Not at all.
I was just making the point that of all the things fans have the right to question, Captaincy is the one they know the least about. It's fine to question the ability of a coach, or the performance of a player because you can clearly see with your own eyes when those things go wrong or right. The only aspect of Captaincy that fans see is the guy who leads the team out on matchday. Fans clearly don't know how good or rubbish a Captain is because the only people who can say that are the players and coaches around them.
The role of Captain is predominantly played-out away from matchdays. Someone who works with coaches to fine tune game plans, have a rapport with his team mates, be able to bond a team together aswell as point out flaws and encourage when required. There's so many aspects that for fans to question a Captains ability is like forming an opinion on a movie you've never seen.
Love him or hate him, 163 consecutive appearances should make Stuart Littler a Salford legend in anyone's book
