Fuel pump would be my first guess... Get some 'start ya bastard' dump a good squirt in the intake and give it a kick or better yet get someone else to squirt it while you kick it over. Presuming you've checked for spark already?
Rotten fuel ? Fuel pump ? Spark ?
Check those things
Dirty big huntsman being a prick and blocking the injector ports?
Check the crank angle sensor. Could be grotty.
It's been sitting there for two years without being touched? Damn there are a dozen things i would do before even turning it over. I'm not touching this one with a ten foot clown pole, take it to a mechanic.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I'm a mechanic. Get someone to smack the fuel tank while your cranking it. It's probably a fuel pump.
im gona say stale fuel, if theres not much in the tank top her up with fresh just and try again for awhile... maybe even pull a fuel line n ignition on to dump some ot first
Yeah, I'd empty the tank, fill up with new fuel, pull the fuel line and purge the old stuff into a can.
