nutty nigel 7,902 Posted April 22, 2020 Greetings PUPPPs. Great picking last weekend with us getting most of the draws in our picks. But even then we need a huge slice of luck to transfer that to the final 11. But if we keep getting around the target we could fall lucky one week soon. But remember that being here doing what we do is the reason we raise so much money. What we win is the icing on the cake. Don't forget these threads are open to all and you just need to... Choose one match that you think will end in a score draw. The matches obviously aren't played but there is a Pools Panel who judge what the outcome would have been. Any money won will go to the CSF like with the usual Rays Funds. This is kindly financed by our anonymous benefactor PUPanon and open to all posters from any part of this message board. We also have a competition between ourselves for who wins the most points from their picks This week's 11 will be chosen by top PUP PurpleCanary on Friday evening. Purple is also going to take up PUPanon's kind offer and try to pick a winning line from the real games being played this weekend. Good luck and here are this week's matches...

This is a little bit like old times with a match bet as well as an acca. And of course the pools. It's not as easy putting them on because I'm not so sure what I'm doing. Some names look different so please check I got them right. I've put the coupon on. I'm sure Horace Batchelor would approve of your selections. (More on Horace at the end!) This is what we have : - Thanks for the Acca. I've used Bet365 because they were on there and the potential return is £232.76 as opposed to £161.01 on Paddypower. I need you to check it carefully although I think it must be right. Taiwan Steel is Taiwan City? Here are the details : - And it's great to have a match bet back! I put those on with Bet 365 too. Here are those details : - It will be great to have a game to follow once more. The very best of British Purple and all you PUPPPs🤞🍀👍 Here's Horace.... http://www.turnipnet.com/whirligig/tv/memories/snippets/snippets16.htm Edited April 24, 2020 by nutty nigel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PurpleCanary 6,386 Posted April 24, 2020 Hi nutty. Thanks for all that, and getting the better odds. Yes, there are some variants on the names, but you've got them. Taiwan City is Taiwan Steel, and in the last selection UKSoccerway had a very different name for FC Asgabat's opponents to that Paddy Power was using but it must be the same match. Matches 2 and 3 are tomorrow and the rest on Sunday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
