Trelawney also said in GOF that Death is circling above Hogwarts, or 
something like this. I think her only real prophecies were the one in 
POA and the one in the Pensieve scene in OOTP. I do think, however, 
that JKR uses the divination scenes to include some forshadowing. 
Rereading it, it comes clear that nearly all of Trelawneys clearly 
fake prediction came true in some way, as well as the ones Harry and 
Ron make up. This is why I think it's a pity, that Ron and Harry 
won't continue Divinations.
