1) The Conservative party will win a small majority at the general election and tear themselves apart over Europe. WRONG.
I was maybe a little over pessimistic but, it actually was quite an achievement for Labour to get through the election without a Conservative majority. The Tories haven't torn themselves apart over Europe, that was a little over optimistic,
2) After losing the general election, Labour will elect David Milliband as their new leader. WRONG.
Although I was close on this one, just got the wrong Milliband
3) My football team Leyton Orient will get relegated from League 1. WRONG.
We managed to stay up thanks to the great run we had under Geraint 'Big Fat George' Williams at the beginning of the year and the salvage job by Russell Slade at the end of it. Since then, Orient have only progressed, scoring goals and playing entertaining football and looking very unlikely to be relegated this time round.
4) England will get to the semi-finals of the World Cup and lose to Germany. WRONG
A little over optimistic again... but only a couple of rounds wrong.
5) Peter Mandleson will be parachuted into a safe Labour seat at the General Election. WRONG.
I'm not even sure what I was thinking with this one.
6) Jan Moir will leave the Mail after another huge twitterstorrm against another poisonous article. WRONG.
But it will happen eventually.
7) The Lib Dems will get a new leader at some point during the year. WRONG
Despite being now almost universally hated, Nick Clegg remains captain of the sinking ship.
8) I will get 50 comments on my two blogs combined. WRONG.
My readership remains pathetically small, I managed 13 overall with only 1 on this blog and 12 on Allsorts/Leftish Tendency.
9) England will draw the Ashes series in Australia 1-1. WRONG.
It wasn't anywhere near that close, Cook conquered Australia, Anderson threw off the disappointment of his previous Ashes tour, and the whole team comprehensibly outplayed the awful Australian team. 3-1.
10) Lewis Hamilton will win the Formula 1 world championship by less than 5 points from Jenson Button. WRONG.
While both were in contention most of way through, Red Bull were just too good.
0/10... FAIL.
