Stumped by comparison

From: Brian H Sheridan, Lodge Moor, Sheffield.

COMPARING Theresa May unfavourably with Geoffrey Boycott, Steve Kirk claims that, unlike Mrs May, “Boycott got results and had a proven record of doing the right thing for his country” (The Yorkshire Post, January 8).

The reality is that Boycott was a truly great opening batsman but was a failure as a captain both for England and Yorkshire. It is also alleged that some of those who played with him questioned his credentials as a team player.
