West Ham have once again trolled BBC pundit Mark Lawrenson after the former Liverpool defender predicted yet another defeat for the Hammers this weekend.
Writing in his column for BBC Sport, Lawrenson said West Ham could lose to Championship side Wolves in their FA Cup third round clash at Upton Park on Saturday, despite the Hammers having secured a morale-boosting victory over Liverpool last weekend.
After talking about the other FA Cup ties, Lawrenson wrote: "I also have a feeling that West Ham might slip up against Wolves, who were struggling until recently but have won three in a row since Christmas."
Lawrenson has already predicted 13 losses - and just two wins - in the Premier League for Slaven Bilic's side before his FA Cup one which, if had happened, would have left the Hammers sitting second from bottom in the table and not in sixth place, where they currently are.
Unsurprisingly, then, such predictions from the ex-Liverpool man has resulted in West Ham's Twitter account flagging up Lawrenson's inaccurate foretelling abilities on the social network site.
The Hammers wrote on their Twitter account on Thursday night: "LAWRO: We are sure you are all as surprised as we were that Lawro has predicted #WestHam will lose on Saturday!"
The tweet resulted in fans also having their say on Lawrenson's predictions, with some of the best responses listed below.
