nutty nigel 7,509 Posted December 18, 2010 The bet is on with Dixmar Racing, so thanks to our good friends Fonejacker and Billy Dixon we have... 1/5Apoel Nicosia4:00 Sat1/4Benfica5:00 Sat2/5Fenerbahce5:00 Sat2/5St Etienne6:00 Sat4/11Napoli2:00 Sun2/9Real Madrid8:00 Sun Which will win for the Academy £39.00p. I ran the same bet through Boyle and the return would only be £29.27. So that just goes to show why we should bet with Billy. 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 and get yourselves sorted. So now it’s "game on". Four games today and two tomorrow, finishing with Real Madrid live on sky at 8pm should make for a very exciting weekend for us PUPs.Good luck everyone......[:)]............

canary cherub 1 Posted December 18, 2010 Thanks largely to the weather, this could be the most international set of picks we''ve ever had - Cyprus, Portugal, Turkey, France, Italy and Spain. Best of luck one and all - and many happy returns to Leeds Canary [^] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trent Canary 0 Posted December 18, 2010 Most of the premier league is now off, so the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will not be playing. Hopefully the snow hasnt reached Cyprus yet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buncey 1 Posted December 18, 2010 Oh well. Firstly Twente''s game was cancelled and secondly it was on a Friday... So yeah I balls that one up a right treat. I would go for Apoel but don''t really like going for my teams so I''ll take the easy option and plumb for Real Madrid and I sincerely hope I haven''t now put the mockers on it!! Good luck Fonejacker, those 6 are looking good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trent Canary 0 Posted December 18, 2010 Id been worried about the APOEL nap from the start, but luckily they came from behind late to win 2-1. Benfica are 2-1 up at half time. Fenerbache goalless. After today ive got a good feeling about this one [:)] (Oh, and well done Fonejacker for picking six games that have gone ahead!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,509 Posted December 19, 2010 Great stuff so far Fonejacker[Y] Two games left and I know all us PUPs are going to be willing Napoli and Real Madrid to victory. All you PUPs who changed from postponed games are fine. You will be on your revised selections. Great to see Leeds appear this morning, I was getting worried about you Kev.

Davo 0 Posted December 19, 2010 Well done Fonejacker 4/4 is a good place to be at this point.While it''s an honour to be chosen in the "Final 6" I always get nervous especially when it''s left to a late goal. Next up is Napoli at 2pm and then hopefully I''mm be watching Real Madrid win this evening to get us that 6/6Davo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YankeeCanary 0 Posted December 19, 2010 Hooray! Lazio pulls it out 2 minutes from the end. That''s fitting justice seeing as how many times we have lost out because of last minute results. Onwards to the last match Fonejacker. I''m sure fingers are crossed on all fronts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fonejacker 0 Posted December 19, 2010 I don''t think we are going to have to worry about the Madrid match, can''t believe I broke my number 1 rule never to bet on an italian match. They always let me down. An impressive unbeaten run last year came undone because of juventus'' collapse against Bologna.As things stand with 20 mins left, from the six games being played, there have been a pitiful four goals scored. Give me the Championship any day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
