nutty nigel 7,533 Posted March 19, 2011 The bet is on with Dixmar Racing, so thanks to our good friends Justin and Billy Dixon we have... 4/7FK Skendija (Macedonia)1:00 Sat1/5Rapid Vienna (Austria)3:00 Sat1/7Barcelona (Spain)7:00 Sat1/2Udinese (Italy)2:00 Sun1/2Aris Salonika (Greece)5:00 Sun1/6Porto (Portugal)8:15 Sun Which will win for the Academy £46.57p. I ran the same bet through Boyle Sports and the return would only be £33.19. Which once again is a huge difference, nearly half as much again! 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". The games are spread all over Europe throughout the weekend starting in Macedonia this lunchtime and finishing in Portugal on Sunday night. Good luck everyone......[:)]......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mister Chops 7 Posted March 20, 2011 Bad luck again - I''d love to see this season''s stats against last season''s, it seems to have been much harder to pick winners this year unless you go for Man U/Barcelona every week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,533 Posted March 21, 2011 Thanks again NewYork. This turned out to be a difficult week and, as the stats show, we would have needed a huge amount of luck to win…. 55 of us picked this weekend with 37 correct, making a success rate of 67%. Between us we gave Inchy 28 different selections with 16 winning making a success rate of just 57%. Here is the latest PUPs League showing those with over 50% correct from at least 50% of the available weeks. Beauseant still leads but Trent is still just behind in second. The dotted line seperates the top 40 because only the top 40 at the end of the season will be assured of a go at the final selections next season.

And I was annoyed about it earlier in the season because Ray and I always tried to give international weeks to the top pickers in our league. When I worked out the rota for this season I had last years top PUPs in those weeks only to find the games being played on a Friday. However, next weekend many of the games are on the Saturday and we have Beauseant making the picks. Having said that you PUPs have risen to the challenge as you always do. Last season we won £241 and this season we have already won £220 with 7 weeks to go.[Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newyorkcanary 14 Posted March 21, 2011 Hi Nutty,Yes it was a tougher week than expected. I wanted to note that I think I am at 28-33 as I was 27-32 last week and Aris Salonika (my pick) did come in.
