Neil Kinnock is Welsh, and we still cheer him.  Given that Craig Bellamy achieved more for Norwich City than Neil Kinnock did, I think a round of applause would be perfectly fitting.

Speaking personally, I could not turn five fishes and two loaves of bread into enough food to feed five thousand.  Please don''t judge Paul Lambert as if he is anything other than a very good Scottish football manager.  

[quote user="BlyBlyBabes"] We need a strong and effective supporters organisation to complement the recent changes at the club.  Perhaps there should be a requirement for each age cohort and geographical region to be represented on the Committee? [/quote] I could not agree more with this statement.  We also need a strong and effective opposition to complement our political system, and I will deliver this with my colleagues, all of whom were elected by the party without my say-so and whom I will now force into the cabinet jobs I think they will be least likely to cock up.  You sound like my kind of straight talking, democratic fellow.  How do you fancy the Foreign Office?  

I wouldn''t exclude anyone based on past history, I think it''s very much a case of a fresh start, clean slate and new leaf turned over. And that goes as much for Ed Balls as it does for Jens Berthel Askou.

I would be interested in his views on continued devolution to the Northern Irish parliament, and whether he feels that a united Ireland is a realistic goal given the largely sectarian troubles of the past few decades appear to be resurfacing? Does he feel, as I do, that a strong economy would mitigate the social unrest that threatens the Irish peace situation? And why for the love of Jesus, May and Joseph does he keep picking David Healy, and is it only because Jamie Cureton isn''t Northern Irish?

If I were your Prime Minister, I would happily appoint him as court jester. The problem I think Mister Chops has is that he needs someone to play alongside, and since First Wizard left the forum he has been lacking quality balls to feed off.

For me, it depends whether the pig has been stitched together in Britain, or whether it is tainted with the tiny bloodstained hands of third world slave labour.

If I were your Prime Minister, I would insist on all football clubs allowing adequate funding, proportionate to that of their expenditure on foreign players, be used to fund local talent from under 5''s upwards, in the hope that eventually we will bring through enough talent from the home nations to do ourselves justice at both club and international level.

One of my main priorities as your Prime Minister will be education.

It''s time we had a sensible and grown-up debate in this country about funding opportunities for young and disadvantaged people, and we will not achieve that while the ne''er do-wells on this forum persist in discussing the olfactory qualities of the Foreign Secretary''s ladygarden.

I don''t think you''ll be able to do that, "Mr. Chops".

Which brings me on to the subject of politics and tactics. I''m from a new generation. The old divides are past us. Let us not worry about having a left wing, or a right wing. True politics, more than ever, is fought in the centre. And so should our midfield be outflanked on the right, or the left, rest assured the centre will still hold with Smith centre-right, Lappin centre-left. And let me say this - when I think Paul Lambert has got it right, I will be the first to say so. I am not interested in opposition for opposition''s sake, but where I feel I can offer a credible alternative then I will speak out and I hope you will fall behind me as I lead us on to the promised land.

Thank you for your constructive and well thought out response, Mr. Yello. I put it to you that the Unions of today are rather like Delia Smith and Michael Wynn-Jones - they may hold a little power, but are a shadow of their previous might due largely to the influence of what we might call "proper businessmen". In Norwich City''s case, that''s Bowkett and McNally, and I see myself very much as the new Paul Lambert to Michael Foot''s Bryan Gunn. And let me just say it''s a myth that I somehow despise big business, or profits, or money. I quite like money. Money means you can buy things. Taxes are made of money. My father wrote text books and people bought them, and this helped pay for our education. So it would be wrong to portray me as some kind of union puppet, and the Murdoch press can do as they may but the working man will hear and know the truth.

Okay, so we lost today. I understand. I feel your pain. But let us not stand idly by and waste time in over-analysing the reasons, for the fact is this: despite losing today, we dominated the match and won each of the key battles. Now is the time for us to move this club forward, to unite and stand firmly behind what we agree in, and to energise our grass roots supporters so they spread the word of what we believe - passing football, flowing football, attacking football for the working men and women of Norwich City, a place I am proud to call my second home. Together, working as a team, we can achieve great things. We can reach the promised land, whether that be the Premier League or Downing Street - or, indeed, both. And I, your new leader, will promise you this - right here, right now - there are better days ahead for each and every person who belongs to this team I am proud to call my team. God bless you. God bless Paul Lambert. And God bless Norwich City Football Club. Thank you, and good night.
