Cider_boy Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Very little time to talk about the piece when they went back to the studio, and instead of talking about us on or off the field, they just talk about a quote on the wall in the background. Makes BBC football coverage look tinpot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only to find out out, a year down the line that he’s actually got no money, it’s all been a big misunderstanding, and we’re very likely to be heading into administration during the coming new year. That would be harsh, but very amusing for our local rivals..! For everything else there’s MasterCard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Somerset Red Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Isn't it about time they shipped this dinosaur (Lawrenson) out now? Just hanging around like a bad smell, the bloke only ever moans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppyDAZE Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Lawrenson is a cock. Like someone said, when he was on local TV he always sided with Bristol Ruhhvahs. W a Nker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjak Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Lawrenson is a grizzled old dinosaur who should be be put out to pasture ..............he is well past his sell by date, and should be given his pension and ushered away. Why is he still employed? He is a grumpy old C*** who should retire. Bitter and Pointless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfieldred Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Thought it was quite funny. I think he had his tongue in his cheek. Playing devils advocate. Besides don't want too much acclaim for LJ or his methods. Let's stay under the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought the item painted us in a decent light, apart from Lawro's ludicrous take on the motto on LJ's wall - probably says a lot about why he never made it as a manager!

Red Skin Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 I like Lawro, but I thought he was harsh on LJ. My take would be that he recognises his responsibility to the players to: analyse the opposition to understand their weaknesses, prepare the players in terms a game plan and tactics to exploit them, and rehearse the game plan so the players can execute it on the day. Its a shared responsibility to get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Dazzler Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 He still "owes" Bristol a walk around in his underpants or nude (can't quite remember and really don't want to) as he said when he was a local HTV pundit that he would do that if Richard Dryden (who we sold to Southampton around 94/95) was still playing in the premiership by the end of that season, which he was, and did quite well for the Saints. Not particularly perturbed by what he said on FF as he has always been a footballing dinosaur, and I would actually have been more irritated if he had actually "got" what our club is all about. He is totally out of his depth in the modern game and it makes me wonder what he has got over the BBC that they still employ him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Ince got it easily enough, it's saying the rest of the club needs to do their jobs effectively to allow the players to be at their best. Lawro's just a **** who slates it either because he disagrees (without justified reasoning) or doesn't understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He thinks it's still about pints with mates and cutting down to 10 fags a day during preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweeneys Penalties Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 watched this morning. I lost all respect for the bloke when he got very snotty with the studio pre a Republic of Ireland game. I can't find the clip on You Tube but I did find a clip about Bride of Chucky (which probably says something about him). I remember the studio (can't remember who) just shook their head and said "wow. Where did that come from". With respect to yesterdays Football Focus, Lawrenson reminded me of a squealing kid in a class who didn't understand the lesson and tried his best to disrupt it. Paul Ince's face was a giveaway. Other people on this thread have called him a dinosaur. He is, and should be retired asap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Northski Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Just watched it this morning. Good considerate article on City, recognising this seasons achievements, right up until Lawro "got involved". Thought he'd take the floor with a good old pro rant about how the game has changed, but made himself look incompetent, utterly disrespectful and an idiot. Would imagine the programmes producers have marked his card after that. Shame he had to spoil it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Lawrenson is and always has been a prize idiot, his monotonous boredom whilst being paid to watch England (someone who despite being English chose to pretend to be Irish) just summed him up. He is part of the North West pundit mafia though, Phil Neville, Kilbane, Savage, Murphy, Trevor Sinclair, all of them employed by the BBC because of their proximity to Salford rather than actually being any good at their job.
