Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/41717223" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I have been very impressed by Newcastle, who have been doing much better than I have been predicting they will.
Much like Burnley, the Magpies are well organised and well drilled, and are difficult to beat.
This game is going to be very close, but I am backing Newcastle to come out on top - just.
I'm pretty sure we'd be bottom 3 based on his predictions

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
Probably! I've just seen how the table would look based on his predictions. We'd be 13th with 8 points. United and Tottenham would still be unbeaten in 1st and 3rd respectively. Huddersfield would be bottom with 3 points.FactualFrank wrote:I'm also pretty sure a computer random generator would do better than his predictions over a season.

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
In competition with Burnley fan Jimmy Anderson and Liverpool fan Moeen Ali this week.Jimmy going 1.0 for Burnley and Moeen 2.1 for Burnley.
Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
To be fair to him he's been complimentary and a prediction of 13th at this point would not have been unreasonable without the benefit of hindsight. Gladly Dyche is doing such a good job and has exceeded many people's expectations so far. It's often hard to predict results in the PL.IndigoLake wrote:Probably!

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
Yeah, he has said some good things about us this season and last to be fair. It seems he predicts us to lose every week but it's obviously not quite as bad as that having seen the table based on his predictions.taio wrote:To be fair to him he's been complimentary and a prediction of 13th at this point would not have been unreasonable without the benefit of hindsight.

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
I think Liverpool are on something like a 50 game unbeaten run in his predictions. Bizarre stuff.

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
it will be a very tough game for us, Newcastle are playing some good stuff at the moment. Benitez is doing a good job with them, we will need to be on top form imho

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
It became a much tougher game for us when coupled with our lack of a cutting edge at home, we found ourselves possibly without either of our two first choice strikers and if either of them does play they may well not be fully fit.

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
There's a lot of folk on here who have Burnley on a 50 game unbeaten run if you followed their predictions.

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
Yep but ain't supposed to work for the BBC on an impartial basis ?
Yes Liverpool are his team but would any Liverpool fan think worse of him if he just gave some more realistic predictions for his team ?
More importantly how does this bloke still hold down a job with the BBC ? His miserable "glass half empty" style is so tedious. He dressses like a tramp and can't even be arsed to shave most of the time.
I reckon he's got something on the bosses - caught em with their pants down in Shepherd's Bush back in the day !

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
Well he's also said he was an Arsenal fan multiple times. Its not that serious either way, I thought he was an Arsenal fan, if he's changed team then I'm wrong.

Whether he is a miserable boring awful pundit is another matter i might agree with but making a big deal on here about him thinking Newcastle will beat Burnley and always thinking Liverpool will win says more about state of some posters on here than it does about Lawro

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
We'll have to disagree and it depends on what you term a lot but im my opinion and from my experience a lot of optimistic fans go into every game predicting their team will win.
Im not convinced Lawro has really predicted Liverpool to win the last 50 games but you seem happy to accept that on face value and besides the original point was about Lawro being biased in his predictions to the team he supports and my response was showing that is the exact behavour of a lot Burnley fans on here and football fans in general

Whilst KRBFC does of course talk sh!tr most of the time, I have to back him up on this one. Certainly earlier in his career Jimmy always said he was an Arsenal fan. It’s only since we’ve been in and around the Prem that he seems to have discovered an affinity with his home town club.KRBFC wrote:Well he's also said he was an Arsenal fan multiple times.

I've no idea whether or not Jimmy Anderson is a Burnley fan, but I would be very surprised if he isn't. I know for a fact that his Dad and Uncles are big Burnley fans and always have been.

Re: Lawro predicts a Newcastle win
Not unreasonable for Lawro to predict a Southampton victory. Most neutrals would go for a home win today, which is reflected in the betting markets - can get 6/1 on Burnley to win. Might have some of that.
