Basil's Letter From Mr Crozier

Basil applied for the post of England Manager as replacement for Kevin Keegan. He wrote explaining that although he was a dog he had a wide experience of football and hoped his scottish ancestory would not count against him. He also included a picture of himself.

The F.A. proved they are barking mad and quiet unable to tell the difference between dogs and people. They sent the letter shown below, for all we know all applicants were treated like dogs.

Basil has replied as follows and we await the response

"Dear FA,

Thank you very much for your polite letter of rejection. I am not sure if you read my letter of application carefuly however. I did point out that I am a dog, not a human - yet there seems to be a uniform tone to the letter you have sent me. Does this mean that you have treated other rejected applicants just like a dog? I look forward to your reply,

Yours Barkingly, Basil"
