Stuart Holden - when fit - is the easy and obvious choice.

He's an inspiration, or should be, to our shower of shite.

So .... NRC it is then !!

Anyway, anyone calling Muamba shit doesn't know their arse from their elbow. Not great technically might be being kind, but some folk seem to think that's all football is, hence claims of Mark Davies being our best 'footballer' (it means something else in inverted commas, apparently). As for leader, general impression I get of him is way too quiet, nice and prone to dips in self-confidence, though that might all be a cunning act. He was proper shy when I met him though.
I keep forgetting you are always right Pru :doh: Over the past few years at the reebok or at the away matches all i've heard is he's fcuking wank him about giving the ball away to the opposition after just winning it runs with the ball with his fcuking head down, clumsy basterd (muamba) you can only say what you see Pru. Take campo for example holding midfielder wins the ball, passing world class never gave the ball away, always available for the next ball. People need to look at videos from that time to understand what quality we had, people have just got used to seeing shit for too long now its impaired there judgement. Next it will be Muamba is a better footballer than M. Davies :lmfao: hey Pru? Ask the Birmingham fans what they thought of Muamba :lol:
Could you be more pig-headed? You've gotten used to players like Campo, or you've been watching too much of City or those big club bastards, cos you've forgotten what an average Premier League player looks like. Muamba is an average Premier League player, if not slightly better than average. The marked difference between how solid we look when he's on the pitch and how weak we look when he's off it attest to that. You bang on about what the Brum fans thought (who the f*ck cares? Where are they?) or what the fans around you think at matches - what's wrong, incapable of forming your own judgement?
Have a look at what i've put in previous posts, which i put my own opinion about muamba. Just stating the majority opinion of fans at games.

I know several - all of whom were absolutely gutted to lose Muamba.

How many have you asked?

Probably had a look at a forum full of 14 year olds who didn't like his lack of skillzzzz

Over a hundred over the past few years, i've got some mates down there so when i go to the away matches against birmingham i meet up with them all. Been in loads of pubs and got into conversation's with birmingham fans a few have said he was ok always gave 100% but his passing always let him down, but the majority said that he was useless and couldn't believe it when we payed them 5.75m for him.

Sam Ricketts would be an obvious choice, he can play all along the back and reads the game very well. Seems to have plenty to say on the pitch anyway and is always pointing and shouting to encourage everyone.. other than him i would say toss a coin.

None of them inspire me as a captain. I suppose NRC is the closest. Wheater might be ok, but he looks like missing half the season with his disciplinary...
