Rays Funds for the CSF with the Pink un Pickers Season 13 Week 1

Recommended Posts

Welcome to Rays Funds, supported by Asset Angels, Turner European Consulting and Kare Plus.

 Well PUPs it’s great to be back for the thirteenth season of Rays Funds. I’m early this week because I’m away Mon to Fri although I will be able to keep track of the thread and will be back in plenty of time to sort the final selections.  If someone could make sure it's near the top of the board through the week I would appreciate it.

If you’re looking at this and wondering about joining this season just jump in and post your picks foresult from the weekend's football programme and a suggestion for our game at Liverpool. It’s not pay to play. Those that can afford send me a funds because we need 40 tenners to get through the season. My paypal is canaryeddie@aol.com or I’ll be in the Nelson opposite the train station after the Newcastle game. Thanks to everyone who has already sent funds, your support is really appreciated.

Now down to business for the new season. As is customary our reigning champion is in charge on the first week. So we have First Wazzock picking the six results. Wazzy, who finished last season with 37/39 95% winning picks, has won six times when making these final selections. Wazzy also has two winning weeks when selecting for the Norwich game. That is a fantastic record but Wazzy still needs our help to get win number seven with our very best selection from the games played on Saturday, Sunday and Monday of this weekend that are listed on the Bill Hill or Bet 365 web site.

Thanks to our generous anonymous benefactor PUPanon the Norwich game stakes are once again covered for the seventh successive season. However there’s a slight change this season because PUPanon has upped the Norwich stake to £13 enabling the picker to have an automatic negative option of £2 for City to lose and £1 for the draw. The remaining tenner will work like last season where the picker has a totally free reign to pick their own options of negative/positive picks.

First up for the Norwich picks against Liverpool is the wonderfully named Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man. Wacky joined us for our spring specials and I’m well pleased he has decided to join our great team of PUPs for the season proper. WWIAFTM, you have a tenner to spend split how you like between the PUPs selections and your own. If you’re not sure of anything just ask on this thread or you can message me, and please enjoy the experience because all us PUPs are fully behind you and having fun is what we’re all about. As this is a Friday evening game please get your selections for Wacky in plenty of time as I will need to place Wacky’s picks on Friday afternoon.

Hissing Sid has kindly opened the PUPs league again on Sky Sports Super Six. This is loads of fun. Sid tells me if you were in it last season, you're automatically back this year. If you want to join us, please feel free, the league code is 2VLXPW. There’s no prizes, it’s all for fun. Trying to think who won it last year….

Just a reminder that Kathy needs your Canary Challenge entries by this Thursday don’t forget she said we could BOGOF again and any money won on the free entry goes into our presentation pot. You can enter on line https://canariestrust.org/canary-challenge-2019-2020/ and email Kathy your BOGOF entry at reephambird@gmail.com

Thanks Nutty and to those of you who have already done a PUPs entry. Dont forget, there's just a week to go. If you enter it costs you nothing and very little effort to do an extra one for this brilliant cause. You can do it on here if you like. I'll keep checking 🙂

Pretty please.

https://canariestrust.org/canary-challenge-2019-2020/

Meanwhile I'll try to up my game on the PUP picks after last season's miserable showing.

Given it some thought now and I’m going for a bit of value - Falkirk to beat Dumbarton please.

For City’s game I genuinely believe we will score so City to score at least one goal. Good luck all.

I will kick off with a home win for PSG against Nimes on Sunday. 

For Norwich, my guess will be BTTS.

I am available for the West Hame game, just a shame that I am away, and it’s my nearest club. 

Lets hope we get off to a flyer.

Hi PUPs, best of luck everyone for the season ahead (Nutty, my money left this morning). 👍

I'm off to Belarus this week with BATE vs. Energetyk-BDU (home win).

For the City bet I'll go for Pukki to score first.

Thanks to Nutty for keeping this wonderful fund-raising thread going, and to PUPanon and the sponsors for their financial support. For Friday's doddle of an opener I looked at the odds for Anytime Goalscorer, and found there were 10 Liverpool players listed before Pukki got a mention...

Even so, I would suggest either McLean, at 11/1, or Godfrey (a set piece perhaps?) at 14/1. I will wait for odds to appear later in the week for the accumulator bet. Good luck to all!

If anyone is not sending me a suggestion this week, I will expect a valid reason backed up with a note from their Mum...

Good luck all!

Bumping back up.

Watford to beat Brighton

Norwich bet has got to be worth putting some on us to win, unlikely I know but at odds of over 20/1 to win a football match that’s worth a quid or two

Great to be back! Spurs to beat villa and for the Norwich match, steiperman to score anytime. Good luck pups! Also Eddie I’ll give you a tenner after the Newcastle game.

I hate to be 'that guy', but Liverpool v Norwich – home win. Hoping for a bit of reverse psychology to kick in!

For the match itself, I've had a cheeky quid on a scorecast of Pukki first goal, Liverpool to win 4-2 at 700-1 on Skybet. Crazy hunch.

So good to have the best thread on the board back.

Good luck everyone, hope we can start the season with a great win – at least on this thread if not on the pitch!
