Peace out.
Luckily we will go up on Tuesday because it was just such a stupid thing to do. He has been doing so well this season aswell and probably the best centre half in the league.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

I really cannot believe some of the reactions on here. Yes he was a fool for what he did, but he has been absolute class this season.
Its as if some of you have been desperate for this to happen.
And God help Ankegren when he has a mare as the knives will also be out!
Fickle! Fickle! Fickle!

Who - lets face it - for all his faults wasn't a bad captain either....

Swindon last year. Unfortunately he has some track of blowing his fuse at crucial moments.

If they've been waiting for it to happen how are they fickle?
He is a class player but this seems an almost exact repeat of his sending off against Rochdale so maybe he needs to wise up a bit?
Just to say, I'm still not 100% sure about Ankregren, I'd be worried about him in the Championship.

Yep.
Way OTT reaction, yes it was silly and unnecessary but it seems a bit like people have almost been waiting for him to muck up so they can give him some stick.

He got sent off bringing down someone who was through on goal didn't he? - hardly the same. He helped them get to the playoff final by doing that.

Are you on the Meths or summut?! Elphick isn't "every bit as good" as Greer ffs. If he was, he'd be club captain & first choice centre half (with AE-A). Fact.
Plenty of others capable of being Captain and just because he's played well all season doesn't give him the right. Frankly all the team have played wel, inc Elphick and Dunk when called upon, it's why we are where we are. How do we feel when he gets sent off 2 minutes from the start vs 2 minutes from the end?

so 1 Red with Swindon (last season) and now 2 with us this season, is this a 4 match ban?
Captain and capable player are two different things and of course Elphick is no Captain. If Greer has the edge on ability so be it but that temperament can be very costly and needs to be factored in ... that's all

Gus clearly does not agree otherwise he would not have handed Greer the arm band right at the beginning of the season would he

Just because he's played well all season, as our captain, leading us towards our best season for donkeys years as our captain, chosen by Gus, enjoying unprecedented success. Yeah must be unworthy skipper to take us forward.
11 players in a team ... just cos he's Captain in our best season for yonks doesn't mean he's our best player and this sort of thing is excusable .... what would you say if he was Huddersfield's captain?
Roy Keane never got sent off did he? Or Patrick Vieira? Or Nemanja Vidic?
He's a passionate player and a strong leader. Today he was a tit but lets not overreact and forget what a superb season he's had. Just means that Calderon will skipper the side when we win promotion... An honour I think he will treasure.
Greers punishment is that he will not be able to lift the League One trophy, just like Keane didn't get to lift the European Cup. Doesn't make them bad players.
