Rays Funds for the CSF with the PUPs Season 16 Week 15

[nutty nigel 7,870]

Welcome to Rays Funds, supported by Turner European Consulting and Cavell Healthcare.

 

This week’s picture is from last Saturday at The Nest where our wonderful DS team made the draw for the WC Sweepstake.

 This week we have @ZLF making the final six selections. Zip’s one of our intrepid value hunters who always picks a different option for the PUP in the hot seat. Already this season he’s had winning picks at 1.54, 1.25 and 1.21. We usually find him challenging at the top of the profitability league but he’s been unlucky in the last few weeks. However, although form is temporary class is permanent and I’ve no doubt ZLF will be up there by the end of the season. With the World Cup many of our usual hunting grounds are on a break but we still have League one downwards in England plus plenty of leagues across UK and Europe to pick from. So let’s all help ZLF set the WC break off with a win by finding our best selections from the games played on Sat, Sun or Mon of this weekend that are listed on Bet 365.

No Norwich match this week but @Indy's kindly funded Both Teams To Score until City’s next game. We have @NFN FC making those selections this weekend. NFN is having a brilliant season leading our profitability league on +7.12. Let’s help him find some BTTS picks from those listed on Bet 365. NFN, you have a tenner to spend split however you like between the PUPs suggestions and your own.

As always a massive thank-you to our benefactor PUPanon2 for making the Norwich match picks possible this season. 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.

Good luck all you PUPs... take it away Stephen and James, the thread is yours.......🙃........

A funny old week to pick from, this. I'm sure someone else will go for England to beat Iran, so I'll steer clear of that and go for Sheffield Wednesday to beat Shrewsbury in League One (odds are around 9/20).

Best of luck, @ZLF... quite the challenge this week!

[KiwiScot 1,679]

Aye a season of Pups includes many weekends without the low hanging or obvious fruit. Never obvious nor fruitful the lower Scottish Leagues continues and it's form team vs non-form team. Dundee v Hamilton - Home Win

BTTS - Dorking v Bromley

Nutty I'm good for that weekend of the 31st Dec. I notice we are playing Reading on Friday the 30th of December and also Watford on Monday the 2nd of January. Am I doing both? which is no problem btw or if you want to spread the love.

I'd forgotten to look for TV changes. Do them both for sure. Tenner on each. 👍

My main worry for Christmas and New Year was if the trusty old site fails us. I know I can always get in touch with you.🙃
