[quote user="lappinitup"]Sorry for being so late. Norwich City are CERTS to win this week. Merry Christmas to you all. [Y][<:o)][B][^][D][+o(][/quote]

I suppose your excuse for being late is that you were stalking TFA and the Butler on that really boring thread that started out as about McNally.

[methcanary 0]

   Sorry it''s late but it''s Man City to beat Stoke for me this week.

Good luck Fellas and all PUPs and Merry Xmas to you all.

[quote user="canary cherub "]

Weather permitting I''m going for

Rotherham  v  Darlington   HOME WIN

good luck fellas and happy christmas everyone

 

[/quote]

Rotherham  v  Darlington is OFF

so I''m going for Celtic home win

 

[Graham Humphrey 13]

In that case, I better go for something else too - Manchester City to beat Stoke for me now.

[Mandie Moo 93]

Just spotted that Notts County have postponed their fixture, so can I now go with

CELTIC  Home win

Thanks very much and fingers crossed everyone [;)]

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

Celtic vs Hamilton - Celtic home win for me too.

Good luck everyone, best of luck fellas[:)][Y]

Unfortunately I can''t make it on 29th.  I hope you all have a great time and have a ''sip'' for me[D][B]

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all PUPs[<:o)]

[nutty nigel 7,509]

 

Good morning Pups… The bet is on with Dixmar Racing, so thanks to our good friends Fellas and Billy Dixon we have...

 

8/11 Norwich
1/5 Celtic
8/15 Cardiff
4/9 Manchester City
4/9 Manchester Utd
3/10 Liverpool

 

 

 

Which will win for the Academy £76.20p.  As always I ran the same bet through one of the big bookies and the return would only be £61.70. So that just goes to show why we should bet with Billy. So don’t forget that the best odds on all the weekend football are available to each and every one of  us so if you are doing a line today or even fancy these give Billy a ring!

 

Thanks again Leon. These are excellent picks with an excellent potential return. Only real bad luck can stop us recording another win for the academy.

 

So now it’s "game on" Norwich get us under way at 12:45 followed by Cardiff at 1pm. Celtic and Man. City kick off at 3pm and then Liverpool start at 5:30. Hopefully we will be undefeated overnight so we can all cheer Manchester United on to victory at Hull tomorrow at 4pm.

 

I’m sorry to say Billy wasn’t too well today. He’s been having a lot of trouble with his back. I told him we all wish him a speedy recovery and he still hopes to put in an appearance on Tuesday if only briefly.

 

Good luck my friends[Y]

 

[Excited Canary 19]

Get well soon Billy, we ally love ya![*]

[Excited Canary 19]

Cardiff losing [:O]

[Beauseant 0]

Unlucky Fellas. It was a pretty poxy week to pick to be honest.

[Buncey 1]

Balls. Even Liverpool managed to turn up for 20 minutes of their game! Alas that''s the championship for you.

[Graham Humphrey 13]

That was really unlucky. Don''t think anybody saw that one coming. Once again undone by a freak result.

[Hissing Sid 154]

Unlucky Fellas. Cannot believe that Cardiff result. I''m starting to get a complex now. A fortnight ago I went with Sunderland, last week I was with Juve, and this week Cardiff. Its turning into a nightmare.

[Diesel Doris 127]

You''re not the only one who can''t believe the Cardiff result Sid............I''m gutted as I was on quite a good run there.[:''(]

Hard Luck Fellas, maybe some of us will be able to drown our sorrows on Tuesday evening![;)]

[scrimmage 0]

Damn it I missed it this week. Unlucky I can''t believe Cardiff didn;t win that. Anyway to make sure I get a pick this week I''ll go for Arsenal to beat Villa tomorrow.

Yes, that was very unlucky Leon. It looks like you are going to add a 5/6 to your 3 wins. You made a great effort in a difficult week.

Hope all you PUPs are having a good Christmas[B][<:o)]

Don''t know what''s going on at Cardiff at the mo . . . today they were 4-0 up at half time against Peterborough and got held 4-4

 

[YankeeCanary 0]

Fellas, while most of us get the "bad luck" message from fellow PUPS, I have to say that your 5 out of 6 this week with what you were working with is, in my view, as good a performance as any winning week. You also narrowed the choice to ensure you would choose six matches that were actually played. This was further reducing the pool to choose from, which was very small to begin with, and you almost pulled it off. Excellent!

I learnt some lessons from the original number 1, yourself. It was a tough week but there was enough out there, Christmas is notoriously difficult to predict around.

[nutty nigel 7,509]

A very difficult week for Fellas and us PUPs. An impressive 54 PUPs still managed to select with 37 getting their selections correct and two void making a success rate of 71%. This was good considering what there was to work with but, as Yankee rightly points out, Fellas did remarkably well to turn this 71% into 83% with his 5/6.

 

We know we can''t win every week but with the quality we have in our team of PUPs we will win again soon[Y]

Mr. Bump[*] seems unstoppable with 21 consecutive winning naps now. But the chasing pack are keeping with him waiting to pounce if he should slip.

It''s going to be tough this coming weekend Eddie.  I have had a look and there really isn''t much around any of the leagues with a lot of them not starting for a couple of weeks across Europe.  Thank goodness for the saving grace of the FA Cup.  If it wasn''t for that, Sid would have had a virtually impossible task.

Yes I agree. Add to that the poor weather forcast and I really feel a bit guilty for dropping Sid in it! But sometimes our wins have come in unlikely circumstances so you never do know. Sid is one of our top PUPs and if anyone is capable of doing it he is[Y]

I''ll put the new thread up later this evening to allow this one to drift away so that there''s no confusion.
