The BBC pundit has developed a reputation for bias against certain clubs. While that might not necessarily be the case, it certainly seems as though he overrates some teams and underrates others.
The evidence for this is a table shared by Digital Spy's Matt Hill, which shows just how wrong Lawro was by drawing up a league table based on his predictions over the course of the campaign.
The biggest disparities between actual and anticipated predictions come with Leicester City and West Ham United, who would be 12th and 17th respectively (instead of first and sixth) if Lawrenson had been spot-on every week.
Of course, for some clubs to be lower than their real position, others must be higher, and that honour goes to West Bromwich Albion (seventh instead of 15th), Newcastle United (11th instead of 18th) and Chelsea (third instead of ninth).
