I write to the Guardian very occasionally indeed, and have had two, or perhaps three, published over the years, so I guess my success rate is perhaps 10-15%. Who knows what Keith Flett's success rate is? Or is he the Guardian equivalent of Alan Smithee?


Still all to play for in the predictions Nigel and I made over ofn the predictions for 2019, but I suspect mine is more likely at the moment. (Nigel's wwe leave March 29 on WTO rules, mine was come April 1st we will still not know what we are doing)
