nutty nigel 7,778 Posted February 11, 2012 [quote user="nutty nigel"]Great selections Pete! I''ve had a good feeling about this all week. Yesterday I could smell a win and today, having seen these from you, I can nearly touch it! The first game is Celtic at 3pm tomorrow so I''ll sit on these overnight just in case there''s any postponements before then. [/quote] OK, they all look to be on so I placed the bet with 365 and the potential return is £23.77. I''ve learnt a lesson here because had I have placed the bet last night it would have been 25.61. By trying to do the right thing it looks like I did the wrong thing. Still got a good feeling about these though.

Then we have AZ at 5:45, Barca at 7pm and we end today with Benfica at 8:30. Hopefully we will still be running tomorrow when PSV kick off at 1:30 and Porto at 8:15. Thanks again for these Pete. You have been brave to face your Dutch demons head on. Wasn''t it PSV who let us down in added on time two years ago? I think you''ll lay that to rest with these. Good luck to you and all us PUPs[:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That must be the best odds that we ever got?![/quote] Ermm losing 2-0 [:(][/quote] Barca are still only 5/2 to win. Thats pretty short for a team that has to score 3. They''ve been in fairly poor form by their standards lately... Perhaps the beginning of the end? Messi been struggling a bit too, Xavi and Iniesta really are pivitol, more so than Messi, to that Barca team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted February 11, 2012 Messi 36 goals in 35, 17 assists. As far as I can remember, he''s kept that ratio fairly consistent this season. Their manager, keeps on changing the team around, Xavi and Iniesta on the bench today, last week Sanchez and Pedro didn''t start. Messi plays nearly every minute of every game, so some stuttering would be perfectly acceptable after 3/4 seasons of top class football. I think Messi is the ''key'', Xavi and Iniesta are also pivotal, but because of Messi, Barca are just that bit better than Spain.Lets keep the faith that they will perform a second half turn around, they have it in them!!

The Great Drinkell 50 Posted February 11, 2012 This is not meant to sound/be vindictive but how Ironic would it be if Barca let Pete down [:S] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted February 11, 2012 They''ve pulled one back, brought on Tello and Cuenca at half time, both decent young attackers, not quite at best team in the world standard yet, but I think they will be. Playing those two amongst others, is perhaps one of the reasons they haven''t been as good this season, Pep seems to be trying to go with the youngsters as much as possible. Game on, all hope is not yet lost, come on Barca. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,778 Posted February 12, 2012 Yes it''s kind of ironic I guess that Barcelona let Pete down. ButI bet you get another 5/6 Pete. This just shows how difficult getting all six really is. Someone else will get a win in the next few weeks and that win will be for all of us. Unlucky Pete, but you''ll be back[Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pete Raven 276 Posted February 12, 2012 Looks like Barcelona are becoming my Bristol Rovers. Even with the Chumpions League next week I thought they would have too much for a team they beat 8-0 earlier in the season. At least I wasn''t denied six out of six in injury time again, and the Dutch demons have been laid to rest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shyster 0 Posted February 12, 2012 Well, Spain has truly buggered up my folds this weekend and the Chesterfield v Charlton match was postponed, so for the sake of the PUPS League I''ll go for an FC Porto victory over Uniao Leiria. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,778 Posted February 13, 2012 Brilliant effort by you PUPs this week. 37/47 (2 void) 82% picked correctly. Between us we gave Pete 23 different selections (2 void) and 16 won a strike rate of 76%. Pete got 5/6 with just Barca letting him down. So close this week but we’ll be winning again soon.Here’s the latest league table showing those PUPs with over 50% correct from at least 50% available weeks. The dotted line is the cut off point for the “Fab 40”. Those finishing above that line will make the picks next season : - Mr. Bump 22-23 96Trent Canary 22-23 96Nrflkbroadslim 21-22 95Jed Exodus 21-23 91Kathy 21-23 91Statto 21-23 91Til 1010 21-23 91Beauseant 20-23 87Dogger 20-23 87Fonejacker 20-23 87Herman 20-23 87Hughesy 19-22 86NCFCStar 19-23 83Legend Iwan 15-18 83Inch High 18-22 82Davo 16-20 80Fellas 12-15 80NWC 15-19 79methcanary 11-14 79Chelle 18-23 78Mister Chops 18-23 78Yankee Canary 18-23 78PurpleCanary 17-22 77Scooby 17-22 77SWP=PMRF 17-22 77Devon 16-21 76Twitchy 13-17 76SD Pete 15-20 75Cityangel 17-23 74Mandie Moo 16-22 73Newyorkcanary 16-22 73Shack Attack 16-22 73Jellytot 13-18 72Graham 15-21 71Diesel Doris 16-23 70GMF 16-23 70I''m A Banana 16-23 70Shyster 9-13 69Leedscanary 15-22 68Excited Canary 13-19 68----------------------------------------------------------Duncan 10-15 671st Wazzock 15-23 65Cosmic Twin 15-23 65Ginger Pele 15-23 65Mear Kat 15-23 65nutty nigel 14-22 64Hissing Sid 13-21 62Muddy funster 10-17 59Boyo 11-19 58Gregt 11-19 58Norfolkchance1 13-23 57 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
