An outfield captain because Marshall just doesn't work.

I agree.

We really need a nasty, snarling, roll your sleeves up leader who can lift the team on the pitch and kick a few arses when needed (which is quite often with some of them).

Peltier or Gunnar would be my choices.

There should be ELEVEN Captains out there and to blame any result on Marshall being Captain is clutching at straws IMHO ;)

I listened to him on Tuesday night (you can do that at the CCS theses days :cry: ) and he couldn't have been clearer in his instructions to those in front of him :thumbup:

But I don't a goalkeeper can have much influence as an outfield player would.

I never like Peltier but he is a bit of a tank.

And better than brayford ever was for us.

My point is that a Captain in football isn't as influential as one in, say, rugby or cricket ;)

It's up to the players to play to their strengths and the manger's 'system' (like it or loathe it) and one guy on the pitch screaming at the other ten when the manager/coach can do it ably from the side is a little outdated in football :thumbup:
