Leicester first, Forest second......ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

This clown should be sacked immediately, he obviously knows nothing about football!

Some good predictions in there too though to be fair.

He is a massive 122 places off overall at the moment. That is akin of guessing Manchester United will finish 8th...in the Football Conference North. At this moment in time, we are the *only* club he has in the right position!

Don't see what's funny about that at all. I mean, it's a bit stupid to predict this league even at all, but I bet none of you predicted the league at the beginning of the season either.

Half the forum said Leicester would win the league.

I admit that I couldn't predict the Championship either. I was more mocking the futile nature of such an activity. I understand that idea of being able to go "This side looks strong, a favourite for promotion" or "Looks like it is another dog-fight for relegation" but to give a full table seems, well, pointless. Plus, some of his predictions have turned out to be really wrong. It is the fun of hindsight 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

Yeah, I see that, but I wouldn't laugh at him and say he knew nothing about football! But I agree with you. It's still pointless predicting the final table now...

Leicester - wrong

Nottingham Forest - wrong

Middlesbrough - about right

Blackpool - about right

West Ham - about right

Cardiff - about right

Brighton - about right

Ipswich - wrong

Portsmouth - wrong

Reading - wrong

Leeds - about right

Derby - about right

Southampton - wrong

Burnley - about right

Birmingham - wrong

Hull - wrong

Watford - about right

Crystal Palace - about right

Barnsley - about right

Bristol City - about right

Millwall - about right

Doncaster - about right

Coventry - about right

Peterborough - wrong

When you at it team by team it is not a bad prediction with hindsight considering how un-predictable the league is!

It was a bit tongue on cheek due to the Leicester and Forest prediction. Them and Birmingham aside I though the predictions were quite good actually.

I think he has done pretty well tbh, the teams around the bottom are about right and Pompey would have been around where they are now without the points deduction. I think it is better than I could have done........but then again, that ain't saying much!
