Well it was a long time ago but ‘Lawro’ creamed me up a goodun on the last round of Premier League predictions by a score of 13 points to 3. I am starting to realise that perhaps, just perhaps ‘Lawro’ (Hansen really but, you know) is better at me than this. However this is mainly because he has nothing to do all week apart from his predictions. I meanwhile have to work, move house, nurse a terrible gambling addiction, sleep on an awful single mattress and drink quite a lot of free Heineken at Leicester Square film premières. So as we move into week 8 of the season I hereby declare that unless I give the goatee bearded one a pasting this week then, well, the experiment may well be over. This time could surely be spent better elsewhere. Especially as nobody reads this anyway.
Geordies v Liverpool
Hansen is clearly away again and so ‘Lawro’ has gone for a Liverpool draw. Ridiculous.
My prediction 1-3
‘Lawro’s’ Prediction 1-1
Arsenal v City (N)
It never fails to upset me when ‘Lawro’ and I agree. Considering how often this happens how the feck is he 20 points ahead? Kermit Ozil is out but Santa Cozorla is back. An easy win for the Gunners with tougher tests ahead.

Chelsea v City (C)
More agreement. Yawn.

Everton v City (H) (Tigers)
Blah.
MP 1-0
LP 2-0
Man Utd v Super Saints
I have completely lost interest in this whole thing but I both hope and think that ‘Lawro’ is wrong about this. Saints play better the better the opposition and United will have to go hell for leather for three points here, thus playing right into our hands! Mwah ha ha.

City (S) v Baggies
Don’t care.

City (Swans) v Sunderland
There is only one manager currently active in England that might rival Paulo Di Canio for being an idiot and it is Gus. Enjoy the Championship next year Sunderland.

Hammers v City (M)
Blah.

Spurs to bounce back.

6 pointer turns into 1 point eacher. Both gaffers out by Xmas.
