nutty nigel 7,534 Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) Welcome to Rays Funds, supported by Turner European Consulting and Cavell Healthcare. This weekend we have one of our most successful PUPs of all time @Inch High aka Inchy.. selecting the final six results. It’s been great having Inchy back these last few weeks and he’s really hit the ground running with 7/7 100% winning picks at a profitability of £4.71. Inchy is a former PUPs league champion and has five previous wins on Arrdee’s honours board. Let’s help him to a sixth with our very best selection from the games played Saturday, Sunday and Monday of this weekend and are listed on Bet 365 web-site. Please welcome @SwearyCanary who is making the final picks for our game against West Ham. Sweary won his week by being runner/up in our England competition a few weeks ago. He’s brave to take this on as the City game has been a tough gig most of the season so let’s help with some great suggestions from those on Bet 365 and Bill Hill. We once again have PUPanons insurance of £1 on West Ham to win the game. 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 wonderful sponsors Turner European Consulting and Cavell Healthcare. The sponsorship, pledges and donations all go straight into the presentation pot. It makes a massive difference to the amount we raise and I know the CSF and our DS and Pan-disability 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.cavellhealthcare.co.uk/ Massive thanks to one of our PUPs who had a bit of luck last month and wanted to share it with our DS guys so sent £50 to the pot. Here are the latest totals… You’re all invited to The Nest on Saturday 14th May for our celebration. Please see details at the bottom of this post. It would be great to see you, we haven’t had a meet up for a very long time. Now I’ll hand the thread over to Inchy and SwearyCanary. 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 and pan-disability boys and girls. Good luck all you PUPs... take it away Bernie and James the thread is yours.......🙃..... Edited January 24, 2023 by nutty nigel 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KiwiScot 1,443 Posted May 4, 2022 Lots of leagues coming to an end so many close contests and teams on the beach(Looking at you Dortmund) So...Celtic to beat Hearts. Celtic not quite on the beach yet, but winning this weekend means they can only lose the title on goal difference. So they should be up for it Welcome SwearyCanary, but this week it's a tough gig so I'm going for a plain old boring draw with West Ham being tired after their European game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwearyCanary 1,179 Posted May 4, 2022 I’ll be leaning on PUPs of experience this week and delaying my final picks until West Spam have been dispatched from Europe in case that offers a bit of insight. That or have a few too many celebrating their triumph. Fingers crossed I make a decent contribution to the superb cause. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kathy 733 Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) Evening all I'm signing off for the season as I'm off to the US Friday. I'll therefore give you my final 3 picks Nutty. 7/5 Bristol Rovers v S****horpe home win 14/5 Dortmund v Hertha home win 21/5 Inter v Sampdoria home win For City's games I'm going to invoke Sod's Law: v West Ham Jared Bowen to score (we tried to sign him) v Leicester Maddison to score v Wolves Ruddy to save a penalty v Spurs Skipp to score (someone else will pick Kane). Good luck all pickers and PUPs for the rest of the season See you all in August. Edited May 5, 2022 by Kathy 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwearyCanary 1,179 Posted May 6, 2022 Good morning PUPs! Some excellent suggestions for the Norwich picks, which have really helped steer me this week. I’m feeling vaguely optimistic about Sunday and West Ham could be knackered, but they’ll also be hungry to secure Europe for next year and I suspect Smith may be a little experimental in his approach with preseason being so short and us already down. All of which means that I think a draw seems like a possibility and my picks are, Half time/Full time Norwich/Draw Pukki to score anytime Bowen to score anytime 1-0 Norwich at half time Best of luck to Inchy, whose expertise should hopefully shine through and make up for any shortfall I create 😂.

ZLF 274 Posted May 6, 2022 Morning all & the very best of luck to Inchy & Sweary in boosting the fund pot. My pick is a draw between preston & middlesborough, where c3-1 for a poor team strong at home hosting a good team who are weak away seems like good value. As for city, i think its 9 years since we got a win against them, will it be time for a change or simply more of the same? If we are ever going to break that pattern its this week; relegation pressure lifted, time to play for next seasons starting XI and a tired wet sham means its all aligned does it? or ACN? I suspect we wont lose. <2.5 goals, pukki to score anytime & BTTS is my hopeful punt 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,300 Posted May 6, 2022 Good luck PUPS, confident you’ll finish the season strong! For me it’s the relegation playoff in Czech Rep, (I’ll never call it Czechia)…Zlin v Bohemians-Home win. For Norwich I’m going with Soucek to score. OTBC 💛💚 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PurpleCanary 5,558 Posted May 6, 2022 The promotion round in the Hessen section of the German Oberliga. Eintracht Stadtallendorf to win at home against Dietkirchen. Top versus bottom in the round. The odds are 1/10. - For the match bet I like the look of Jonathan Rowe as the last goalscorer, at 16/1. Good luck to all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Angry 1,561 Posted May 6, 2022 A home win for West Brom against Barnsley for the Final 6, for absolutely no reason. Odds 2/5.

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,820 Posted May 6, 2022 I'm too late for the six, but I would've gone for Arsenal, which has been picked anyway. In our game, West Ham may be tired mentally and physically from last night, so Norwich to score first at 7/4. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
