[Archived] captain for the coming season?

[ABBEY]

Even if samba stays who would you all have has capt.? (perhaps a poll?)

Is the admiral nailed on? salgado? dunny if fit? bert?

Id go for robbo.

[Amo]

Surely Salgado would be a shoo-in?

Keith, surely! He's got the pointing down

Actually, I'd go for Robbo myself too. He seems settled in, calm and decisive.

Wouldn't be surprised if Kean gave the armband to Roberts.

For me it would have to be Robbo.

If that happens I will give up all hope for Rovers.

[RoverMad86]

Robbo. Although I do like a centre mid being captain, we don't have anyone to fill that role.

[chaddyrovers]

I would go for Samba if he stays. If he goes, then I would go for Robinson. maybe J Jones if he signs permanent

[Hughesy]

Robbo all the way!

Nelsen is ageing and doesnt play every game

Samba could be off

Dunn is past it

[Kelbo]

Well, heres my head on the block, I'd go for Salgado, just feel his spirit and attitude in each game he plays is spot on, well respected and a top lad.

[tcj_jones]

I've already accepted that Samba has gone.

I'd give it to Nelsen, with Robbo no.2.

[DeadlyDirk]

I'd give it to Salgado's hair.

[67splitscreen]

Dare Kean not give it to Salgado, Robbo for me, if only to ensure he sighs a new contract with a 16m clause of course.

[DeadlyDirk]

I'd give it to Salgado's hair.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Mickey Mouse..would suit the club ambiance at present!

[patrickvalery]

Joey Barton?

:-)

[Clitherover]

I agree with what people are saying about Robbo as captain, he fits the bill in every way for me.

[bennyboyt11]

Goal keepers as captains isn't a wise move when a word to the ref is needed, can't be having him running out the goal all the time!

[Tom]

Givet's beard, unless Dunny grows his Grizzly Adams back, if so that.

[beerwins]

This question is for me a very important one, I did'nt rate Samba as a captain at all, whenever there was a need for a captain to make himself known he was the last person to put an arm round players or speak to the ref or get the lads fired up.

The latter stages of the season he lead by example and it worked well but as for being vocal he just was'nt the man for me, I think Sam made him captain to keep him here and it worked until now.

I would love to be able to offer a suggestion but I dont know who the players respect or who will be playing every minute, for me it should be someone in the spine of the team, if JJ had signed maybe he would be my suggestion or as TCO mentioned if Givet is being lined up as our main central defender maybe he could do the job.

[Mafioso]

EHD ?

[Ferrit]

It's quite clearly got to be Keith.

[sparkspakespoke]

Yep. Hecommands respect and has the experience.

[tashor]

Hopefully Jones...............

[joey_big_nose]

Robinson, Salgado, Nelsen are all clearly captain quality. I prefer an outfield player but the likelihood is Nelsen and Salgado won't play all games. On that basis I would have Nelsen as club captain and Robinson as team captain.

If Jermaine Jones signs he would be a contender but maybe he is a bit hotheaded to lead the side.

[Stuart]

At this rate, it could be Phil Jones...!
