[Archived] Captain Idol

[greggyk]

Now Barry Ferguson looks set to leave Rovers.How would you chose for Rovers captain, and why?

Garry Flitcroft?

Lucas Neill?

Andy Todd?

Brad Friedel?

David Thompson?

Brett Emerton?

Paul Dickov?

or anyone else?

I would chose Andy Todd. He puts in 100% effort in every game he plays and takes no s*** from anyone. He's also not afraid to put his head in where some footballers would'nt put there foot.

Toddy for Captain.

[brfcshabba]

Before anyone says it I vote for Grooby!!

[T4E]

Todd, Thompson or Savage.

[philipl]

Savage or Mokoena or Nelsen- all have experience as international captains.

[trueblue]

Before anyone says it I vote for Grooby!!

But he looks crap in shorts !!

[Eddie]

Got to be Todd or Friedel for me, perhaps Thompson if he can establish himself in the team. The other two are regulars and committed and seem to have the strength and potential leadership qualities that would be required, plus they arent going to up and quit on us.

Edit: Has a topic ever had more hits within a single minute?

I think the smart money is on Andy Todd.

Unless Sparky decides it has to be Sav, but I doubt it.

[trueblue]

Todd for me at the moment... but wouldn't rule Savage out of the running once he's signed

[mhead]

That mascot that was taller than midget previous Captain.

Makes Sherwood,Hendry,Shearer,Parkes,Clayton seem like Gods and Sir Bob Crompton the legend he will always remain.

Barrie Ferguson a stain and a pin-head in our glorious 130 years history.

[Ossydave]

Andy Todd without a shadow of a doubt.

[Ste B]

Savage ?

[Alan75]

We allready have a captain.

KAYOS

[Kiwiwannabe]

Savage ?

Bit wary of making a new signing central midfielder club captain, especially after what's happened with the last one!!

Todd gets my vote for the time being.

[Martyn]

I can't see Savage having the respect of the players straight away so I wouldn't pick him.

For me it's a toss up between Todd and Dickov.

[Rover IN Bury]

Todd, Todd he’s our man if he can’t do it, Savage could?

[S15]

MGP.

[Martin]

Neill or Todd both great players and are very vocal. Freidel must be in with a shout also.

[AndyC]

Neill or Todd both great players and are very vocal. Freidel must be in with a shout also.

neil? interesting choice. I've neve really seen him as being vocal.

thompson seems to have the respect of the players - could also spur him onto new heights

[modes98]

I can see it being toddy, but wouldn't mind it being thommo

[USRoverME]

What about Emerton?

Go with a young guy who is an up and coming star, make a statement that the team is ready to move forward! He's a regular in the team at all times. You are showing commitment to a guy who could be considered one of our most valuable assets...

That being said, I'd give it to Todd or Friedel, but I think Emo would be worht a thought

[T4E]

What about Emerton?

More! More!

[S15]

What about Emerton?

Exactly.

What about him?

[S15]

What about Emerton?

More! More!

It'd be a laugh.

[American]

I think Todd or Savage. Thommo isn't healthy enough to play often enough. At this point he isn't guaranteed to start. Brad would be great, but you want it to be an outfield player.

[Jan]

Wonder who you'd think I'd be rooting for.

TODDY!!!!

On so many levels that's the best choice!
