I have never been a great tipper of sporting results. I can go years without picking the complete weekend's round in the footy tips contest. With that in mind, and to make it easier for you to mock me in perpetuity, I present my prediction for the 2013-14 Ashes, as made on the day before the First Test:
Prediction? A gloomy one: Australia 0 England 3. #ashes #worldashesyear #uniteAus

At the time of writing, Australia is on the brink of winning the Second Test in Adelaide by >200 runs, having won the First in Brisbane by 381 runs.
