Captain Sensible

Don't think i would want him mate would make a great number 2 though.
Problem martinez has is his staff he brought from wigan just go along with everything he says.

And lost the medical staff who knew how to teach the players how to tie their bootlaces with pulling a hamstring.

McCarthy and Stone build flats for the old folk, so should be good at marshalling all the geriatrics in our team. Both would make a good captain and vice captain.

Oi! Me and the wife on the list for a new McCarthy & Stone apartment and we're only 62!

I think it goes deeper than Jags. For the last 10 years we've been a team who have been too soft. We don't crowd the ref when we get terrible decisions against us, none of our players go down and waste time when we're winning. You only have to look at players like Gibson who have come from a club with a winning mentality and are constantly in the referees ear. Anyway McCarthy for me without question.

Yep,said it for years,we must be a referee's dream,"easy" Everton,some of the things these Officials have got away with not just under the current regime without any "earache" from our players has been incredible,players getting contact in the box and staying on their feet,how often at Goodison can you ever say we've had a "homer"?(steady at the back)

Looks for a 'get out of the sh*t' comment, but fails miserably.

No, you're all right, I thought it was a clever/witty post. Maybe we ought to get Steve Stone on the coaching staff too, just to be on the save side.

I'm not comfortable with criticism of Jags as a player (he's been one of the top Everton players of the modern era) but agree he needs replacing as Captain.
McCarthy is the only one who looks likely to start influencing decisions from the ref and encouraging the rest of the side to play at 100%

I'm not overly concerned about Jags being captain. He's a brilliant player, a model pro and leads by example. I really don't think having McCarthy or whoever as captain will make a difference to our points tally. If anything there's a chance it'd create some dressing room disharmony and Jags would be off. I'll be honest, I wouldn't relish Martinez being required to go shopping for a couple of centre halves this summer.
