Rhyse Martin new Captain for me

Has anyone held the title of club captain for a shorter period of time than Trent Merrin?

Unlikely to be Sutcliffe given he doesn’t even have a squad number in the first 13. Not that I thought he had a chance anyway.

I would agree with Martin.
Ward who knows how many games he’ll play.
Sutty, whoever suggested him has clearly never met the lad ( though very useful bench player, and team member.)
Prior- outside bet, but not a bad shout.
Gale , allow him to concentrate on playing well and still in recovery phase. Will need 3 months to get back to the player he was .

Gale would seem the most sensible option for me. Ideally Ward would be made captain but we all know the issues there.

Seen very little to suggest any of the others are captain material.

Maybe they'll try several as captain in first few games ?

Forgot about Martin but yes that is a good shout with Gale as VC.

Can i ask what people have seen in Martin to make him captain??? I thought he played ok for us, no more than that really, and his goalkicking is major upgrade on what we had but i cant say ive seen much in terms of leadership or motivation from him.
