Dont think its shan at all, Marshall is experienced enough to take it on the chin, if Hanlon gets injured or dropped then he will likely get the captaincy back, providing he remains as our no1

Maybe reading too much into this - couldn’t this mean DM is not starting the season as No. 1?

If not necessarily being captain, I think it's hugely beneficial to have a goalkeeper who acts like a captain - barking out orders, maybe being slightly older and having the respect of all the players.
Marshall can still play a very important senior player role without having an armband on.

Cue the jumbos to appoint 3 captains .One with badges !
it might have been a debate discussed among coaching staff and senior players during the prep /warm up games.
Or maybe David intimated to Lee he should give it to an experienced out field player
And Lee has!
No conspiracy :greengrin
Good luck,Captain Paul !

Agree should be doing that anyway.

It would indicate that. I wonder if we are looking to offload him as he’ll be on a big wage. Would be odd to have him as back up

That’s my take on it.

2 of the last 4 world cup winning captains are goalies. 1 of the others is currently Bayern Munich Captain. Think the person and their personality is a bit more important than their position.

He didn’t complain when it was taken off Paul last season

Well deserved appointment for Paul Hanlon
Mr Hibs and Mr Consistency
Never lets us down leads by example and puts his body on the line for the cause playing many times when obviously not fully fit
Captain Courageous
A reset for Big Marsh who can now concentrate on rediscovering his early season form of last season
Great to see but a bit Shan for Marshall
Why? He should never have had it in the 1st place.

He probably should’ve been made captain last season too looking back on it. Glad he’s got it now.

Good luck,Captain Paul !Groucho as captain, Harpo as pretend captain in case anyone from EUFA is looking in, and Chico to go up to collect the League cup when they finally get that monkey off their back?
Other comedic trios are available.
