A clipping of “Captian Gary’s Chat” from the “Red All Over” fanzine, reading “I am Gary Brabin who recently was given the great honour to be Captain of Doncaster Rovers. I can't really explain the feeling of leading the team out. There is more to being Captain than just wearing an arm band. I would just like to thank the Boss Sammy Chung and Ken Richardson for standing by me and giving me this great honour. As fans will know I have got bags of ambition and would love to be the Captain when Rovers get promotion this season. Although I am Liverpool born and "bread" I now class myself as a Donny Lad. My biggest disappointment was our exit from the FA Cup at the hands of Mansfield Town, but hopefully this can be put right by winning promotion for the supporters who l'd like to think I've got close to during my time at the Club. LOTS OF LOVE AND SEXY KISSES. GARY BRABIN”

Kendall replied: I’ve spent years chairing Feeding Leicester, the programme to end hunger in my city and I know that I can look my constituents in the eye and say to them, I know that getting more people into better paid jobs is the key to their future success, I know dealing with their mental health problems which we know are so prevalent is so essential. We, the Labour party, believe that if you can work, we will give you the help to get back on your feet, because that is the long-term route to tackling poverty, tackling inequality which is what this Labour party is all about.
