nutty nigel 7,531 Posted October 10, 2013 This has been a great effort by everyone so far to get the picks in to give Sid plenty of time to consider. I''m looking for something different and may have found a bit of value with Sweden at home to Austria. Sweden are in good form and have a very good recent record at home in world cup qualifiers. Austria in contrast have a very poor recent away record in world cup qualifiers. If Sweden win this it will go a long way to getting them 2nd place in the group and a play-off spot. Sweden are currently 8/11 with Bill Hill. Sweden v Austria Home Win Word of warning : This selection is from the muppet that stated Spurs would only need to score one goal to beat West Ham last weekend!![:$] Good luck Ian. I really hope the footballing gods are with you this weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hector Brockelbank 95 Posted October 10, 2013 Don''t be so hard on yourself nutty. That''s gambling. If everybody agreed and everything went to form all the time there''d be no bookmakers cos they''d be getting filled in every week! As someone once said "we will pick ourselves up and go again" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,531 Posted October 10, 2013 I know Hector. And I''m not the best picker here by a long way so get it wrong a fair bit. But it was my positive assertion that Spurs only had to score a goal to win! Good job I can see the funny side[:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By my calculations if Sweden win they are sure of at least finishing second, behind Germany, so there is a great deal riding on the game. Perhaps one or other of the Norwich City players will make a decisive contribution.Good luck to all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,531 Posted October 11, 2013 Great stuff Sid. This will make tonight even more exciting for us PUPs. All we need is that little bit of luck that we always need to get all six. I hope it comes our way. Nobody deserves their name on Ray''s signature more than you. I''v placed the bet with Bill Hill and the potential return is £20.81 (obviously they don''t return the original stake because this is a free bet like we used to have with Billy).
