Lawrenson's Premier Predictions this weekend

I don't have much time for Lawro but, as Kracken said, there was fact and logic behind his comment.

 

After all, "the people who run the club" did fire someone who, not long after, became Premier League Manager of the Year.

 

I agreed with Cortese then and still think he was right now, but it makes "the people who run the club" look nuts to most people outside Southampton.

BUt thast the point Canada - nuts if you just take firing Pardew ..yep... but it is NOT nuts when you add replaced by bright young manager who has seen 2 promotions in succession etc - just think these guys should be providing a fairer reflection - not just through away comments based on limited knowledge or simply designed to rankle- if you want that there's shiedt on talk sport, but didn't think beeb were into all that white van man rubbish

True enough, FC, but replace "Pardew" with "bright, younger manager who hadn't started the season well" and the point becomes unarguable. Pardew was fired, I think, on August 29th or 30th.

 

Lawro wasn't sniping at us so much as pleading for time for NA.

 

At least that's how I read it.

Whenever I listen to him commentating on a game I do wonder if he will kill himself at half time as he always sounds so negative and depressed.

 

Agreed.

 

He's a terrible commentator. I remember him having an on-air argument with Jonathan Legard during the 2010 World Cup where Lawro called legard a 'muppet' whilst the match was being played out live.

Not sure bout nutter but must be a masochist to pay £5 and have to put up with Fry - At least its at the stage where I dont need read his replies as he just repeats his patronizing garbage 'drivel' etc tirelessly - fair play' date=' but a bit creepy that he seems to stalk - I dont think he gets the irony that for someone so overwhelming disinterested in everything I say, he spends a disproportionate amout of time and percentage of his post count devising 'witty' put downs for me. I worry that he's sat there rubbing his thighs and licking hhis screen:p[/quote']

 

Witty put-downs? I haven't seen much evidence of his capability in that department. And surely what he does manage in terms of his responses can't take much time, especially if as you say, he constantly repeats his patronising garbage, tirelessly. He probably has a standard response that he just cuts and pastes.

As I've said above. We've lost 2 from 2. Lawrenson is predicting us to lose 3 from 3. Then Arsenal away, so likely 4 from 4. I read it that he's saying "I have no idea how the owners will react to a start like that, but I hope they don't rush into a bad decision, as Nigel Adkins a very good manager."

 

Lawrenson is a bellend of epic proportions, but i think some are trying to create an anti-Saints agenda yet again.

 

Totally agree with this.
