    I think it'll be Caldwell, and should be, going by performance big Mick is probably our 3rd best centre half, maybe 4th if O'Dea got more games.

    With Mick injured Caldwell and Loovens will probably start at the back, and Caldwell will probably be captain in McManus' absence.

    If they play well they will keep playing together, and Caldwell will remain as captain.

    This is been done a few times recently, the general consensus appears to be give the armband to Caldwell.

    If McManus fails to get back in the team after injury he will still remain as club captain with Caldwell the only natural successor as team captain.

    I think this might be a bit tricky for Mowbray...

    McManus looks like being injured for the start of the season and it look like Jan is off this summer, so Caldwell would be the obvious choice to start the season as captain.

    The tricky bit comes when McManus if fit again. If he is given the armband back there may be a few fans questioning the manager. Then again if he sticks with Caldwell you can just imagine the headlines in the daily rags claiming McManus has been stripped of the captaincy and what not.

    At the end of the day its down the gaffer

    I would only give Caldwell it if he signs a new long term contract.

    Remember on here just over a year ago, Caldwell was the wipping boy lol :56:

    Perfect opportunity to switch it without ripping it off his arm.

    Mick won't be back to what Sept?

    New manager, new captain, new start.

    Scot Brown should be captain if it is to change.

    The Captiancy should defintely change to Caldwell in my opinion unless big Tony has other ideas.
