Sorry redhouse I meant to direct my reply to cayton,not to you.I agree with your comment.

Well in that case read my post again. Where have I said he's not vocal in the changing room. ? And how is an opinion an assumption
You said you though he was an excellent appointment and asked my why I though he wasn't.
If you wanted an argument over it why didn't you just says.. If you want my opinion (like you asked for) then read above

Personally I don't think the captain should be vocal in the dressing room that's the job of the manager and his staff . The captain is the leader on the pitch and that's when he should be vocal and lead by example .

Rathbone certainly leads by example but I don't recall him being vocal. Haha well except Vs stoke when he was bouncing about I front of the ref cos he got a decision wrong. Being a captain imo is more than just on the pitch. The dressing room need the leader. At training sometimes the young lads need guidance. I presume woody is still doing this role off the pitch.
