Fleet Street Fox opines….

“Ed Miliband blithely says he can win in 2015 and he will ‘relish the next 10 months’. If it’s anything like the last four years of misery and ineptitude it’s going to be like being skinned alive for those of us who think the Coalition needs to go in the same evolutionary dustbin as webbed feet and the vermiform appendix. If England are to qualify, Italy needs to win against Costa Rica and Uruguay and we need to beat Costa Rica 300 to 0. If Labour are to make it into Downing Street next year Ed has to utterly destroy Theresa May, George Osborne, half the alumni of Eton College and convince 20 million people he’s not a spod. What’s he doing? Waiting for the other side to destroy themselves, while pootling around in the wrong half while his own team whispers behind him. His strategy is to wait for the Coalition to leave the pitch open, then dribble up to the net and gently tap the ball in while David Cameron’s picking his nose.

But it’s worse than that. He’s actually got an open goal in front of him and can’t even spot it…. Anyone would be better than this. ANYONE.”
