Tom8558 Posted 6 April, 2013 Share Posted 6 April, 2013 Although many may hate him as he is constantly predicting us to lose, I think otherwise. He is cleverly giving opponents false confidence by talking them up and us down so it's easier for us to beat them. When you look at him like this, he is vital in our survival in the PL.

sandwichsaint Posted 6 April, 2013 Share Posted 6 April, 2013 Really good footballler at Brighton. Liked or loathed at Liverpool, but always a good player. Total embarressment at the BEEB, should have gone 10 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teacher Posted 6 April, 2013 Share Posted 6 April, 2013 Prediction Saints v West Ham Saints are **** so I'm going for a record 9-0 win to West Ham. The guy is a clown, needs to take a reality check and most importantly stop this vendetta against Saints. What is it now - last 15 games he's gone for Saints to get beat?

Tamesaint Posted 6 April, 2013 Share Posted 6 April, 2013 WATCH IT. How dare you lot mock the holy one. Expect Turkish or CB Tourettes to come on to this thread at any minute and defend him. "Bellends " or "tw ats" is the least you can expect to be called. ... and we may currently be eleventh but don't let anyone think we can finish tenth or better. If we did what insult would the "gruesomme twosome" be able to use on anyone who disagreed with their interpretation of the world? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpine_saint Posted 7 April, 2013 Share Posted 7 April, 2013 In fairness to the tw*t, hes identified the top 6 correctly. He just hasnt got a clue about the rest of the table. What this tells me is that he is very aware of the football being played at the big clubs, but is totally clueless about the football being played at the rest of the clubs. Conclusion : A lazy pundit, heavily reliant on club reputation rather than realaities. The punditing equivalent of Roy Hodgson. The sort of people runining football and have always been ruining football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank's cousin Posted 7 April, 2013 Share Posted 7 April, 2013 Though seemingly an unlimited number of ways to express disgust. I take it all as a compliment - he is just so old school that he cant see how 4231 attacking pressing sides can do well in a league where too many teams are more frightened of losing and thus play defensive mixed boring stuff... so sides like us and Swansea are seen as beatable, even if we play nice football... hes just old school and become a lucky charm. he predicts we lose and more often we win... keep in going Lawro!

Northant Saint Posted 7 April, 2013 Share Posted 7 April, 2013 After the subject being brought up by Lineker at the end of MOTD last night, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Lawro finally predicts us to win against West Ham, which is obviously a terribly bad Omen for that game...

Although the sky changes happened largely because of Keyes and Grays cock up, it has totally revitalized the program with Ed and Gary.

Lallana's Left Peg Posted 9 April, 2013 Share Posted 9 April, 2013 If you want proper football analysis and discussion then there are publications and podcasts / radio shows that will do it. BBC know they need to counter to a football supporting audience that is by and large made up of morons and so tailor their content accordingly with lots of nothing discussion and obvious statements by profiled individuals. I can hack that because their editing of the matches in highlights is very good and I shudder to think ITV ever get anywhere near the Premier League highlights again.
