nutty nigel 7,534 Posted February 11, 2015 Greetings PUPsand welcome to week twenty eight of our Rays Funds season. This week we have JBin charge and making the final six selections. Now I’ve been looking forward toJB’s week since he was unlucky last season where his week to pick the finalsix coincided with probably the worst week we ever had as a team. Only 39%of PUPs picked a good selection thattime giving him an impossible task. JB has been in top form this season withhis personal picks as he’s on 22-27 81% and is in great current form havingpicked correctly in each of the last six weeks. So let’s all try and make thisan easier week this time by giving JB our very best selection from games playedon Sat/Sun/Mon this weekend and be listed on the William Hill or Bet 365 websites. For the match bet this weekendwe welcome back Jas The Barclay King who was all ready to make the selectionslast month when unfortunate circumstances prevented him. But I’m pleased Jashas agreed to pick up the baton again this weekend and try to follow up on Lapp’swin last week. We can all help by giving our best suggestions for our belovedCanaries match against Wolves on Saturday. Jas, you have £6 to spend so you canchoose up to six selections either from the PUPs suggestions or those of yourown. It seems everyweek we add to the total raised for the CSF. Last week we had Lapps win,Splutcho’s pledge and donations from Dundee and Gerry from Romania meaning weadded £62 making the current total £767. What more can I say except that’struly amazing! Last Saturday Iwatched the DS match that last season''s funds paid for between Norwich and Northampton. We lostthe match 10-7 but that didn’t seem to matter because the players had so muchfun. Their enthusiasm was infectious and I had a wonderful time. I can’t waitfor the next one and I’m so proud of you all for helping make this happen. Now I’ll handthis week’s thread over to JB & Jas. Remember there’s no pressure becausewe are all going to be doing our best to help you to success. We all standtogether with the single aim of raising money for the Community SportsFoundation. Good luck allyou PUPs... Take it away JB and Jas ... the thread is yours.......[:)].........

Trent Canary 0 Posted February 11, 2015 Top v Bottom in the Scottish Championship, where Hearts should be too strong for Livingston. Best of luck all.Fancy 0-0 this weekend for some strange reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hissing Sid 154 Posted February 11, 2015 Risking the FA Cup this weekArsenal v Middlesbrough - Home WinFor the match bet, how about HT/FT Draw/Norwich Best of luck JB, Jas and all you PUPs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katie Borkins 1 Posted February 11, 2015 League Two for me. BURTON ALBION on a good run and 2nd place, should be too strong for Oxford United (17th place).Good luck all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feedthewolf 4,846 Posted February 11, 2015 Benfica to win at home to Vitoria Setubal. Benfica are 8-1-0 at home, scoring 21 and conceding only 2. They haven''t conceded a league goal at home since September, would you believe? Setubal are 0-3-7 away, scoring 4 and conceding 20.Considering Barcelona are 1/40 for their home banker this weekend (and Real 1/12 and Bayern 1/9), odds of 2/11 seem a trifle generous.For the match bet, again I think the ''Norwich to win and both teams to score'' odds are a little generous. We don''t look like a team who are going to deal in 1-0 wins at the moment, and with the home win at 17/20 I think odds of 13/5 are rather smart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,534 Posted February 12, 2015 Sunday morning in Spain for me JB. Valencia W9 D1 L1 F26 A8 at home should be too strong for Getafe W2 D2 L6 F9 A16 away.

PurpleCanary 5,562 Posted February 12, 2015 The Belgian Second Division.AS Eupen to win at home against Woluwe-Zaventem.AS Eupen in second and still with a good chance of taking the one promotion place. A home record of 7-4-1 and 25/9, and in very good form, winning their last two home games by 5-1 and 4-1.Woluwe-Zaventem bottom and close to getting cut adrift. An away record of 2-1-9 and 8/26, and have lost both of their last two away, against teams in the bottom half of the table, by 3-1.Current odds are 1/6.---For the NCFC bet I like the look of a final score of Norwich City 2 Wolverhampton Wanderers 1, currently at 7/1.Good luck to all!
