    Tell that to those in the Pavis and Kop stands, and see what they think of Maynard...

    Macca is the most deserving player of the captain's armband. It's that simple. It was widely discussed last season that KC wasn't the ideal candidate and that a change would be good. When positive change comes, some people still look for a reason to make it negative. Unbelievable.
    Plenty of people look to inspiring new signings or other positive news about the season ahead before buying STs.
    Nobody who has criticised my comment has yet explained the timing of the announcement.

    Ok let me try. Macca gets offered the captains role which will include a pay rise (though not a life changing one). He sits in the office with his boss and they talk about the endless possibilities about what may or may not happen in the future and Macca (an extremely genuine and honorable guy it appears) verbally commits (he’s already formally committed with the new contract) to stay with the club for the next season as he’s extremely happy and wants to continue to progress with Notts. They spit and shake hands on it. “Shall we announce it now” they suggest, “yes why not our fans old and new would love to hear this”. So they do and everyone’s happy (except some on here of course). Next week Real Madrid come in for Macca offer him the Captains role, double Jude Bellinghams salary, a five year contract and a small island close to Ibiza. Notts are offered a world record transfer fee - we would have to turn it down because of the backlash we’d receive from the previous cynical attempt to sell more season tickets. FFS take it as a positive.

    You’re getting very boring. I think we all know your opinion now.

    It had to be announced at some point.
    It could have been last week, it could have been next.
    I know we get let down sometimes but just occasionally accept something at face value.
    It can do you the world of good.
