      Next Captain?
      Mar 20, 2025 09:04:02 pm
      Bit of a hypothetical but If Mo, Virg and Trent go at the end of the season who's folks pick for the captaincy in 25/26 and beyond?

      Nominations would be Robertson, Szob, and Alli I'd guess. With only the captain being able to speak to the ref I personally wouldn't choose a GK myself.

      Think it would be Robbo but it would be short term that. Szob would be the longer term choice.

      Leadership group would all of a sudden be looking light really.

      If Virg goes it should be Trent. Thats his next step and the next step to creating a real legacy here. Thats his/was his dream apparently.

      If trent walks out and the other 2 are pushed out ... Robbo or Ali for me. But thats 3 huge players leaving the club ... for nothing.

      I believe we already have a captaincy hierarchy of 5 or so players, so it would likely just go to the next in line. Maybe that was under Jürgen, though.

      Has to be Robbo. I'm not sure what people are basing their picks on, can't really see Dom as captain material at the current moment. Not that he couldn't grow into it. Honestly, would probably have Cody before Dom or Mac.

      Guess because Dom is captain of his country - so maybe he is Captain material

      The prob with Robbo is I don’t think he will be starting every week

      Gary Mac would be a good choice

      Ali for me.

      I'd like to see him get the vice captaincy next season regardless (provided Virg stays).

      Not sure why you have to shoot down peoples opinions like that. Dom is an international captain so can understand why people are suggesting him.

      Robertson is on his way out, had a poor season and we will likely bring in a LB who will take over a lot of his game time. He’s not a long term solution at all, barely even a solution for next season if Virgil leaves.

      Perish the thought all three leave but if they do, I'd give it Ali on merit/experience. Robbo could deputise. Longer term, one of the middies as they are sure to be our battle hardened warriors for years to come -- Dom or Macca probably.

      Macca for me should be in the picture at least Vice Captain.  If Virg and Taa left.

      I don't think keepers make good captains on the field due to their position. Robbo is on the wane. I think szob or Mac. I prefer someone who's very vocal on the pitch. Probably Szob.

      Szloboslai, he’s captain of Hungary, Konate as Vice,

       silly Q cos Virgil will STILL be Skip he’s going no f***in where, Trent is gambling with his potential legacy if he goes to Royal Madrid, but could Still stay, it’s down to his personal choice, stay and realise his dream or leave and tickle Bellingham’s bollocks, Mo I believe Will sign a two year extension with a possible further 1 year without a numerical gain, pie in the f***in sky cos F**k knows what will happen, we live in hope!!

      Personally I don't like keepers being captain. They are too far from the action.

      Just adding my opinion, is that not allowed anymore? Aren’t you doing the same with my choice of Robbo?

      Guess it was you saying you don’t see him as Captain material when he is his countries captain
