nutty nigel 7,902 Posted September 16, 2020 Welcome to Rays Funds, supported by Turner European Consulting and Kare Plus. This weekend we have @Indy in charge of selecting the final six results. Indy’s a great supporter of our fundraising both on this thread and with various pledge threads through the season. I was well pleased to be able to ask him to pick the final six for the first time this weekend. It’s still early doors for form but You PUPs were on good form last week and more of the same will give the shrewd Indy a good chance of getting us our first win of the season. 🔴Just a reminder to all that all selections must be listed on Bet 365 web site and be played on Saturday, Sunday or Monday of this weekend.🔴 We have @Jools making the final selections for our first home game against Preston. Jools gets his chance as a joint winner of the little competition we did for the Luton game. Welcome to this thread Jools although I’m pretty sure you’ve been here before many moons ago putting your own take on our PUPs leagues. Jools is usually found on the non-football section and this gives me the opportunity to thank those posters from there who have donated through political pledges they either won or lost. Proof that Rays Funds is for all this great message board’s posters. Jools 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. Please leave a pick for Indy too. 🟡🟢As some of you may have seen at the end of last week’s thread we have something new for this season. We are going to have a ‘Pup Of The Month’ award and I’ve been promised two Stadium Tour tickets for each months prize. It will be worked out like our league table but only the month’s games will count. I’m rubbish at explaining stuff but you’ll soon see how it works.🟡🟢 With two weeks left this months league..

Hissing Sid 160 Posted September 16, 2020 Having been let down in Sweden last week, something closer to home this time... Arsenal v West Ham - Home Win For the match bet, HT/FT City/City. Best of luck Indy, Jools (welcome btw) and all you PUPs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,615 Posted September 16, 2020 An Arsenal side who started well to win at home against a West Ham side who started badly looks great value at 1/2. Norwich 2-0 at 15/2 or Own Goal FGS at 18/1 are my tips for the Norwich game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,902 Posted September 17, 2020 For Indy I'm going down to League One where I think... Hull City v Crewe Alexandra Home Win For Jools I remember Adam Idah scored a hat-trick last time we played Preston. He also scored our goal last week. I'm not confident he'll start so I'll go with... Adam Idah to score the Last Goal 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregt 67 Posted September 17, 2020 Hi pups, my pick this week is CELTIC v Livingston HOME WIN for the Norwich bet I think another 1-0 win for us Good luck all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
First Wazzock 1,010 Posted September 17, 2020 Good Luck Indy, Jools and all PUPs Brentford v Huddersfield - Home Win Pukki to score at any time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feedthewolf 5,885 Posted September 17, 2020 Evening all, and good luck to all PUPs, but especially Indy and Jools. I'm liking this new-look Everton, and they should have plenty spare to see off West Brom at Goodison. 1/2 seems a bit generous to me. As for the Norwich game, I'll go for something speculative: 4-1 Norwich and Cantwell to score the first goal is 200/1. If it comes in, I'm going to wish I'd had a quid on it... 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,462 Posted September 18, 2020 In bocca al lupo Indy 👌....e tutti voi PUPetti 👍🏽😊🐕 I absolutely love the Ukraine, fabulous country....travelling across it by train - with old-school Samovar service - is a great memory....👍🏽☀️🌍 Dynamo Kiev will almost certainly beat Lviv on Saturday, despite having their eye on an important Champions League tie on Wednesday. Dynamo Kiev vs Lviv - Home win As an interesting back stop if you are short of options Indy, I also like Club America vs Santos Laguna in the MX Feminil 👍🏽 As for Jools’s Norwich bet, can’t help feeling a bit of a tide has been turned and that some momentum is building. Doubt Daniel will risk that too much and will keep focusing on the clean sheets and relying on a little bit of extra quality from somewhere to nick a win. Preston will be busy and combative, though something of a Huddersfield repeat could be on the cards, so a nice tricast: Norwich to keep a clean sheet, Buendia to assist, Norwich to win ✅⚽️ Parma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,471 Posted September 18, 2020 Hi Nutty, I hope I can pick after 6 tonight as I’m now in a BCM for a few hours. Thanks to all who have made some very solid picks, hopefully will be picked by 6:30. 💛💚👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathy 823 Posted September 18, 2020 I thought I’d be able to get on betting sites while I’m away. Sadly it looks like I can’t. So plucking something out of the air, MIDTJYLAND v Lyngby HOME WIN Norwich to win 2-0. Good luck all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PurpleCanary 6,381 Posted September 18, 2020 The Norra Svealand section of the Swedish Division 2. Hudiksvall to win at home against Fagersta Sodra IK. Hudiksvall have a 3-1-0 and 8/5 home record, while Fagersta Sodra IK have a 0-0-4 and 2/22 away record. The odds are around 1/6. --- For the the match bet I suggest Godfrey as an anytime goalscorer at 14/1. Good luck to all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolkngood 1,174 Posted September 18, 2020 Good Luck all !! I am going Leicester win Also for the Norwich Game Norwich 2-0 Idah to score last goal 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,471 Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) Finally finished for the weekend so time for a beer. Thanks for all your suggestions PUPs, as last week difficult to pick 6 as so many choices. I’ve tried to go with consensus where I can and fingers crossed with others as have no concept of other leagues. 1, Everton v West Brom - Home win. 2, Celtic v Livingston - Home win 3, Hudiksvall v Fagersta Sodra IK - Home win 4, Midtjyland v Lyngby - Home Win 5, Kiev vs Lviv - Home win 6, Real Sociedad vs Real Madrid - Away win For my own pick I’ll go back to Prague, this time! Sparta Prague v Zlin - Home win. My suggestion for Norwich Jools, Pukki to score 1st goal or 4-0 win, feeling confident that we’re due to thump someone. Thanks for all the help, good luck to all 💚💛🍻 Edited September 18, 2020 by Indy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmic Twin 192 Posted September 18, 2020 I'm also going for a home win for Vasalunds IF v. Team Thoren FF. Good Luck, Indy! Sorry I'm late. For the match bet - Hernandez to score any time. Good Luck, Jools! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
