Back in Action

Jotform still doesn't appear to be on top form but is working well enough to collect your tips and allow me brief access to collate them so all is well for now.

Ashley is flying high at the top of the table after another nice result last week, with the Brookes Brothers also deciding to follow the super hoops to victory that proved surprisingly comfortable.

A couple of people have plumped for Arsenal to continue their slump and get bashed up at home to Bolton tomorrow.  Having watched them the other week I wouldn't put people off that and even had a cheeky tenner on them to finish in the bottom half of the table at 16/1.  Can still get 12's with VC if you fancy that one!

In fact that double selection means it is the 3rd "recommended tip" of the season.  The QPR result last week would have made that list but for the Jotform delays - but seems a bit cheeky to aftertime on that one.

EDIT - Just noticed two of us picked the Villa away win too.

Arsenal v Bolton (Away Win @ 15/2)
QPR v Aston Villa (Away Win @ 12/5)

Best of luck tomorrow and please find below the latest table and link for next weekend:

Footy Naps Selection Form - Week 8

Sunday, 18 September 2011

Gremlins in the System

As many of you will have discovered, Jotform had some issues this week and so I've been unable to pull together all the selections and results as yet.

It looks like most of them went through ok though and many of you also emailed me as an alternative or backup so should be able to resolve in the next day or two.

Unfortunately I managed to pick yet another loser so hopefully you guys fared a bit better than me!

Here is the link for Week 7:

No Dive

Apologies for not posting the league table last week, although not many people had a positive result so the changes weren't major.

Bingo Dave had a bit of a mare with penalties having picked Scotland to win at home.  No dive I reckon... :)

A couple of people this week have gone for Villa to win away to Everton but seeing as someone else went for the home win I don't think we can use that as a team tip so no selection this week after picking up 1 from 2 for a minor profit in Week 4.

Right then, I'm off to the Emirates for some hospitality action.  Enjoy the sporting afternoon!

International Adventures

Oddly this week, half of the matches have already taken place by Saturday morning so many of us already know our fate.

Despite some solid sounding reasoning for their Montenegro pick away to Wales ("Montenegro are joint top and Wales have nil points!") Chris and Jo are one of many who have already failed in trying to pick an International result.

There are 2 x recommended tips this week having both been selected by two players, so in theory this is where your hard earned should be going if you want a real wager!

Swindon v Rotherham (Away Win @ 11/5)
Carlisle v MK Dons (Away Win @ 9/5)

Good luck!

Here's the link for next week where we'll be back to the usual Premiership action:

Manchester Rules

Apologies for the lack of updates this weekend gents, but I've been zipping about the country without access to my laptop.

Quite a day yesterday for the Manc teams, making me look slightly silly by selecting Spurs.  Thankfully not as silly as Nigel who tipped up 13/2 Arsenal who then drifted to 8/1 before being royally spanked at Old Trafford.

Ashley is currently riding high at the top of the table, maintaining his good form from the 2nd half of last season - while 2010/11 victor Will Brookes is languishing down the bottom with a 0/3 record so far.

Name Total 
Ashley Foulkes£4.20
Dan Grant£3.20
Mike Butlin£2.67
Jon Raab£1.52
David Evans£1.47
Chris Walker£1.40
Simon Woolf£0.50
Phil Hamilton£0.40
Dave Orrock-£0.60
Ben Brookes-£0.60
Terry Reeve-£1.09
Jamie Reeve-£1.15
Nigel Grant-£1.33
Pete Stagles-£1.67
Ryan Blackwell-£1.78
Will Brookes-£3.00
Ian Dell-£3.00

Show Me The Money

So here is what we are all playing for.  A minor increase on last year with one extra player in the mix.  Due to Albie eating my HSBC security code generator I've not managed to verify the total prizes yet, so if you haven't sent it over you are in a race against the bank and the postman!

The selections sheet will be updated within the next couple of hours and I have included the link for Week 3 below already.  Due to popular demand (well, 2 people) there is now a new field added to the form allowing you to explain your justification for picking your nap of the week.

Best of luck this afternoon.


Championship Prize 1st Half Prize 2nd Half Prize
1st Place £130 1st Place £60 1st Place £60
2nd Place £75 2nd Place £25 2nd Place £25
3rd Place £50




EDIT:  Sheet is now updated with all selections for the week.  A couple of no-shows already in Week 2.


Footy Naps Selection Form - Week 3

Thursday, 18 August 2011

Ok so I lied about the prize pool info.  Have had a pretty busy week and am only doing the round-up post quickly after much badgering by early leader Mike Butlin.

Congratulations on predicting that your woeful beloved Liverpool would be held to a draw on the opening game of the season for a nice early naps result.

Overall a very positive week with 9/17 getting their selections up for nearly £12 profit overall had anyone been crazy enough to trust the group.

Let's keep that up for Week 2 - new link available now below:
