Captain

[Da Man Clay]

Who would you select as the captain? Dodd or Oatway? I would much prefer Dodd as he is a good leader on the pitch and seems to bring something more to the team than Oatway. On the other side Oatway has been a fantastic club servant.

Discuss.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Oatway.

Dont see how it is fair to appoint a player who has only played one league game as captain.

When Oatway isnt playing id make Butters captain.

 

[Scarface]

Charlie brings so much more to the team than just his experience on the pitch. He is also the main 'character' in the dressing room and plays a big part in the great team spirit the squad has.

 

[THE GUNT]

Oatway Shouldn't be first choice let alone el capitano!

 

[Pigsy]

I see Oatway as having a role like Rodgers did when he was injured. Non-playing Club Captain

 

[Da Man Clay]

I agree!! I think nicholas is a much better choice with dodd/butts as captain.

 

[Easy 10]

Butters would get my vote.

 

[Hydro Driven]

Once Dodd settles-in he should be captin!

 

[3gulls]

Oatway should not even be playing!

 

[enigma]

Oatway with Butters as vice

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

I think Butters

 

[Pavilionaire]

Our best central midfield pairing is Carpenter and Hammond. So where does that leave Oatway as a starter?

Your captain must be an automatic first choice as well as a leader. You might get away with the Rogers situation in the lower leagues but not in the Championship.

I'd go with Dodd - he's going to play in every game provided he stays fit, he's got the experience, he's positive and I'm sure the players will look up to someone like him.

Ok, so he's just arrived - so what?

 

[Beeercan]

would say chippy, should have been virgs last season

 

[bathseagull]

Butters would get my vote.

ditto.
i think making oatway captain was an error - it means he's always going to start when i would prefer to see chippy and hammond in the middle.
always think captain should be a centre half anyway - can see the game much better.

I hope LI doesn't see this thread. There'll be tears before bedtime, mark my words.

 

[Highfields Seagull]

To be fair to Oatway, he played well on Saturday and justified his selection.

Hardly, Charlie is pissing this poll. A lot of people have changed their minds about him, it's called reality bites.

What game did you watch?

 

[Basil Fawlty]

Jason Dodd should be captain, i think Oatway was quite slow against Derby from time to time, sometimes are centre midfield wasnt there.

 

[Gully]

We played well on Saturday and didn't lose, surely some of that is down to Oatway being captain, I am sure the players respect him and he has been at the club for years. Agree that Guy should be captain in his absence, as for Dodd, don't disagree with his credentials but think that he should earn his right to lead the team out and certainly not consider it a divine right because he has played at the top level.
