nutty nigel 7,902 Posted April 10, 2013 Greetings PUPs and welcome to week 35 of our Rays Funds For The Academy season. This week we have one of our threads greatest friends with NewYorkCanary in charge and making the final selections. Justin was meant to make the picks in March but the week got messed up and I ended up doing it. Needless to say I failed miserably but I’m glad to say that thanks to our great friend Lappinitup Justin gets another chance this weekend. Lapp’s logic being that we need Justin to take his turn and I’m just proud that us PUPs have these two stars amongst us. Last weekend Norfolkchance1’s fantastic set of selections took our all time winnings up to £2000. This is a great achievement and Ray would be so proud of us all. You PUPs were brilliant for Norfolkchance and I’m sure you’ll be just as good for NYC as he tries to get us on the way to £3000! Don’t forget for your selection to be eligible for the final six it must be listed on Bet365 website and played on Saturday/Sunday/Monday. Last week’s win was the 8th this season taking the season’s winnings past £344. With 8 weeks left I think we will improve on that for our next presentation. Here are the details of this season’s wins : - Win week 4 (Scooby)18.68Win week 5 (Mandy)53.85Win week 9 (Mr Bump)39.77Win week 10 (Kathy)30.9Win week 12 (Tilly)60.84Win week 21 (Wazzy)37.51Win week 28 (Leeds)35.15Win week 34 (Norfolkchance1)67.57Total winnings this season344.27 I’m posting this early because I am off to Nottingham to watch the U18s in the youth cup semi. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could win that cup this year. All us PUPs have contributed to the development of the players on show tonight and I will be the proudest fan there because of what we have achieved. So now I’ll hand the thread over to NewYorkCanary. Remember there’s no pressure because we are all going to be doing our best to help you get x2 by your name in the Rays Funds Hall of Fame. We all stand together with the single aim of raising money for our great clubs academy. Good luck all you PUPs..…Take it away Justin ... the Rays Funds Thread is yours....... [:)]......

AJ 1,358 Posted April 10, 2013 I would love to be off to Nottingham tonight, but I''ll be watching on the tele with my city shirt proudly on. I''ll hopefully be at the game next week though!Fantastic win last week, and if that list has anything to go by, the pattern suggests another win will be upon us shortly!I would be tempted to go for Wigan away win over Millwall, but I generally steer away from cup games.Instead I''ll head to league one, where I fancy AFC Bournemouth/Shrewsbury vs Bournemouth - AWAY WIN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
