Team Captain
What does that say then?
That most on this forum want their captain in the image of roo without respecting what the players, coaches and club have seen in our captain.
In a nutshell for u.

No its more that alot of people have had questions about his captaincy for a long time.That most on this forum want their captain in the image of roo without respecting what the players, coaches and club have seen in our captain.

Another post which assumes bf posters have more idea than the club we support of whom are closer to the actual facts.
Danger is being groomed for the role, and is a worthy if not the best choice. This however is no reason to give VB the shellacking he receives on here.
If we think Danger's time is now, great, surely that doesn't mean we have to denigrate VB.
Vb is a great bloke and an excellent off field leader by all accounts. This does not mean that those of us who value on field leadership more highly can't call for Danger to be captain. If being behind danger is denigration, I think I need to throw out my dictionary.
No doubt but not all criticism is denigration. I think we probably agree on this one.It isn't, of course, but a lot of what is said about VB on here definitely falls into that category.
Incorrect. But hey, change the goalposts all you like. Number of wins never came into the equation.
VB got votes in 10 games, 3 were losses.
We averaged votes for 13 players in losses, and 19 in wins.

There are some who do.No one appears to be arguing that it is?

The one moment that really irks me is danger winning a contest (like he does) then running around someone (like he does) about to be confronted by another player so he goes for the one-two with VB and gets around the player to receive the handball putting him with 50-70m clear space in front of him... Guess what
VB handballs it to his feet he fumbles ball goes OOB..
Goodwork Ol' Capitain
Fair comment ........The players have a huge say in who is captain .....and that needs to be respected by us supporters rather than our own image of what a captain should look likeThat most on this forum want their captain in the image of roo without respecting what the players, coaches and club have seen in our captain.
In a nutshell for u.
VB isn't an automatic selection next year.
Grigg and Crouch have rocketed past him, Kerridge wasn't far away, and Lyons will probably go past him this year.
If I had a dollar for every time Bigfooty declared vB is no longer best 22, and player x has gone past him...
Still, no doubt Crouch will go past him. Crouch is going to push for being the best player we've ever had. Astoundingly good rookie season. I reckon he's likely to be captain one day.
One of the problems I have with VB as captain is thatthe spud, sorry I meantthe player is not a guaranteed starter in our 22.
This must be the 30th time you've posted this, complete with unnecessary denigration.One of the problems I have with VB as captain is thatthe spud, sorry I meantthe player is not a guaranteed starter in our 22.
That says something especially when you compare him to players who were captains of clubs in their premiership year that were guaranteed starters in their 22.

You were wrong the first time you posted it and you're still wrong on the 30th. Truth does not magically attach itself to a manifestly false statement through sheer repetition.

Why, because he called someone a spud?
You've called players far worse.
