nutty nigel 7,534 Posted May 6, 2010 2pm on Friday is fine Star. I''m sure all us PUPs will do our best to get our suggestions in by Friday lunchtime to give you all the help we can. Tilly - It just goes to show there''s a first time for everything[;)] Now I have been looking after our good friend Hissing Sid''s selections since he left them with me before he went to do his stint in the desert. If you ever get the chance to look in Sid we all send our best wishes and look forward to your safe return home. Sid''s selection is :-West Ham v Man City Away Win And of course, as always, Sid left his best wishes to Star and all us PUPs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beauseant 0 Posted May 6, 2010 I can''t see Chelsea blowing it now, so my final nap is CHELSEA v Wigan HOME win.This has been my first full season as a Pup and it has been great fun with lots of good banter. I''m looking forward to seeing you all on the 4th ( and., I''m sure I''ll be seeing many of you in the Nelson on Saturday!), but would just like to add my thanks to Nutty for all his hard work in making it happen every week, and to Billy for his generosity.Finally, best of luck to NCFC Star, on of my favourite posters, and to all you lovely Pups who make this the one thread not to miss each week in what is often, sadly, a sea of inanity on here.

nutty nigel 7,534 Posted May 6, 2010 Storm chasing sounds interesting Kathy[li][st][^o)][Y] Hope you have a good time and hope to see you at our meet on the 4th June.As for my pick this week - I don''t think it''s been selected yet so I''m going to suggest a home win for Real Madrid. Barcelona face a tough trip to Sevilla so Real will want to win at home to Bilbao and hope Barcelona drop some points.Real Madrid V Athletic Bilbao Home Win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leedscanary 339 Posted May 6, 2010 Good luck NCFCStar.What a priviledge it has been to pick again this season. I thank Ray, Eddie and Billy so much for giving us so much enjoyment with this weekly thread, and also the opportunity to forge lifelong friendships.This week, as much as it pains me to do so, LEEDS v Bristol Rovers - HOME WIN is my nap this week.Really looking forward to seeing some new faces along with my many PUP friends on the 4th June. Great Drinkell - bring your arrows boy, we have a score to settle! (oh and bring yer Nana too!)[Y]Have booked a hotel for night, and am bringing Mrs Leeds ands Leeds Jnr to the fine city for a couple of days - but they''ll probably go to the cinema if I''m on a beer and darts mission [;)]Well done everyone this season, its been a blast. Now lets see if Eddie has a silvery tongue like Ray''s in trying to convince Billy to let us do it again!Leedscanary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Statto28 0 Posted May 6, 2010 I came late to the PUPs thread but have thoroughly enjoyed playing my small part in what one previous poster stated was the best thing on the internet ;) Thanks to all who make it so from Billy and Nutty to all the other pups and of course Ray who started it all off - I''m unable to make the meet but really hope you all have a fantastic time. So for my last pick of the season, I shall change the habit and rather than pick with my head, pick with my heart. With that said, it has to be Norwich Vs Carlisle - Home Win So, for the last time this season, heres hoping for both a City and PUPs win Cheers one and all Statto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good Luck NCFC Star.Well done to everyone who took part and to those who won.Lastly thank you Billy and nutty for allowing this to happen it''s been good fun and FONCY as ever are the true winners.

Graham Humphrey 13 Posted May 7, 2010 Sorry, bit later than planned from me but couldn''t be helped. This week my pick is Man Utd to beat Stoke.Best of luck to ncfcstar - that looks a very sound set of picks and I can''t see you losing here.As it''s the last pick of the season (gone quickly eh?) I would also like to say well done to everyone who has taken part, and especially those who have claimed a victory this year - a tidy sum raised for the Academy once again. And, of course, a big thanks to Nutty for his excellent work and dedication in running this all season (Ray would be proud I''m sure), and Billy for being incredibly generous in allowing us to do this for yet another season.

nutty nigel 7,534 Posted May 7, 2010 Thank you for these Star, they look nailed on to me and surely only bad luck can stop you from completing a unique Free Bet Hat-trick. I will get these to Billy in the morning and post the odds on here. I popped in to see Billy yesterday afternoon and told him of all the good things you PUPs have been saying about him this week. I''m sure he appreciates it. There''s no computer in Billy''s shop so I don''t think he ever sees this for himself. He had a big smile because we''d won again last week. He really is an incredible guy but of course, like us, he is a City Fan. The good news is that Billy and Angie can make our meet on 4th June. So the darts challenge should be back on and we won''t have to throw them at young Nana. Now Kev, I know I mustn''t serve ale to young Nana and if in doubt I have to ask him for ID. This happened to me just the other day when I was drinking in one of those bars down Riverside! A lovely young lady behind the counter asked me for proof I was 18. Just about made my day that did! Five grandchildren and I still get asked for ID in the pubs!!! Of course a similar thing happened to our good friend Tilly a few weeks ago. He got on the bus and when he paid his fare the driver said "You do realise if you apply to the Council you can get a pass so you travel free"![;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leedscanary 339 Posted May 7, 2010 Sounds like you''ve been down Riverside this afternoon Eddie!Can''t wait to see you all again on the 4th.Hope all the Pups enjoy the game and celebrations tomorrow and Thursday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
