Hindsight is a great thing, but you change from a position of strength. There has always been a soft underbelly in this squad when the going gets tough. And by tough, I mean winning Finals, semi finals, bottling title races in February. Namely Tavernier, Goldson, Arfield, Davis, Kent, Morelos, Barasic, Jack to name a few have all been part of the major fuck ups and let downs of the last 5 years. I've always thought if we had a last day of season to win league I'd really not fancy us. As it happens we haven't realistically had a chance any time past the split in the ones we lost anyway, which is fucking disgraceful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes balls to take pressure pens and he always trys tbf just we need a change. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BelfastWillie 1,114 Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 No. Not worth it. At times, Tav has left a lot to be desired, but you could say the same for all his teammates. Not worth the hassle giving it for example to Goldson, for the friction it might cause against the benefits it might reap, which I don't think would be any.

I do understand the frustration though, I just don't think there's a benefit in changing unless we're selling him. Keeping him and naming someone else captain is a recipe for disaster. There is no Barry Ferguson type player/personality to hand it over to. MacBoyd 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isnt a knee jerk reaction to yesterday , we have won very little unter Tav and things need to change. Who do you think should be our Captain?

I think Bassey had a massive part to play in the fight and drive during the run in Europe last year and we replaced him with Davies. Too many have been here too long and lost too many times to that lot and dropped points against the rest of the teams in the league. Tavs numbers would be hard to replace but I feel we are at that point where difficult decisions need to be made for the good of the squad and club going forward Bassed almost single handely dragged us to a europa league final.

Ive called borna shitebag out again on here for upto 2 years now. Tav is a wigan athletic right back, whos overstayed his welcome as captain. The clubs outgrown him now and dilly dally goldson.
