Lawro's Predictions

[Extended-Phenotype]

Eh?

[wolsey]

.. I am confident the Magpies have turned the corner now following their draw at Norwich last weekend.

If only things were so simple.

[Ian Royal]

Assuming you put money on all 10 results and ignored the actual scorelines, you'd have to get an average of odds of 2/1 just to break even with your half the results right.

Happy to be proved wrong* but you'd only need your 5 correct predictions to average evens (assuming level stake) to break even wouldn't you?

*although I'd always back myself against Ian's "knowledge"

Dur.

That's what happens when you barely ever place a bet and try and think it through whilst doing something else.

[RoyalBlue]

Maybe you should bet more then as you said its not hard and so you should make a profit regardless of how much you stake.

I said it's not hard to get about half the PL results right and the odd scoreline bang on. That's not a recipie for making guaranteed money at the bookies. Assuming you put money on all 10 results and ignored the actual scorelines, you'd have to get an average of odds of 2/1 just to break even with your half the results right. I'm fairly confident the bookies have seen through this obvious money making scheme and adjusted their odds on different games accordingly. For example, Chelsea 2/5 for a home victory against Swansea. Not going to get you far is it.

Bookies adjusting the odds according to what games and teams are playing?

Cheating b*stards!

stop quoting the same pcunting picture

Guess what...

Random selection by chickens returns 477% better than any pundits

Lolz

Nothing to suggest we've turned a corner then, like tighter defence displaces or a couple wins???

I saw that, gotta lol... Dawson says it was a player with a mohawk (and does a hair gesture)... and Lawrenson listens, and reacts with "Gervinho"...

Gervinho, mohawk?!

[Mr.T10]

Sheffield United have just started to stutter in League One - they are fifth after drawing two and losing two of their last four games

Reading are on a high after their comeback win at Newcastle and I am guessing Adam Le Fondre will start after scoring twice to nick three points at St James' Park last weekend.
That makes it great back-to-back league results for the Royals, following their win over West Brom, but the funny thing is that the Baggies dominated against them for 80% of that game and could have been well clear by the end, while Newcastle could have scored two or three in the first half.
They might still lack quality but what those wins show is that Reading have become more resilient. They are fighting to stay in games, and getting their reward.
They will believe they can still get out of relegation trouble and I think they will have too much about them for the Blades.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0

He almost says something good about us... Also not sure if nick is the right word for Newcastle. Newcastle were the better in the first half, scored 1 and Reading were better in the second, scored two. Reading could have scored a few as well against Newcastle, Pog missing a good chance. Typical Lawro towards Reading.

[Rex]

TBF it's a fair assessment of the match that he has given. He's still a smug pcunt though.

Think Lawro must be ill this week. He's predicting a draw against Chelsea. Is he beginning to like us??

He's definitely on crack!

[Rex]

In a smug roundabout way Lawro is saying that BM phoned him up for his advice and was right all along about the tactical changes.

[seahawk10]

We are going to beat Chelsea. There, I said it.

[Mike Hunt]

I have Pog in my Fantasy team this week.

Therefore - the will not score or get an assist.

I expect some coinage in Y26 if that happens.
