The bet is on with Dixmar Racing, so thanks to our good friends Muddy Funster and Billy Dixon we have...

 

 

4/7       Swansea          12.45 Sat

1/4       Bayern Munich           2:30 Sat

1/2       Leverkusen      2:30 Sat

Evs       Bournemouth  3:00 Sat

8/11     Southampton   3:00 Sat

4/9       Palermo          5:00 Sat

 

 

Which will win for the Academy £137.02p. I ran the same bet through Boyle Sports on line and the return would only be £106.36. Which, as usual, shows the huge edge you can get by betting with Billy. Dont 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". All the games are played today starting with Swansea at 12:45 and finishing in Italy this evening at 5pm. Those of you going to the game today have fun and party hard![<:o)] If you can’t get there party anyway [<:o)][B]and hopefully by this evening we will be celebrating another win for the academy.

 

 

Good luck everyone.......[:)].........

Arsegrapes.

Sorry everyone. Leverkeusen and Bournemouth had shockers! Still at least Bayern Munich had a close game!

Gutted - I dodged so many bananaskins as well - Norwich, Huddersfield to name just two. Hopefully I can see one or two of you for a drink Tuesday night to comiserate :o(

Unlucky Muddy, great effort pal. [Y] Last game of the season (for some leagues) is always incredibly hard to pick with a lot of dead rubber games. I am ever so sorry I forgot to do my nap to try help you out, but you still did a jolly good job without it! I am going to have to go with a Sunday game then and with not that much to choose from I will go (relatively) safe and predict a Barcelona win over Espanyol.Cheers Nutty[Y]

Now ther''ll be no sorrys on this thread Muddy. It was a great effort and we''ve had a great season just like our beloved team. John Landamore (FONCY) is proud of all you PUPs just as I am. He told me last night that what we have won this season is brilliant. I''ll be in touch and let you know where we are drinking on Tuesday. It would be great to meet you.

 

I met Devon for the first time today. He''s a top man. In fact the Nelson was overrun with PUPs after the game. It''s been a great day. So between last night at the quiz and today I have been in the company of Devon, CTID, Graham, Beaus, Lapp, Team Totty, Tilly, Gaz, Smudger, WITS, Kathy, Leeds, Sid, Chelle and Duncan. I hope I haven''t forgotten anyone. Please forgive me if I have.

 

Congratulations to Chelle for being on the pitch in the final four for "Fan of the Season". I always think it''s academic who actually wins because all four are as good as winners.

 

I haven''t done the stats yet but I will as soon as I can. But I know that Swansea won 4-0. So Beauseant will be crowned Champion of the PUPs League. Congratulations Robin, it''s well deserved having been up there all this season. (over 90% last season too). So there will be another new name on our trophy at our presentation night later in the summer.

 

Saturday 21st has been chosen as the date for our end of season social and promotion party. I''ll post more details later but it''s going to be a great night.

 

It''s a special time to be a City fan right now. And having all of us together, not just on here but in the Nelson and the Club makes it even more special. We will all remember this season forever[<:o)]

Thanks again Muddy.  This turned out to be an extremely difficult week as the stats will show. You ended up with 4/6 and did considerably better than we did as a group with our suggestions. Everything has to fall in place for us to get a win and too much went against us this weekend.

 

Here are those stats : 54 of us picked this weekend with 31 correct, making a success rate of 57%. Between us we gave Muddy 29 different selections with 59 winning making a success rate of  59%. Muddy easily bettered those percentages ending with 4/6 67%

 

Congratulations Beauseant on your deserved success winning the PUPs League. You are now a member of a very exclusive club. Your final total of 33-37 89% is outstanding considering the extremely difficult season us PUPs just had.  You managed to avoid countless banana skins to achieve this score and you should take great satisfaction from it and from the fact that the guys making the final selections could rely on your suggestions to such a great extent. I will get the trophy to Kev so that he can get your name engraved ready for our presentation night later this summer.

 

Well done to all the PUPs who have made the Fab40. Especially Trent, who pushed Beaus all the way finishing on 35-40 88%. Another tremendous effort Tom and surely your turn will come.

 

The real success is the success of this thread and the £336.68 that we will be presenting to FONCY later this summer. 75 Pups have made selections this season and each and every one of you have contributed to raising that money.

 

 As always a huge thanks must go to Billy whose generous sponsorship of this thread is unique. But it doesn’t stop there because his generous odds make the total what it is. The same winning weeks would have amounted to just £239.24 had we been with one of the “big houses” online. As I always say – That’s why we should all bet with Billy.

 

Thanks again all you PUPs for your tremendous support and efforts throughout the season. Special thanks once again from me to LeedsCanary (Kev) who helps me more than any of you could know.

 

I will be at the parade tonight. For any of you who would like to meet up some of us will be in the Coach & Horses just after 4pm.  I don’t know where we will be later but if you want to find us my mob number is 07876778743. Otherwise I hope to see loads of you at our end of season social and promotion party on Saturday 21st May.

 

Here is the final PUPs League showing those with over 50% correct from at least 50% of the available weeks. Beaus is the star and well done again on your tremendous record Robin. But really you are all stars and should all be very proud of what you have achieved.

Thanks for the kind words Nutty, they are appreciated. The Pups are really about raising money for FONCY, not personal glory, and, while we all enjoy some friendly competition, the fact is that we all deserve a huge pat on the back for what we''ve won this season.

Huge thanks are due to Nutty for his organisation of the competition and to Billy for allowing us to empty his wallet so regularly, but this thing wouldn''t work without every one of the Pups who take the time and effort to post a nap every week. As I said a couple of weeks ago, we are all winners.

Congratulations Beauseant! Also well done to those posters who managed to "turn up" for all 40 weeks. In particular, thanks to Nutty for taking care of this thread week after week. It''s appreciated.

Well done Beauseant top picking to be the number 1!

Already looking forward to next season and this thread. I''m toying with the idea of spicing my naps up next season by backing an away win every week.

That must have been some weekend, Trent![<:o)] As it happens you followed me to Romania and Timisoara, who did actually win.

You should not feel envious CTID. Some say that Beauseant spent so much time napping the one team that he has developed a Catalonian swagger when he walks. [;)]

Nutty at the start of the season you asked for PUPs predictions for the top six and bottom 3 teams in the championship for a bet you were having. How did you get on with this and did anybody get anywhere near getting the positions right.

Wow. Did I forget to post this week? I think I did... first time in over a year I think.... Sorry about that. Crazy at work and all. I''ll be making at least 1 away trip to London next year, most likely at The Emirates so I hope to meet as many as possible then.

Yes we did Drinks and here''s the thread  http://services.pinkun.com/FORUMS/PINKUN/CS/forums/2201519/ShowPost.aspx

 

The results are here http://www.ncisa.co.uk/results.htm

 

I think only one PUP got their three in the top six and their two in the bottom three[;)]

 

My own thre entries were Nutty Nigel, Maggie Thatcher and Alf Stewart. The PUPS entry was under PUPs and because of Tilly and Kathy''s kindness our other entry was PUPs can BOGOF.

I hope we finally get to meet Justin. I will be trying my best to get to the Emirates because it will be a new ground for me. But if it''s a Saturday I will probably miss it [:(]
