McClaren will probably sit on the bench wearing the armband to show who's in charge.

Didn't catch anything on your recent fishing expedition, then? :D

As for the vote, I agree that putting the armband on Steve's sleeve could well ratchet up his performances, but I think a lot of that stuff is tactical and nothing to do with his devotion to the cause.

I've voted Gerrard in here (well, I have to really, don't I? ;) ) but I wouldn't object if it was given to Terry. They are the only two candidates for it in my eyes, and I think each have their own skills and style to bring to the job. Either one'd do me.

sky sports rather typically over-indulged on their coverage of this with interviews with comments from his old school coach, some ex-england internationals who happened to be playing golf and ex-reserve teammates
