Surely, we need a steady captain? It seems like every other game somebody else is having a go.

Suprised Allen got the armband ahead of Grimes.

But no big deal, let's just hope we hit form today, we're due a big score.

I don't think in this day and age and "captain" really matters. It doesn't really mean anything anymore. Long gone are the days of proper captains. You're Roy Keanes, John Terry's Zidane's etc. Proper leaders. Look at England for example. Harry Kane as captain? Really? He's not a leader. Just an older player so given the armband. Pointless.

You don't need an armband to be a leader. Feel it's more figurative and a showing of seniority. What's better to see is players like Kitch and Grimes showing fight, bottle and heart, that we were lacking at the start of the season.

6 starting captains so far this season:

Sheaf
Allen
Lati
Bidwell
Kitching
Eccles

We had same number last season, plus sure others wore the armband at times when starting captain was subbed off (eg. O’Hare)

Robins always used to chop and change when Kelly/Fadz weren’t available. As an example, 7 captains in the 20/21 season:

Kelly
Fadz
Hyam
James
Godden
Rose
Dabo

I like the continental system where the players chose the captain and they act almost like a union rep linking the thoughts of the squad up to management

I suspect it will be Grimes next season.

I’m hoping the squad has improved over the summer to the point some of this seasons captains are not playing enough to be considered for captain.
