Hi.
Just wondering how you think Nigel did yesterday. I was not happy with him leaving the villa. Hope he can settle well and do a good job for you.
Cheers

Sergeant Nigel is the obvious candidate for next captain. Absolute warrior and a leader on the pitch. I'd follow him into battle.

For me, Sergeant Nigel was motm on Saturday, no nonsense. He's definately a leader, quote from his freeview interview on the website

' Fantastic debut. It's gonna take a while still to settle in and to get into the team formation and how the team play and everything... and knowing MY players slightly better'

He's already in charge.

Wow, imagine the odds! 2 completely different people show up who refer to someone as Captain Nigel!

They're right though.

We were watching the match in the Pub, and Sergeant seemed the most appropriate rank for him, immense leadership but will always be on the frontline, next to his sidekick Corporal Fabrice.

We also decided Klasnic was more of a Duke.

From now on I think we should refer to him as Nidge?

I have mate called Nigel and that's how we nickname him.

Typing out Nigel Reo Coker is tiresome and NRC is a bit impersonal?

On a bit of a tangent, who calls their son 'Nigel'? Sick.

It's better than Rupert

NRC has miss managed by bad man managers in the last few years. He has all the attributes to be a very good PL player(not great). He just needs to be played and encouraged. For free he is a steal. If they are both fit him and Holden will form the best midfield partnership outside the top 6.

You are of course right in saying we shouldn't change a winning team JAH but let's face it we'll face far tougher opposition over the next few weeks.

IMO Kev WILL come up short against better defences and we need someone younger and faster. It's my honest opinion that SKD has been on the wane for a year or more and that part of that is down to the fact he's been pretty much undroppable. That needs to change for the sake of the club as a whole and although I bow to no one in my respect and admiration for him and the job he's done for us we are already late (again in my opinion) in planning for life without him. I know he had a good game on Saturday but in all honesty I still believe he's past his best and would now best be utilised as an impact sub. Sorry if you think it's heresy but as fine a job as Kevin has done I believe it's time for someone else to come in. If not N'gog then someone with pace and youth on their side.

Another great signing from the gaffer.
