Just wondering if any fans think it is causing divisions in the dressing room. Loft, Kedwell, Barrett or ...?
Do Gills still have a club captain and team captain?

Might be a bit of sour grapes but it's important they work as a team and they need to put " stuff" like this out of their minds and concentrate on the job in hand. It may well be that a natural "captain" will emerge in the not too distant future. Let's hope that is the case.

Could be that Taylor has already made his mind up.It could be Barrett still being there or that lift that a new skipper can give a team.Is the reason for the delay.I doubt it is being put on hold because Taylor can't make his mind up.He knows Kedwell he seems the only other option other than Loft so there is very little reason to be undecided.

I have no doubt that PT has made up his mind. We shall all know the answer to this question shortly. The captain will still have to prove his worth or I can see PT making changes in that direction. Going forward there will be competion for places and this will include the captain. Let's hope we don't get too many injuries early on in the season something that we have seen in the past which always reduces the options.

I suspect Loft will be the one who officially gets the armband... Barrett I think will be disappointed, but professional and intelligent enough to realise he won't necessarily be first choice and won't cause problems. And Kedwell was never made our captain at any point so has no right to sulk if he isn't given it.

Loft is the stand out player and should get the armband and lead by example. Keds would be my vice captain in view of his standing within the club and what I have read his understanding and rapport with all the players, especially the young players.

I don't think Barrett is the type to sulk. Pretty sure it'll be Loft. I know allen signed Barrett as his skipper and have the feeling that Taylor has done the same with Loft

With Barrett potentially on his way it wouldn't seem appropriate to make him captain.

its now Friday afternoon and still gills fans do not know who the captain is......if they want our support you would think that the powers that be would kindly let us know who will be leading us on the field.....

I would guess that Loft will get the armband at MK dons but it is a real big task with so many young players.PT may well hedge his bets in the first few games waiting to see if Loft can do perhaps one of the most difficult captains job ever at this club.It is only right that PT does this before any permanent announcement is made.If Loft or anyone else gets it it has to be for keeps.Therefor they have to be the right man for the job.This appointment is far bigger job than the one he had at Vale and he seems level headed enough to know that only too well.

I agree with statothebblue I think it will be loft. In fact I will be really surprised if it's anyone else....

I think it should be an outfield player, and the only one who is likely to be a regular starter is Loft.

I think that the powers that be are fairly sure of our support, whether we know who the captain is or not.
