    the heading says it all. They have made a joke of the captaincy this season. A captain and in some cases a club captain that’s the vice. Never in the years I have I watched a captain armband get passed around like it means nothing. The disrespect to the armband is the last straw for me. Youds wetherall jones Darby captains to be proud of. This isn’t a team it’s a group of misfits who don’t deserve the shirt. Under 18s 3 unbeaten leg them play next week see passion and what it means to wear the shirt.

    100% agree, play the youngsters. They might also lose but I bet they'll show more fight doing it then the pathetic excuse of a squad that call themselves professionals footballers. If he continues to play first teamers and they end up picking up some points in the last 3 games, it will just feel like another kick in the teeth from them. I just want them to go away and go away now.

    Agreed -- the only alternative on the pitch today would have been O'Brien. Another loanee.

    Just demonstrates we have no leaders in the team only losers.

    Caddis one our most consistent players and he’s 95!!!

    Record breakers for the wrong reason.

    here we go, bloody hell.. remember when that fella we signed from leeds became one of the best captains we ever had and a fantastic ambassador for the club and for football in general. i wish we'd never given the captaincy to wetherall, all downhill since then - all the fault of giving a bit of fabric to a chap who played for leeds.

    Don't have a problem with this, as it singles the players are bottom rung and hopefully soon relocated.

    If I was a fully contracted senior player and saw a young loanee with a handful of appearances made captain I'd be thoroughly ashamed of myself and question whether I actually have anything to offer the club.

    See, that's the difference between you and them monkey. You have integrity, I don't think they do.

    Or question a manager who thinks it is ok to make a young loanee the captain thus reducing the morale of the senior players you are relying on to save the club,

    Who gives a flying f**k about the morale of these players? The majority haven't cared about anything but themselves for the majority of the season so the only mistake was thinking they had the bollocks to change.

    I've always had integrity and honesty throughout my Sunday league career. My problem was a dire lack of ability!

    How do you know it was the manager's decision? Maybe none of the senior players wanted it and Paudie was the only one to step up when Caddis came off?

    I wouldn't be in the least surprised if we don't sign young Paudie O'Connor in the closed season either on loan again if Leeds wont sell, the way Bowyer talks about him if he seems to hold him in high regards wouldn't surprise me in the least to see him made captain.

    Out of interest, how has he played since getting back in? I hear he was pretty good in his first game back in, what about the ones following?

    Would love to see him back next season on loan, alongside an Andrew Davies type stopper

    The club is down, this group of players are utterly dreadful. If this encourages some of them on a contract next season to further their career (sic) elsewhere, then good! These Senior Players are not up to saving anything.

    He’s only 31. Be one of youngest next season. League two is like a retirement league
