nutty nigel 7,509 Posted April 1, 2011 [quote user="Mister Chops"]Thank you for all your naps this week, as always it''s great to see how much time and effort people go to in order to find something which is obscure and yet seemingly infallible. This season I have been far from infallible and I hope that the stars choose this week to shine on me, as I think at the moment I find myself in Shyster''s Beazer Homes League (Reserves) Second XI. [8o|]So here goes...I haven''t selected Norwich because I am wary of (a) New Manager Syndrome, (b) Norwich''s continued record of drawing against teams we should put away (Preston, etc.) But I also haven''t selected them because I don''t want to be a jinx and hopefully they will come good and prove me wrong.[&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&]1. ARSENAL to batter Blackburn2. BASEL to beat Neuchatel Xamax3. CHURCHILL BROTHERS (too delicious a selection to ignore) to beat ONGC4. REAL MADRID to beat Sporting Gijon5. BAYERN MUNICH to beat Borussia Monchengladbach6. WYCOMBE WANDERERS to beat Stockport Countyif (3) is not nappable, then my backup isLEVSKI SOFIA to beat Rakovski[&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][&][Thanks again and good luck to all of you and to our Norwich City this weekend.[/quote] Great selections Mister. I really believe they we will get us back to winning ways. I am assuming the India game is ok as it''s priced up. We''ll see what Billy says in the morning and then I''ll post the odds one here.

nutty nigel 7,509 Posted April 2, 2011 The bet is on with Dixmar Racing, so thanks to our good friends Mister Chops and Billy Dixon we have... 1/5Bayern Munich2:30 Sat4/7Wycombe Wanderers3:00 Sat1/4Basel4:45 Sat2/11Real Madrid5:00 Sat2/7Arsenal5:30 Sat1/9Churchill Brothers8:00 Sun Which will win for the Academy £29.78p. I ran the same bet through Sporting Bet on line and the return would only be £25.39. Which once again is a big difference. 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". Our matches start in Germany this afternoon and finish in India on Sunday night. Could this be a winning weekend for the Canaries and us Pink Un Pickers?Not ‘arf[H] Good luck everyone.

Mister Chops 7 Posted April 2, 2011 I would just like to point out that I didn''t select Norwich City and if I had done, they would have drawn 1-1. For those not aware yet, this is because it''s all about me. What a great result though [:D]Wycombe wonBorussia wonBasel are currently 0-0 with 60 minutes left, so it''s squeaky bum time [*-)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,509 Posted April 2, 2011 Basel won too Mister but real lost at home to do us! Once again I have to say unlucky on this thread but there''s nothing to be despondent about. We will always lose many more weeks than we win. That''s the way of it. But thanks to you PUPs and Billy we present a cheque to the FONCY each year and that gives us a small stake in the club we all love. How cool would it be to Rays funds for FONCY in the Premier League[H][Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Chops 7 Posted April 2, 2011 Arsenal 0-0 too, so that''s very disappointing. Heigh ho, thanks for letting me pick this week and at least we saw a great NCFC performance to lift the spirits - on to next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Humphrey 13 Posted April 2, 2011 Disappointing that Arsenal bottled it again.Even more disappointing that Jose Mourinho chose this week to lose his long unbeaten home league record - his first defeat in 151 (!) home games.

Pete Raven 276 Posted April 2, 2011 When selecting Real Madrid I remembered that their opponents beat Barcelona earlier in the season. Oh well.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trent Canary 0 Posted April 3, 2011 Unlucky Chops, with Arse and Madrid not coming in I dont think anyone would have found six on this occasion.Speaking of Madrid, have been avoiding the ''Obvious'' picks recently as they seem to be so unreliable, lesson learned. Back to the estonian second division we go [;)] Although Purple Canarys picks interesting me, some fantastic research must go into them - Bravo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a warning for nutty, this is academic in terms of the PUPs bet but, depending on which website you trust, my Indian selection is either now taking place tomorrow or has been postponed to a date to be fixed. I suspect the former. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,509 Posted April 5, 2011 Thanks again Mister. You never really stood a chance the way the results went as the stats will show. Here are those stats: -57 of us picked this weekend with 31 correct, making a success rate of 54%. Between us we gave Mister Chops 26 different selections with 18 winning making a success rate of 69%. Here is the latest PUPs League showing those with over 50% correct from at least 50% of the available weeks. The top 3 all had losing selections this week. Beauseant remains in poll position while Inchy and NewYork have joined Trent right on Beaus’ tail. The dotted line separates 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. With 5 weeks left this is extremely close.
