nutty nigel 7,533 Posted February 5, 2011 I''m cautious and am always one to say the games isn''t over ''til full-time. But when it got to 4-0 I thought there was no way back!! That''s why football is such a great game! Oldahm finished 1-1 too. But Norfolkchance1, you provided us with loads of excitement today. So thank you for that, you were really unlucky, but that''s football. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Humphrey 13 Posted February 5, 2011 That was astonishing. You just can''t legislate for a match like that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolkchance1 0 Posted February 6, 2011 Really tough set of results there with still Porto to come. My thinking behind selections was to try and have three really good bankers in the three foreign games - which I thought looked pretty certain then take more risk for value on the other three picks. As I was at Burnley I missed all the goings on at St James Park so was astonished to find Arsenal had been 4 up only to draw. Equally surprising was one of the bankers Villareal lost - quite a big shock when you look at respective records. The Oldham draw sometimes happens when you have sides scrapping at both ends of table.Enjoyed my week as picker as always just a shame about the results I just don''t think Lady luck was with us this week either at Burnley or on the Free Bet.Thanks Nutty, Billy and all pickers and lets get behind whoever is picker next week and make it a winning week!

Trent Canary 0 Posted February 6, 2011 Unlucky NC1, Very tough week. Dont think any of us would have found 6 winners out of that lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,533 Posted February 7, 2011 Thanks again Norfolk. It really was a tough week. I liked your strategy. Villa Real was a real choker, and the Arsenal result crazy! I know you''ll be back to have another go next season. Next week we''ve got our friend Pboro_Canary taking over the baton, another big gun who will have Billy firmly in his sights. Heavy rain caused the postponement of Hamburg’s game. So having joined us this week Coelho is still to get off the mark. Come back and have another go next week my friend. 62 of us picked this weekend with 43 correct and one void making a success rate of 70%. Between us we gave Norfolkchance1 29 different selections with 18 winning and 1 void making a success rate of 62%. The stats show what a difficult week it was. Here is the latest PUPs League showing those with over 50% correct from at least 50% of the available weeks. Graham, Broadslim and Trent are still locked together at the top and Beauseant is right there ready to pounce. Welcome back Mandie, I’ll race you to the top!
