Lunny1968 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Take the captaincy off him and let him concentrate on his own game. Make Dunkley captain. He is an absolute warrior and what you want in a captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JemmoJemoJemmo Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 People are totally deluded if they think changing the captain makes much difference. If you are a leader on the pitch you organise, encourage, shout at people etc. You don’t stand there thinking “I better not say anything because I’m not captain”. It’s just utter rounduns 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshy Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I’ve often looked at Bannan when we’ve gone a goal down. He’s either giving someone a gob full or simply walking back head down. You hardly ever see him trying to galvanise by either clapping or encouraging his team mates. A good leader doesn’t always need to shout. There are ways of encouraging people without that. He isn’t a leader in my book. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteOwl91 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Think people are assuming taking captaincy off Bannan will improve things, giving it to say Dunkley... Dunkley is still in that dressing room right now, playing and able to air his views and be a leader in the dressing room. It's far far deeper than this.

Mosborough-owl Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 10 hours ago, We are all Wednesday said: Lees was always a good player for us tbf! He was except from a couple of months where he looked like bambi on ice, and give away a few goals down to his individual mistakes. on the whole tho, he was a decent no nonsense CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatter Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Seems pretty clear that Bannan is not suited to the physicality of League 1and looks a poorer player at this level than the one above. Conversely Dunkley looks well suited to League 1 and looks a better player at this level. Rest Bannan for a couple of games and give the captaincy to Dunkley, see how it works out. Does Mr Niceguy Moore have the balls to do it? I very much doubt it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you have access to the training ground, changing room and have great hearing to be able to make out what he's saying on the pitch, I'm not sure how you'd know?! Galvanise by clapping? Is that like Jordan Rhodes encouraging by a cheeky thumbs up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that we don’t really know what goes on behind the scenes however there have been many times where Bannan has berated other players with unwarranted outbursts. For me he’s never really shown that he has the right attributes to be club captain. I echo many on here that Palmer or Dunkley should have been made captain after Lees. Both of them have strong professional attitudes and I imagine are seen by many as natural positive role models for younger players to look up to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

109Waddle Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Dunkley’s been in a defence that has switched off all season and conceded sloppy goals time and time again. Yeah, he puts his head on the ball and puts a tackle in but not sure he’s the answer if we were to swap captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devonstrix Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 On Tuesday night, second half Bannan hit a poor through ball which was meant for Kamberi. Easily intercepted by a Plymouth defender and Bannan spent the next minute having a go at Kamberi. Don’t know whether it was for poor movement off the ball or what. Maybe Kamberi had said something about the quality of the pass. Whatever, Bannan made a mistake and balled him out for it at length. Not great leadership, chuntering away whilst Plymouth launched another attack. He doesn’t look Captain material to me and maybe the pressure gets to him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall he was pretty consistent, but I’m sure he went thou a sticky patch where he made a few clangers. I’m sure one was a game we got spanked by derby at home by dwelling on the ball.
