nutty nigel 7,526 Posted September 26, 2010 [quote user="John"]Unlucky GMF, again we''ve been dealt a harsh roll of the dice. It''s no one individuals fault, but let''s just hope the normal order resumes soon.On a side note my ''Frejus vs. Rodez Aveyron'' prediction came good, hopefully that goes someway to repairing my reputation.[/quote]Indeed it did come good John, well done with that and I am happily crediting you with the win. But we have tyo be careful with these games because according to livescore.com that game was palyed on Friday and so was useless to GMF for the final selections.Keep picking winners[Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted September 26, 2010 I''ve just been looking through again, and the top 2, which we already knew, and then 4 of the joint 5 in second place (Diesel Doris'' yet to play...) have all picked incorrectly :( shows how unlucky this week was... (although most of them did pick Arsenal)(you can also tell, i''m really busy at the moment, far to much to be getting on with :P) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mister Chops 7 Posted September 26, 2010 [quote user="nutty nigel"]Well done Mister and I hope it was a decent win! Manchester United have already been selected by Jed. Some other Sunday games selected by the PUPs are AC Omonia, Breda, Brondby and Valerenga.

Gingerpele 0 Posted September 26, 2010 I didn''t pick poorly :POn a purely selfish note, i think i''m doing pretty well, since i only just about managed to stay on the table last year, and all bar 2 weeks, my pick has been in the final selection (i think...), compared to about 3 times all last season :P (i also think i''m joint second now....)Glad i am helping the pups this season :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glad i am helping the pups this season :D[/quote]Well done young Pele, this week you picked an away win, Lucerne, and it came in. These are very difficult to call. Both Man Utd and Real Madrid let Pups down away from home this weekend. And yes, your selections have been used in the final six. In fact your form this season has been one of the bright spots of the difficult first weeks. Who would have thought at this time last year you would become one of our top PUPs[Y]Davo also correctly called an away win with Valencia.[Y]Nana - I think we were fortunate with Breda. I asked someone the Breda score and was told they were losing 1-0 and playing the second half. I thought ''well that''s this week in a nutshell because Willem had lost all 6 previous games conceding 20 goals in the process!'' But Breda manged to come back and I understand scored the winner in the 90th minute!I''ll be back tomorrow with the stats which I fear will make grim reading.

Davo 0 Posted September 27, 2010 Nutty I hate to correct you but I called correctly with a home win for Valarenga.I think I remember seeing Valencia being called but it wasn''t me.Davo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,526 Posted September 27, 2010 Sorry Davo it was in fact 1Dartmoor who selected Valencia, I got confused by two Vals[8-)]And Nana, thanks for that, if Breda scored their winner in the 80th minute we were not as lucky as I thought yesterday.[Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,526 Posted September 27, 2010 64 PUPs selected this week with only 21 being correct making a success rate of 33% which was exactly half last weeks percentage. This is because 21 PUPs were on Arsenal. But even so between you amassive 32 games were selected of which 16 won making a strike rate of 50% which was about the same as last week. These stats once again show what a difficult job GMF actually had. He got 3/6 which is 50% which again was much the same as we managed to offer him.As has been said the two PUPs with perfect 100% records went down this weekend. But even so they still head our league. But it’s really open this season and would be hard to call anyone to finish in the top six. I have though noticed that Scooby has had 5 consecutive winning weeks since being wrong in the first two.Here is the latest PUPs League showing those with over 50% correct from at least 50% of the available weeks.
