nutty nigel 7,533 Posted March 3, 2010 Greetings PUPs and welcome to week thirty one of the free bet season. This week it’s our good friend Obiwancanary in charge and making the final selections. Obiwan has been with us since the beginning of last season and he has been a very consistent picker in that time. This season he is on 86% and it’s incredible to think that the standard is so high that there are 13 PUPs above him. Last season 86% would have taken 2nd place in our PUPs league. Obiwan is in cracking form of late too where he hasn’t been wrong for three months. But even though Obiwan is in such good form he will still need all your help to get his name on our line of fame. We have the FA Cup Quarter Finals this weekend as well as league action in England, Scotland and Wales as well as all the major European Leagues to choose from. Last week was another tremendous week from you PUPs as you made light of a difficult set of fixtures with over 80% of you napping correctly. More of the same will help give Obiwan a great chance of success.Now I’d just like to bring to your attention that our great friend Beauseant is once again running the Grand East Anglia Run for Cancer Research in May. This is a great cause and it’s a huge effort on his part that deserves our support. His little legs will have to go nineteen to the dozen to keep up with all the other runners.[;)] But seriously I will be sponsoring him and wish him all the best and if you PUPs want to support him Rob has set up an online donation page at www.justgiving.co.uk/robsGEARI’ll hand the free bet over to Obiwancanary now. As always there’s no pressure, because we are all going to be doing our best to help you get your name in the Free Bet Hall of Fame. We all stand together with the single aim of raising money for our great clubs academy. No blame and no shame on the free bet pages. So take it away Obiwan... the free bet is yours..............[:)].........As always I leave you with Ray''s signature which now reads: -Carve their names with pride.Yankee,3,Fellas,3,P''boro,2,Mr Chops,NewYork, Inch High, Blahblahblah, NCFC_Shaun, 1st Wazzock, Fonejacker, Norfolkbroadslim, yes Norfolkchance1 £789 for the Academy,so far.

I am a Banana 0 Posted March 3, 2010 After not napping correctly in the past 2 week i feel i need to get back on track! looking at the FA cup this week and have seen both of the saturday fixtures and on paper they both look very ''drawy'' and have decided to go for Fulham Vs Tottenham DRAW!im sure i will have picked the worng fixture and pompey brum will end in a draw and spurs will snatch this one, but with fulham being at home i just feel they will show enough fight to manager a draw(the home team are slightly lower in the table tactic) good luck OB1 [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
