nutty nigel 7,902 Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) Welcome to Rays Funds, supported by Turner European Consulting and Kare Plus. You PUPs have been on top form for a few weeks now and we’ve had the results to prove it. It could so easily have been four consecutive wins last week where Mandie was so unlucky to have just that Paderborn equaliser scuppering her six. But I think we have every chance of a getting straight back to winning ways this weekend with DJ11 in the final six hot seat. DJ is a great supporter of all we do on these threads and was extremely unlucky last year when Sarajevo managed to turn a home banker into a 0-0 draw! So let’s help him to go one better this year with some more great selections from the games played on Saturday, Sunday and Monday of this weekend that are listed on the Bill Hill or Bet 365 web site. We are honoured to have a VIP on this week’s thread with Jamie Abbott making the final selections for our beloved Canaries game at home to Liverpool. Jamie’s won twice before when guesting here for us and who could ever forget him correctly picking Ivo Pinto as a goal scorer when he’d never scored a first class goal before. Jamie has a tenner to spend split between the PUPs picks and his own. And of course we also have PUPanon’s insurance of £2 Norwich lose and £1 draw as well. As always a massive thank-you to our benefactor PUPanon for making the Norwich match picks possible. Also to all the Pink Un posters who send me pledges and donations. And to our sponsors Turner European Consulting and Kare Plus. Their money all goes straight into the presentation pot. The CSF and our DS boys and girls really appreciate this support. For more information on our sponsors take a look at their websites below:- http://www.turnereuropeanconsulting.com/ https://www.kareplus.co.uk/norwich/ In the previous two seasons we’ve played the binners at home around this time and that’s been the fixture where we honour our special memories of Michelle Dack (Chellecity). I’ve spoken to Ian and we’ve decided this year to do this for the Southampton game on 14th March. So we have a few weeks to think about it. PUPs who want to take part can send a fiver to me in one of the usual ways and make a selection for the game on that week’s thread. With any returns from these £5 bets split 50/50 between SarcomaUK and our presentation pot and recorded on Chelle’s part of Ray’s signature. Ian (Hissing Sid) makes the Norwich picks annually for this game with any wins going to our presentation pot and recorded on Chelle’s part of Ray’s signature. If any would rather just make a donation then that’s ok too and it will be split 50/50 between SarcomaUK and our pot. Thanks to those who have already sent a fiver. So now I’ll hand the thread over to DJ11 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 David and the Jamie, the thread is yours....🙃.........

dj11 404 Posted February 12, 2020 I am in South Africa for now and on Friday I am off wine tasting followed by a barbecue, so I will need plenty of help. I spent 3 hours in the lounge at Johannesburg airport today pouring over the matches this weekend, so much so that my girlfriend gave up asking what I was looking at. I would like to chuck an extra tenner in the pot and do 2 lines, so extra suggestions would be great. it is an honour to do the selections and I will do my utmost to add to the pot. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Udinese V Verona - AWAY win For the City game, Tettey to celebrate his new contract extension with an anytime goal! (Any chance of some increased odds for specifically robbing Jordan Henderson of the ball, nipping past Fabinho and smashing in a 30 yard screamer?!)

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,616 Posted February 13, 2020 Billionaire play-thing Monza, 17 points clear at the top of the Serie C with the wage bill of a small Serie A side, are 2/5 at home to mid-table Juventus U23. That looks a good price. For the Norwich game, I'll tip goal before 24:00 at 5/6. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lessingham Canary 108 Posted February 14, 2020 Juventus v Brescia home win for me please. City like Tyson Fury may get knocked over but will come through with a 2-1 and Pukki penalty in the 90th minute. Good luck all and hope Dennis isn't the menace they think he might be.

PurpleCanary 6,385 Posted February 14, 2020 For the NCFC bet I suggest Zimmermann as an anytime goalscorer. Meanwile I still cannot access Bet365, and there is a particular game where I think they might have odds. It is Straelen vs SC Velbert in the Niederrhein section of the German Oberliga. If someone had the time just to see if Bet365 do have odds I would be very grateful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jellytot 42 Posted February 14, 2020 Fulham to beat Barnsley please. For ncfc bet it has to be Onel Hernandez to score any time 💛💚 had a nice chat with him on Tuesday 😉 Good luck DJ, Jamie and all pups ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
