Macca new captain

Both. But it's the timing of the public announcement that makes it a cyncial ploy to sell season tickets and needlessly puts ML in a potentially awkward position.

Can't agree. ML is contracted to Notts County. While he is at Notts County he gives his all and we are perfectly entitled to extract value from him as per his contract. He did not have to accept the captaincy and if he was offered it and declined it then it would have not been mentioned by the club. ML controlled the whole situation. We have been royally trampled on by players many many times most recent example being Bajrami who the club rehabilitated at our cost and offered a new contract and off he went to Burton. ML has not been needlessly been put in any position he did not want to be put in and if the club can get a few more season tickets its called marketing and happens 24/7/365 everywhere. People choose how to spend their money and clubs retailers banks whatever compete for it. You lack a basic understanding of market forces and economics.
