nutty nigel 7,535 Posted April 4, 2009 Greetings PUPs The bet is on so thanks to MisterC and Billy Dixon we have1/5CelticFonejack, Butler, Pete, Mister, GrahamH, Sparkos, Broadslim, 2/7AC MilanInchy, Shaun4/9LeicesterHissing, Muddy, Angel, Hughesy, Jellytot, Meth,4/6MK DonsLapp, Beaus,4/7ArsenalNutty, Shack,1/5AZ AlkmaarBeaker, NYC, Bump, Which will win for the Academy £60-04p. As always I ran the same bet through one of the big bookies and the return would only be £48.14 which just goes to show how well Billy[*] looks after us. Even though I say this every week it’s always worth repeating - Billy would welcome each and one of you PUPs and treat your bets the same as this. In fact I have backed a horse with him today. (It’s Rambling Minster for those who want to laugh at my misfortune in the National)[;)] Billy’s a City fan and we are the only club in the world with a free bet. Others have tried and failed. They haven’t been able to find a sponsor like Billy! As Alf would say - Yer the real ridgy-didge Billy and yer bloods worth bottlin’ me ol’ cobber[H]Now we kick off at 3pm with Arsenal, Celtic, Leicester and MK Dons. If we safely negotiate those it’s AZ Alkmaar at 6:45 this evening and hopefully the excitement will carry on to 8pm tomorrow evening for Milan.Well done and good luck all you PUPs. Don’t forget the meet on the 17th[B][Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YankeeCanary 0 Posted April 4, 2009 Unlucky Chops. I thought you had today''s four results when Leicester went ahead in the 88th minute but, not to be, as Carlisle came back at the death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Bump 0 Posted April 5, 2009 Never mind, we''ll all be back next week to give it another go. [:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,535 Posted April 5, 2009 Yes indeed Mr Bump, that''s the great thing about the free bet, we will regroup and have another go next week with another tenner from Billy. But that was so unlucky Mister! AZ Alkmaar won 4-1 tonight so it was just that injury time equaliser at Leicester that spoilt the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted April 5, 2009 I said do Almeria, :D they are the best team ever, 3-0 :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lappinitup 629 Posted April 5, 2009 That''s really tough Mr Chops, AC Milan won 2-0 so how close was that. A last gasp equaliser by Carlisle was all that stood between you and another winning selection. Never mind, I''ll buy you a beer on Friday to cheer you up!

nutty nigel 7,535 Posted April 6, 2009 So unlucky for Monkey Trousers[*] this week but it was not such a great week for all us PUPs. 26 correct naps from 46 selections gave us a 57% success rate for the week. But the top dozen PUPs had a good week so there’s no change at the top of the table. Beaker[*] and Sparkos[*] took their impressive run to 8 consecutive winning naps.This is the latest PUPs League showing those who have at least 50% correct from at least 50% weeks.PickerSeasonSeason %Trent Canary24-2789Inch High30-3586Leedscanary28-3482NCFC_Shaun28-3482Arrdee18-2282Beaker23-2979MacDougall’s perm22-2879Mr. Bump25-3278Shack Attack24-3177Pboro_Canary25-3376Sparkos23-3174Fellas25-3571Newyorkcanary25-3571Kathy14-2070Gentleman Jim24-3569Mister Chops21-3168Hissing Sid22-3367Obiwancanary20-3067Nutty nigel23-3566Delia’s Devon…22-3465Graham Humphrey22-3465The Butler22-3465BringBackIwan17-2665Berkshire Canary21-3364Cosmic Twin21-3364Muddy funster21-3364GazzaTCC18-2864Norfolkchance122-3563Yankee Canary22-3563Cityangel19-3063Hughsey15-2463Norfolkbroadslim16-26621st Wazzock20-3459Lappinitup20-3557Blahblahblah17-3155Methcanary16-3053Canary Ryan12-2352 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
