nutty nigel 7,534 Posted September 10, 2014 Welcome PUPs to week six of our Rays Funds season. This week we have Gravycanariesin charge and making the final selections for the very first time. Gravy hasfantastic personal stats with 24/30 80% last season and 4/5 80% this season. I’vebeen trying all 8 seasons and have never come close to achieving that. So I’vebeen looking forward to Gravy’s week and he is just the right man to follow upVindo’s terrific win last weekend. After last week’s restricted choice we’re back to normal this weekendwith all the top leagues back to pick from. So please find your very bestsuggestion for Gravy and don’t forget the game must be listed on Bill Hill orBet365 and played on Sat/Sun/Mon. Taking charge of the Norwich bet we have one of our PUPs who joined thisseason with Parma ham’s gone mouldy making the selections. Parma has alreadymade a great contribution to PUPs by patiently helping me add more stats to ourleague table. It’s also looking like he’s going to be one of our very top PUPsso I’m well pleased that thanks to our anymous benefactor he has a chance tomake these selections this season. Good as he is Parma will need your help withsuggestions for our game away to Cardiff this Saturday. Good luck Parma, wehave £6 to spend so you can choose up to six selections either from the PUPssuggestions or of your own. I’ve provisionally set the rotas for October. These are for the finalsix : - Oct 4th JellytotOct 11th HissingSidOct 18th MrAngryOct 25th NWC And for thematch bet : -Oct 4th KilliecanaryOct 18th LakeDistrict CanaryOct 25th Woostercanary In both casesif the dates are unsuitable let me know and I’ll try and change it around. Now I’ll hand the thread over to Gravyand Parma. Remember there’s no pressurebecause we are all going to be doing our best to help you to success. We allstand together with the single aim of raising money for the Community SportsFoundation. Good luck all you PUPs... Take it away Gravy and Parma ... the thread isyours.......[:)].....

Mr Apples 1,320 Posted September 11, 2014 Hi PUPs, I''m going to go for an Alex Salmond referendum special this week (and its just up the road from me) and take Hibernian to beat Cowdenbeath. Hibernian (Home Win). For the match bet I think it''ll be very tight, so I''m going for a no score draw at H/T and a score draw at F/T. All the best PUPs and happy hunting!!!

Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,220 Posted September 11, 2014 My instincts chime with several of you in that I lean towards a tight prem replica type game.Wooster has a fabulous record of high returns (his was a sample we looked at for the stats it stood out so much) and 21/10 looks a nice return on a 1 in 3 outcome.Not sure many games will finish 0-0 in the Champ, but this could be one. Anybody fancy that too?Parma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathy 733 Posted September 11, 2014 Italy for me please where I think Juventus will beat Udinese.Sorry to be pessimistic but I think Cardiff still feel they have a score to settle with us, and I suspect they will beat us this time.

PurpleCanary 5,558 Posted September 11, 2014 I like the look at 14/1 of HT/FT Cardiff City/draw. With our star-studded bench and Adams'' willingness to make changes we could fight back for a result. Good luck, Parma! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
