Bodrum FK have a 5-2-1 home record while Giresunspor have a 1-1-7 away record, and have lost their last six, with a 4/16 goal difference. The odds are 1/4. Good luck to all!

KiwiScot 1,461 Posted January 12 34 minutes ago, Leedscanary said: Hey everyone, As @nutty nigel alluded to last week and I mentioned in my post earlier, today marks 15 years since the passing of our dear friend "Arrdee" Ray Ducker - the lovely old boy. It was Ray who had the lightbulb moment of setting up "The Free Bet" thread. For a trip down memory lane - the first Free Bet can be viewed here https://forum.pinkun.com/index.php?/topic/22178-free-bet-for-pink-un-posters/&tab=comments#comment-190585 You will notice a few familiar names on there from all those years ago - and sadly many who are no longer with us, either picking wise or dearly departed. The Free Bet was originally negotiated with Billy Dixon of Dixmar Racing, Reepham Road who gave Arrdee £10 free to place bets with any proceeds going to charity. This was initially The Norwich City Youth Academy. As time went on, we went from The Academy, to FONCY, then the CSF and during the past 17 years have raised £30,000 for these organisations. Regular Pups presentation nights and days have happened with Eddie kindly hosting many at the Bayer Club - Pups were present along with Billy Dixon and various Football Club members over the years. These presentations have continued with Eddie forging a great relationship with the CSF and the DS team. Sadly, Billy Dixon disappeared a few seasons after Ray passed - since then the thread has relied on the donations of Pups to carry on. All under the stewardship of Eddie @nutty nigel without whom this fundraiser would have ended years ago. Thank you Eddie for your efforts in carrying this on in Ray's memory. For those who didn't know Arrdee, he had a wonderful way with words on this forum - some of his stories live on forever in the tribute archive https://forum.pinkun.com/index.php?/forum/19-remembering-arrdee/ Apologies for the history lesson - indeed, a potted history, I'm sure Eddie could articulate it better. But today of all days, I felt it needed saying. Leedscanary Since I've never met any of you so of course I've never met "the founder" so I was searching the depths of the forum last night to see what pups what like and he seemed to have a good manner about him in his postings and he is well spoke of. It was Interesting with the different terms used and I can only be thankful Nutty has simplifed his stats these days because I had not a clue what was going on. It was like trying to re-learn pups again. He seemed proud of Norwich having the only "free-bet" in the world and I'll add probably the only forum with an entire section dedicated to him. So thanks Ray for creating a good bit of fun for me to find and enjoy years down the road all the while raising money for charity. And apologies for not coming up with one of my more "banker" picks this week, as they say around here you'll get them next week. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
