Do we think Charles Clarke is realistic?

Of course Charles Clarke is not a candidate, he would be a titular head at best.

Paul Littlewood. (I still Claire is a better idea, oh well..)

What about Paul? Top player with business experience

James - a titular President was exactly what council indicated in a straw poll that it was looking for.

Dear All

A younger fitter Ernie Lazenby would have been the man to cut through this chaff

Peter Sowrey and OMOV would be a terrific start but the current unwieldy unfair voting method wont let him in. I cant see the majority of the OMOV petitioners breaking out of their apathy and taking interest in the future of the ECF, to assist him.

For me that only leaves Chris Majer
