Spot the quality journalism:

Charlton v Sheffield United (Saturday 3pm)
I was going to talk about the impact that the new manager Karl Robinson might have on Charlton, but having won the last two, scoring seven goals, you can't really say that. Hopefully he's going to hit the ground running.

Hopefully Charlton are moving to the next step, whereby the fans in the stadium can enjoy themselves, which is what going to football is all about.

But they're up against a Sheffield United team who have won their last two, and will be a very difficult proposition, so I'm going for a draw.

PRUTTON PREDICTS: 1-1


*sigh*

How did he land a job at fucking Sky?

They really do give any old turd a career.
 
Never mind that take a draw bollocks. At a push I'll take a scrappy 1-0. Owt bigger will be a good reward for the travelling masses
 
Amazing how little research pundits do into teams, you'd think since they're declaring their opinions to a national audience they'd at least bother to get their facts right. For a pig, Prutton is the best of a bad bunch at Sky though

Absolutely this. Go down there, respect them, impose ourselves, play the fukas off the park, and come home with a 3 nil Blades win in the bag. Its ours to throw away, not theirs. They wont fancy playing Utd thats for sure.
 
According to the Sky Sports EFL Podcast, Robinson will not be in charge on Saturday.

I agree most pundits seem to think that being an ex-pro alone is enough for the job, it shouldn't be. Whenever I predict I have a quick glance at the sequences, who the results were against and whether it was home or away. It still takes less than a minute to come up with a result. Am I any good? Top 14k (out of over a million) in Sky's Super 6 (Mostly prem predictions).

It's probably an edited version of some rambling shit he spoke to someone who can just about spell and use Word. He may well have said 'hopefully for Charlton' but had it cut it out to meet the word count. It's not even worth reading really,

Many new managers seem to do defer talking over now, it's a win-win for them.

If their new team loses, the shit doesn't stick and he talk about getting down to basics, but if they win, they can give credit to the existing staff while smugly knowing the fans ŵill credid the win to their sheer presence in the stands.

It's mainly because they can't have much of a positive effect in two days and risk unsettling the team. Whatever Charlton are doing at the moment seems to be working.

Some clubs will put off sacking a manager during a run of hard games so that the new manager starts with a potentially winnable game.
