Note to the FA

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 I would just like to say, as an opening gambit
Cappelo has gone but hands off Paul Lambert
You definitely need to recruit an ENGLISH man
That is the view held by every fan

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Norwich City are now a success
The reason is clear, no need to guess
It’s the team that Paul built
And he always wears a kilt

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 He’s not from England, och aye the noo
Don’t ignore his tartan roots, whatever you do
He’s a breed more rare than Loch Ness
Without Lambert, we’d be in a right old mess

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 He’s made from haggis, tatties and neeps
He plays the bagpipes in his sleep
His pre-match choice is a bowl of porridge
He’s the best around and he manages NORWICH!

Notes

With great apologies to all Scottish readers for the terrible stereotypes. Just wanted to point out that Paul Lambert is Scottish and therefore totally unsuitable for the England managers job.

Of course, if Harry gets it, Tottenham are likely to require a foreign manager, in which case Lambert is definitely British.
