Just checked
Captaincy
Vernon 1961/65
Labone1965 onwards.

Probably one of the above, although according to this it could also have been Alex Parker?

Think Alan was just taking over the duty from Brian Labone, never a great captain though Bally, a bit too hotheaded, great player though, loved him to bits and came home from school and cried, when we foolishly sold him to Arsenal.

Hated Arsenal for years after that..
Apart from a certain Charlie George goal, whose celebration I couldn't half wait to do in front of my red mates next time we played football..

Some confusion between 'club captains' and individual 'team captains' maybe?
