How many seasons have Liverpool gone unbeaten in Lawro's fantasy league?
I think the BBC have unwittingly unearthed Lawro's long term replacementCan't fault Baynes's logic there. I support San Antonio spurs only because of the name.

He's just gone and jinxed us again
Tottenham v Man Utd (20:00 GMT)
I don't think a draw is much good for both teams - United are looking to cement their place in the top three and Tottenham are trying to break into it.
But I don't think United boss Jose Mourinho will be thinking what damage can his players do to Spurs - he will be thinking what damage can Spurs do to us and will alter his line-up accordingly.
United will still try to nick a goal, of course, but there is no way they will go there and look to completely dominate the game or even to try to open Spurs up.
They did the latter against Arsenal at the Emirates in December, and were able to hurt them on the break, but this Spurs team is set up very differently, and I think the home side will win it.
Lawro's prediction: 2-1
Fuck it I’ve been having the same thought. I think we can win the CL too. Depends on the draw and City and PSG playing each other in the QF or SF, but why not?I like the guest predictor he has this week
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42962842
In-form Tottenham take on a revitalised Arsenal in a mouth-watering north London derby on Saturday lunchtime - but will Spurs get revenge for their defeat at Emirates Stadium earlier in the season?
BBC Sport football expert Mark Lawrenson SAYS: "It is a long time since Tottenham were beaten - 11 games in all competitions - so they are on a really good run.
"Arsenal have only won three out of 13 away games in the Premier League this season, and it is on the road where I think they will continue to have issues, including at Wembley."
This week he takes on comedian Rhys James, who is a Tottenham fan.
James says he supports Spurs because "I had a very privileged upbringing and my dad thought it would be good to put in some hardship somewhere along the line".
Tottenham v Arsenal (12:30 GMT)
Arsenal have made some very good attacking signings with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Henrikh Mkhitaryan but they have not strengthened defensively.
Yes, the Gunners brushed Everton aside very easily last week, and they were great to watch.
But Tottenham will be much tougher to break down and, at the same time, they can do some damage at the other end of the pitch too.
I still think Arsenal can make a late run for the top four, but this is not a week where they close the gap.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0
Rhys' prediction: This game massively depends on who the referee is, of course, but Aubameyang loves scoring against Spurs and Arsenal are in quite good form so for that reason I am going to give Arsenal one because I think they will score... but I am going to give 38 to Tottenham. 38-1
James is a regular on Mock the Week but is not joking when he says he thinks Spurs can win this season's Champions League.
"I think Spurs can win a trophy - in fact, I think we can win THE trophy," he explained. "We have already beaten the champions, Real Madrid, so there is no reason that we cannot go on to win it. Harry Kane to lift that trophy and Moussa Sissoko to be a Champions League winner.
Of course we can win it , we've more chance than Arsenal anywayFuck it I’ve been having the same thought. I think we can win the CL too. Depends on the draw and City and PSG playing each other in the QF or SF, but why not?
Thanks Lawro. Much prefer that selection by yourself.Chelsea v Tottenham (16:00 BST)
This is Chelsea's big chance to narrow the gap on Tottenham in the race for the top four, and it feels like a game they have to win if they are going overhaul them.
It should be a lively one because there is not much love lost between the two teams.
They will both be raring to go after the international break because they are both out of Europe, but I am going to go with Chelsea to win it.
Lawro's prediction:2-0
you can't fault him here, we got such horrendous record, well only change the perception if we win...Thanks Lawro. Much prefer that selection by yourself.
