Seems a no brainer to me. It appears the players want Kirmond and if that's the case so be it.

Gotta be Finn for me if it's not Kirmond. Think Miller could be groomed for the role in a couple of years though.

I'd want danny to continue as captain as long as he plays for wakey
He's being a great servant to our club

I feel ashurst is a definate future captain for us

Also worth adding
I saddens me that danny feels that way about the captaincy
He still clearly has loads to offer his club, next year could be even bigger than last danny lad!

I actually think that this shows just what a good captain and leader he is to the club. I suspect he knows that he is less likely to play as much next year and therefore feels it should go to someone who will be in, week in, week out for 80 mins.
I would personally leave him as club captain and have a couple of the other guys that have been suggested as deputies for when he is not on the field.
Finny and Grix have the experience but I also agree that Ashurst looks and plays like the role-model type captain. He doesn't look like the type to feel pressured by it.
For me, Kirmo remains captain with a leadership team below him of Finn, Grix and Ashurst.

I agree Danny has put his body on the line and spilt more blood on his shirt season after season. When we were at rock bottom a number of clubs wanted Danny but his decision was to stay. It would be worthy to see him lead the team on to what look like better times ahead.

As we only watch the game from afar and can't really say who is organising things, reassuring players, firing them up and settling them down as needed we really have no idea!!! We might see a player having a lot to say but we don't know if their contribution is valuable or if any of the the others is listening.

What Wakefield need is a captain that can put ideas over to the referee. He will not have the luxuries that the likes of Wilkin or McGuire or O'Loughlin get, but a good talker will help get some of those 50:50 decisions that elude us.
