    That's Villa gone for the season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    His predictions are generally sh1t imo.
    I was relieved to see he predicted Liverpool for 3rd this season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,792 ✭✭✭✭JPA


    Keep an eye on him this season and notice how rarely he predicts any team to score more than 2 goals.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,595 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    he loves the 1-1 draw we should keep a track of how many times he predicts it this year.

    Week 1 - 3 times


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,442 ✭✭✭Bandit12


    His predictions are usually a mile off the mark.

    I remember keeping track of his predictions one year, it was so laughable how few results he got right, I think he must be taking the p1ss

    In fairness, it's rare enough for teams to score more than two goals. Liverpool were the top scorers in the league last year, with 77 in 38 games - just barely over an average of 2 per game, with Arsenal, Utd and Chelsea scoring 68 each.

    Again, one of the most common results in football so no surprise that it should show up so often in predictions.

    EDIT: PS I think this is already being done here - I know they kept track of it for the last couple of years anyway and looks like they're doing it again. So you can save yourself the hassle, Jason :)

    Lawro is usually way off the mark but it's not an easy task.

    If the OP is going to go through with this for the entire season then why not see if you can do any better.

    Because it's a pain in the áss! I'll happily keep track of anybody elses predictions if they want? How about they all get marked out of 180 at the end of the season? One point for each correct part of the table?
