet 365. We have a real celebrity making the Norwich picks this week with our great friend Jamie Abbott in the hot seat for City’s game at home to Brentford on Saturday. Jamie has played in his own game at five times at Carrow Road and played alongside many City legends and celebrities. Jamie’s also Ambassador with the CSF and of course a top player for our brilliant DS team. When making these selections last season Jamie’s own choice was Pinto to score. Of course at that time Pinto had never scored a professional goal anywhere. But Jamie knew and his choice added to the pot at 20/1. So let’s help him to a second win with some great suggestions for Saturday’s game. Just need GMF and 93V to confirm and the rota is good to go : - Final Six Results 03/11 – Molly Windley - Confirmed 10/11 – Diane - Confirmed 17/11 – Gregt - Confirmed 24/11 – Hissing Sid - Confirmed Norwich Picks 03/11 – JF - Confirmed 10/11 – GMF - Confirmed 17/11 – Internationals 24/11 – 93Vintage - These companies who support our work to raise funds for the CSF and our wonderful Downe''s Syndrome Team of boys and girls have all renewed their support for another year. This is reflected in the new totals on Ray’s signature So we would like to say a massive thank you to: - 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 Parma Ham’s gone mouldy and Jamie Abbott . 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 Downs Syndrome boys and girls. Good luck all you PUPs... take it away Parma and Jamie ... 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,4, Fonejacker,3, Norfolkbroadslim,3, Norfolkchance1,2, Scooby,3, Trent Canary,3, Cosmic Twin,6, Graham Humphrey, Leedscanary,3, NcfcStar, Herman, Delia’s Devonshire Dirtbox,3, Lappinitup, Statto, Mandie Moo,3, Mr Bump, Kathy,2, Til1010,2, 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 £2475 for the Community Sports Foundation.

[:P]Thanks also to Diane for her concern on last week''s thread at my lack of current form this season but as she says yes i am here again nice and early to keep up my 100% attendance record to give the pickers an opportunity to browse through their options.

Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,220 Posted October 24, 2018 Very proud to be making the picks this week, proud to be associated with such a fine, worthy cause and proud to be working alongside Jamie.Watching Jamie’s Game from the Director’s Box was one of the great joys of last year, another fine part of what makes Norwich such a great Club. Thank you for your kind words Nutty and thank you for continuing to provide such a fabulous, meaningful platform to allow us to make a small contribution to something bigger than all of us.

Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,220 Posted October 24, 2018 Hmm...this week’s picks....Nutty won’t like me loading pressure on, but sometimes you just need a win. You just need to find a way to win.I love that the board is full of creative people finding other ways to get Nutty money, with great pledges, side bets and challenges....we do need to scratch our pad and take some money off the bookies too though..To that end let’s be ruthless. Let’s research the most obscure, the most mathematically-favourable, the ones that the bookies would least like us to find and back. I’m going to let my autistic tendencies run free on this one....👌😊Parma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,220 Posted October 25, 2018 Thank you for your (eventual) decency Kathy....😂👍I wouldn’t have picked it if you’d chosen and furthermore I would have held an immortal grudge against (and would also have stopped talking to anybody I knew, know or might come to know called ‘Kathy’).Sensitive us Italians.....😂💛❤️🇮🇹Parma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,220 Posted October 25, 2018 Hmm...for Jamie’s Norwich bet I really think that Todd Cantwell will be on the scoresheet soon, he looks more and more comfortable with every game. Think he has goals in him with increased and well-founded confidence....👍Parma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted October 26, 2018 Best wishes for Parma and Jamie, great to see we are in capable hands this week.My selection for Parma is a home win for Walsall (and Russel Martin) v Wycombe.For Jamie, i think a 3-0 home win for City, wont be easy but if we can get off to a good start we will be fine.Good luck all, OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Humphrey 13 Posted October 26, 2018 The Swiss Super League for me this week and leaders Young Boys to defeat 8th (out of 10) placed Sion. Young Boys have only collected one point from their previous two league matches, but still have a ten point lead and earned a creditable 1-1 draw with Valencia in the Champions League in midweek.As for us, we''ve had a real threat from set-pieces recently so I wouldn''t put it past Timm Klose to find the net again.Best of luck everyone.

93vintage 16 Posted October 26, 2018 German Oberliga NOFV (Nordost) Sud: Wacker Nordhaussen II vs Blau-Weiß Zorbau, home win @ 1.22 (Bet365).Overall recordsWacker: W6-D2-L2 17/9Zorbau: W0-D3-L7 7/25Home vs AwayWacker home: W3-D1-L1 8/3Zorbau away: W0-D2-L3 3/14 This is a nicely obscure 3rd versus 16th (bottom) clash, with both teams debuting at Oberliga level following promotion.Wacker''s dropped points are a 0-0 at home to Plauen (5th this season, 4th last season), a 2-1 home loss to leaders Chemie Leipzig (1st, relegated), a 4-1 away defeat at VfL Halle (13th, 9th) and a 1-1 away at Inter Leipzig (4th, runners up).Zorbau''s points were earned from a 0-0 at home to Krieschow (6th, 8th), a 1-1 away at Wismut Gera (9th, 11th) and a 0-0 at Ludwigsfelde (15th, promoted).Wacker have home wins against Krieschow, Luckenwalde and Eilenburg, versus a draw and two losses respectively for Zorbau in the equivalent fixtures.Wacker have away wins at Union Sandersdorf, Hohenstein-Ernstthal and Wismut Gera, versus two losses and a draw for Zorbau. Wacker''s 1-1 draw at Inter Leipzig compares with a 5-0 loss for Zorbau.A closer look at the results shows that the odds are perhaps more reasonable than the bookies might have realised.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~For the Norwich bet I''ve just got this feeling that Buendia will score. Other than that, I''d be tempted by an asian handicap of Norwich -1.75 @ 5.90 (almost 5/1).Norwich -1.75 means that a victory by an aggregate of 2 goals would win half the bet (equivalent to win decimal odds of 2.95, ie nearly 2/1), but if Norwich won by 3 or more then the whole bet pays out.Good luck Jamie and Parma.
