I’m loving this from the celebrity:

I've met the former Brighton defender Bruno a couple of times - I ran past him one day, when he was picking his kids up from school. It was the day after they had beaten us 1-0 and I was wearing my United windbreaker, and he just pointed at my top and started laughing.

Well played Bruno!

Love it. Well done Bruno. I had my Brighton flags outside the house which was quite brave living about 5 miles from Old Trafford.

As much as I hate his 2-0 or 0-2 predictions, I somehow have a feeling he could be correct on this one and I would be very happy for him to be right.

Where do the BBC find these guests? They’re either plastic ManU, Liverpool, Arsenal etc. Or they admit to knowing nothing about ‘soccer’. It’s become completely pointless.

:lol:. Yep! And for the second week running an apparently Brighton-based plastic.

I rather wish he was correct all the time. Far from knocking us, as per the traditional view on here, had all his predictions been correct we would be 11th. not 15th!

Although we would have been relegated last year, and the year before, but we would have survived the year before that, albeit with 14 less points than we actually got.

To be fair, he generally just plays the percentages, tipping the big teams to beat the little ones and the form ones to beat the strugglers. It seems that every group of fans makes the joke that he always predicts them to lose and that they always win when he says they won't and vice versa. Few people making predictions ever seem to take account for probability, always assuming that if a team is winning, it will continue to win and if it's losing, it will continue to lose, when history seems to suggests that teams (other than Man City) seldom put together long uninterrupted runs of wins. Lawrenson's approach usually sees him getting things in generally the right place, but always with the better teams having more points than they actually achieved. This seems logical, because the matches where the bigger teams are going to get turned over seem more difficult to pick. This week I expect him to talk about Leicester's injury list and say that things won't be easy for them, but then predict that they will beat us because we won't score, just as most would.

Good research. I was just going on this season.
